BronyCon is a wrap! · 3:30am Aug 10th, 2015

And oh what a time it was! So very different from 2012 when I was just starting out in the fandom and was wandering through the Meadowlands looking vaguely lost and having only a very few people to look forward to seeing. Baltimore was night and day in that regard; I met so many wonderful people in Quills and Sofas (thanks, AppleJinx!) that to even begin to list them will put me at distinct risk of forgetting one of you and causing a slight, so I'm not going to try because I am a paranoid

BronyCon! · 8:05pm Jul 16th, 2015

God willing an' the creek don't rise, I will be at BronyCon (August 7-9, Baltimore Convention Center) this year! Unlike BABSCon, I'm actually a panelist for this one, so absent all other means of contacting me you can come see me there, along with (I think, unless the lineup's changed) GaryOak, totallynotabrony, Aquaman and ABagOfVicodin[1], all discussing the writing of horse comedy. Unfortunately, last I checked, the schedule has not been finalized, so I can't actually tell you which day

Slight Chapter Delay · 3:06am Jul 27th, 2018

As you probably know, I write So, You Wanna be a Princess at the behest of Canary in the Coalmine. Each chapter is reviewed by him before it is posted so he can make sure it meets his expectations for the story as he requested it to be. Since Canary will be attending a convention this week, and had an extremely busy day today he was unable to see the chapter before he has to leave. Therefore, there will not be a chapter posted this week.

My BronyCon Experince · 12:01am Aug 11th, 2015

Hey guys! So I attended BronyCon this past Saturday and I had an amazing time. Me and my sister were able to meet a ton of cool people and see some interesting panels. Me and my sister met M.A. Larson, John De Lancie, Kazumi Evans, Andria Libman, Ratchetness, Alex Side, PieDislikerSwag, MastMax888, Nowacking, EileMonty, Ink Rose, AnimatedJames and so many more awesome people. It was my first convention and I had an amazing time. Will I go again next year? I would love too, but I some what doubt

LTUE Tomorrow! · 7:11pm Feb 15th, 2017

Just a quick reminder, but Life, The Universe, and Everything, the writing con of writing cons, starts tomorrow, and if you're not there, well ...

You're missing out. Seriously. LTUE is the writing experience to go to, and it's not to be missed.

Signal Boost: The elephant in the equine room · 1:16pm Dec 31st, 2017

While this may not be the best of ways to close down with 2017, it still is something of pivotal importance. Go read this -->post<-- from horizon. It is unpleasant but necessary. Even more so when many of us will go to parties tonight.

There will be pleasant stuff coming soon next year. In the meanwhile, stay safe and have a wonderful ending of a year.

Guter Rutsch.

Sadly I can't make it to BUCK con this year, which is a bit gutting considering it's the last one :pinkiesad2: But to everyone who is going, have an awesome weekend, and tell me all about it when you get back!

Trotcon Upcoming · 3:30am Jul 14th, 2017

I'm getting super excited for Trotcon tomorrow! I hope to buy some fun stuff and meet new friends. That said, I will be working for a large chunk of it in the game room as well as helping a friend at a vendor booth.
Anyway, I am super excited!
Good night!

Online Convention · 2:29am Mar 29th, 2020

Despite being locked down and stuck at home, I've managed to attend a pony con: PonyFest Online

A lot more fun than I expected. Not the same as going to an In-Real-Life con, but still a great way to pass a day that would otherwise be unbearably dull, and probably spent on housework.

The Massive Ponyville Ciderfest 2023 Wrap-Up Report · 7:27pm Nov 22nd, 2023

As of this writing it is now Wednesday after Ponyville Ciderfest 2023, and I've had a few days to sort of process my thoughts a little. This weekend was one for the history books, but also one that was intensely personal to myself and even my wife.

UK Ponycon in October · 12:54pm Sep 9th, 2015

http://ukponycon.co.uk/ - convention in Leicester on October 10th/11th.

I'm going! Sadly I can't stay for the whole thing, but I'll be down for the main part of the convention (10-6) on Saturday 10th. I know it's not 100% Friendship is Magic focused, but I figured there's still going to be a lot of bronies there, some cool cosplay, music and merch, and possibly some FiM panels.

Fiesta Equestria!: What happens at FE!, stays at FE!.... hopefully · 8:12pm Jun 28th, 2015

I learned many things this weekend at the Fiesta Equestria convention, and I thought it would be nice to share

1) I should never be allowed into fanfic creation panels. Especially when the only goal is making a bunch of random crackfics. It's like letting Sauron forge the one ring. It leads to incredibly awesome power that shakes the very foundation of the earth, but it's also a /very/ bad idea.

Like last year, we’re giving out six special awards, each of which comes with a $20 Amazon gift code!

Nightmare Nights · 4:51pm Oct 18th, 2016

It's hardly unusual for me to go to a convention- after all, that's where most of my income originates, in a dealer's room.

But I've decided to go to Dallas this weekend, using credit card points, for Nightmare Nights... and NOT sell things.

(Well, that last bit was decided for me. I applied as a vendor months ago and wasn't accepted.)

@ BABSCon 2016 · 12:43am Apr 24th, 2016

Been here since before 8am. Spent an ungodly amount of money on swag. Prints (so freaking many), books, shirts, miniatures, pins, plushies, toys...hell, drinking glasses...

At the hotel recuperating before the concert tonight. Making the most out of our one day!

Can't wait to share the photos I took! Ran into some great cosplayers. :rainbowkiss:

So ... Everfree Northwest? · 3:59pm Feb 27th, 2018

One of the things I had vaguely at the back of my head for 2018 was to try out a con. Or, well, a PONY con, more specifically.

I mean, I've been to various gaming/other nerdery conventions before, but this would be the first time I'd admit to my magic horse cartoon fanfiction career in public. And yes, the term "closeted" comes to mind. I may go in disguise of some sort. Shut up. I'll be like the Thomas Pynchon of FiMFiction.

EQLA: the not-so-great part (and pictures!) · 7:32am Sep 11th, 2015

My previous post mentioned some of the epic parts of EQLA. And there really were some. Bonnie Zacherle and Lauren Faust will never meet again for the very first time. That's a historic moment in the fandom, right there. However, since my colleague Mr. Melnipony has mentioned it, and since I was going to

DOOOOOOM. And a decision. · 12:13pm Aug 5th, 2018

At lack of anything better to do with my lazy Saturday afternoon, I found myself watching the pony cartoon show on Netflix. "The Art of the Dress," to be specific-- it's actually really, really interesting to compare the animation & voice work of the early seasons to the later ones. Things just seem to skew a bit younger-- or maybe the cast just haven't mastered their roles yet? It's worth going back to, I will say.
