Read It Later Reviews #63 – Who Has Time for Laziness?; The Dusty Trail; A Good Trot, Spoiled; A “Warm” Distraction; Two Cups of Tea · 10:59pm Jan 23rd, 2017

Apparently the answer to that first question is me, given that the first two reviews in this set were from a Read It Now set that I let sit for so long it ended up Read It Later. But I felt like reading some stories yesterday evening to round out a set.

Let’s get cracking.

Today’s stories:

Who Has Time for Laziness? by Minds Eye
The Dusty Trail by Unicorncob
A Good Trot, Spoiled by Estee
A “Warm” Distraction by Alchemicgree

Read It Later Reviews #18 – Treehouse, Fluttershy has Tea with Jesus, Open to Interpretation!, Burning Man Brony: Fear and Loathing in Equestria, A Princess by Any Other Name · 10:46pm May 15th, 2015

Yesterday, I read the entirety of Mort and several works of pony fanfiction, and added a thousand words to Mistletrapped.

Today, I read the better half of Pyramids and several works of pony fanfiction, and shall add another thousand words, if not more, to Mistletrapped.

Seems I’ve had a couple of pretty good days here, doubly so as I enjoyed several of today’s stories.

Today’s stories:

Treehouse by Present Perfect

Read It Later Reviews #3 – Dream, Dear Mom, Warpigs, Let Them Eat Grass, Operation Hearts and Hooves Day · 11:00pm Dec 8th, 2014

Given that I’ve been doing this for a few weeks now, I think it would probably be wise for me to sort of explain the rating system I’ve been using here.

Read It Later Reviews #74 – Twice Shy, The Best of Tensions, Hurricane Watch, Appellation Mountains, A Teatime Visit · 8:42pm May 3rd, 2017

Wow, it has been a while since I posted a review set.

I’ve actually been sitting on most of this review set for almost a month for no good reason. I’ve read a few stories here and there, but I’ve been trying to convince myself that I was going to get my next story done Soon, and thus should be working on that. I’ve also been somewhat avoiding the site because I managed to fall behind on season 7, having not yet watched a single episode from it.

Read It Later Reviews #53 – In Her Majesty’s Absence, When There Are No More Stories To Tell, Chocolate Talk, Are You A Bad Pony?, “Thanks, Mom” · 8:28pm Jul 31st, 2016

While clearing out my “Read It Now” bookshelf of stories which were more than a month old, I ended up noticing a number of stories that I had put off reading that had what seemed to be intriguing premises and got sucked into reading them instead of cleaning out my bookshelf.

Oh, well.

Read It Later Reviews #34 – The New Crop, One Tenth-Bit, The Changeling of the Guard, Through the Eyes of a Soldier: Taking Hill 790, The Little Things · 10:41pm Oct 22nd, 2015

The Royal Guard is forever searching, forever seeking, and as one of its baleful eyes, so am I.

Though, ironically, I have about twice the pass rate of the average Royal Guard reviewer. So much for hating everything. :trixieshiftright:

Today we have three stories from the queue, along with two other pieces that I selected for my own reading enjoyment.

The New Crop by xjuggernaughtx

Read It Later Reviews #79 – Twice As Bright, Sparkle Date Me, “Special” Delivery, The Bounce Test, Shut Up · 7:06pm Jun 27th, 2017

Back in April, I started on a set of Read It Now reviews. I ended up reading a couple stories for it, and then forgetting I had started a review set and never finishing it.

Today, as I went to read some recent stories, I realized that I had an unfinished review set, and as it wasn’t really quite timely, I merged it into this.

Read It Later Reviews #27 – Farewell, X is a Changeling, Experience, For Ages and Ages to Come, Shoots and Roots · 1:17am Aug 19th, 2015

I managed to get sick this last weekend. It was a really rapid onset; within three hours I went from feeling totally fine to shivering uncontrollably, my head, shoulders, and arms aching, and a 102.8F fever which persisted for two days, along with some wonderful intestinal symptoms.

And then, today, I felt way better. Go figure.

Oh well, onto the pony fanfiction!

Read It Later Reviews #67 – Sanctity of Life; Hay-oh, Welcome to Hayburger; Customer Service; Princess Luna’s School for Gifted Young Alicorns; What Cats Know · 9:16pm Feb 1st, 2017

It has been a long time since I managed to get multiple review sets done in advance, and yet, here I find myself with two Read It Later review sets that I got done before I had posted either of them.

The last set’s epilogue ended with me noting I should read stories off my high priority bookshelf… so naturally, I immediately disregarded that advice and just read some stories on a whim.

Let’s see how it goes, shall we?

Pardon my dust, it has been a while since I last posted one of these. Been spending far too much time doing things that matter far less and feel very ephemeral in retrospect.

But no matter! Time to get cracking.

Today’s stories:

Petriculture by Kwakerjak
Acquiesce by HoofBitingActionOverload

Read It Later Reviews #69 – Cutie Mark Crusaders Alpha Pack Leader; Sweet Nothings; Rapunzbelle; The Truth Is…, A Long Time Coming · 11:08pm Mar 10th, 2017

I actually got this review set done before I reviewed Eternal, but I hung onto it so my 1000th posted review would be something special (I’ve actually got most of a Read It Now set done, too).

But with that now read and posted, time to post this!

Today’s stories:

Cutie Mark Crusaders Alpha Pack Leader by Estee

Apparently getting sick means that after I recover, I become more powerful productive.

I knew it was worth picking up the Anime Protagonist perk at level 1.

Heat of the Summer’s Sun by Rocinate

Read It Later Reviews #54 – Thanks, Mom; There’s a Changeling Under My Bed; Blankets; It Doesn’t Matter Now; A Brief History of Time · 9:22pm Aug 25th, 2016

Well, it seems folks are pretty happy with My Fluttering Heart on the whole. It was fun coming up with a personality for a seven-and-a-half year old Flurry Heart, as well as packing as much foreshadowing into Flurry Heart’s perspective as I could. Not to mention the dad jokes. Thanks to everyone who has read that story, and thanks especially to you who talked to me about it; I appreciate it.

Read It Later Reviews #78 – Goosed!, Stupid Direction-Face, Sick Little Ponies (And One Dragon), The Remainders of the Day, Twilight’s Escort Service · 6:54pm Jun 26th, 2017

Estee has written a lot of stories, and I’ve ended up reviewing a lot of things they’ve written. As I was writing this, I believed that I was down to the last five (finished) stories in the Triptych verse, and so I decided to devote a review set to finishing out Estee’s stories.

Turns out I miscounted, and there’s still one more left.

Read It Later Reviews #61 – Silver Spanner gets her Cutie Mark, Variables, The Art of the Derp, The Sisters and the Dragon, Numberography · 12:39am Nov 10th, 2016

I am only operating at a fraction of my total productivity – I got almost nothing done yesterday – but I did manage to get another review set done (well, apart from Read It Now #100, a very special read it now).

There’s so much more I could do if only I could focus myself better.
