On Deleting a Blog Post · 2:15pm Dec 24th, 2019

Today I did something that seems wrong, but necessary. I deleted my most recent blog post. Now I know that in theory at least blogs are supposed to me one's thoughts in real time, unvarnished and true. So why does one do such a thing?

Ho Mah Gawd, Humans Resplendent · 12:10pm Jan 11th, 2017

"Hmm. Going by these blogs, Knighty released some new character tags. Well, it's about time.

"Ah. There they are. Uh huh, uh huh. Doesn't seem like too much to— Wait. There are different tags for the human and pony versions of the Mane Six!?

"Knighty.

"Knighty, why." :raritydespair:

So yeah, given how I need to leave for work in about half an hour, don't expect all of my stories to be fully up to date or reflect the proper horse/ape distinction quite yet.

How will this end? · 12:42am Sep 10th, 2019

I've been following some of the chatter about the most recent season, mainly because I've been reluctant to watch it. It seems odd when you look back at it, to create the School of Friendship, and introduce us to the Young Six, and then push them to the sidelines because their headmare is about to become ruler of Equestria. And are we really to believe that our heroes will still be able to live their lives, continue to teach, and also rule Equestria in some capacity alongside Twilight? It was

Life and fiction · 2:37pm Feb 23rd, 2018

Was reading the comments section of a clopfic (which I am prone to do before deciding whether to go further) and I was struck by a passage that hoped somehow for cosmic justice. I have seen several stories over my time on this site that left me wishing for the same thing, which is hardly a comment meant for all clopfics. But let's face it, some of those stories are pretty hardcore.

Losing my nerve · 2:20am Feb 4th, 2019

Got myself into another debate about the movie. I know, probably not a good idea, as those who have seen the movie seem to be in any number of camps. I personally think that there were a lot of issues with the plot, but I haven't yet gotten the sense that there are many people out there that share that sentiment. And getting into arguments about it I'm afraid may bring negative attention to what I've written. It all kind of reminds one of politics these days, in some ways a bit too much. How do

Strange Brew · 2:48pm Feb 25th, 2019

I've been looking at some of the stories again, killing a bit of time while I procrastinate about my current story, and I've noticed once again something I find disturbing. That is, the tendency of so many stories to generalize behaviors over entire groups. I had thought that things like this were limited to certain clop-fics, but I've found it showing up in other places as well, even to a certain degree in the MLP movie. And for me at least, it raises the question of just how the ponies of

The Rise of "Anon" · 2:17pm Jan 21st, 2019

I've been trying to keep an eye on some of the new stories coming on to the site recently. It's great to see that interest in our favorite story line hasn't diminished, but there is one thing that I find a bit odd, the widespread use of anonymous characters. I've always felt that naming a character is quite important (in fact, I've made it a habit of using the names of famous race horses for my original characters. Hopefully it doesn't get me in trouble) O.K., maybe I just answered my own

The Existence Spell Worked? · 2:43pm Nov 20th, 2021

It's interesting to see some Gen 5 stuff going on here on the site. Now I know it's not just Friendship is Magic on here, even though G5 is technically the same universe. Anyways, this blog post is to show that I have returned to the site. I might post a NEW series of fictions which will be a new GX story, even though some of the characters referenced are from different universes altogether from it. I have thought about doing this for a couple days now, so I decided to post to show

Appreciate the Difference · 3:23pm Feb 27th, 2020

Yesterday, just as a change of pace, I shut off my access to adult rated stories. I know, it's not the best choice, as I will miss out on some stories that deal with mature themes. But I was just getting turned off by all the porn that seems to proliferating on the site (or at least that's what it looks like). And I get that it's a major part of the fanbase, and I'm not advocating the idea of turning everything here into G rated fluff. (And I do read some of it, and not just for the drama) But

The value of feedback · 2:25pm Dec 9th, 2019

I was just flipping through some of my old blog posts today, and I was puzzling over the lack of feedback. Not that I'm that surprised that blog posts don't tend to get much, and it's not like I'm that popular a writer and have thousands hanging on my every word. I myself rarely comment on blog posts, except recently to make a suggestion or two or in one case try to send a word of encouragement to a young writer who's going through a rough patch. I guess I don't understand how a blog is

Something is Coming · 3:09am Nov 17th, 2022

I've been plowing ahead these last few days on the long delayed next chapter of "Danger Close", and I think I can say that it will be finished by next week. I should ideally feel a certain sense of pride, were it not for the fact that it has taken me close to two years to get this far. It's not that surprising as such things go. There are a lot of stories out there that have stalled out over the years, basically because life goes on, and distractions come up in life. I hope that there is still

A simple update · 6:48am Feb 6th, 2016

So, to anyone who actually check out my blog, not that I usually have much to say, I do have a stories coming slowly down the pipeline. It's not that I haven't been focused just well, more distracted I should say. But hey, who hasn't had that excuse.

A list of fics that i have been working on here and there.

Luna's contemplation (one-shot with Luna and Celestia and a winter cottage and stars)

Three Words · 12:10am Sep 1st, 2017

Specifically, what3words, a global addressing system that assigns every ten foot-by-ten foot square of the Earth's surface its own unique set of three random words. It's been around for a few years, but I only just became aware of it. Why am I mentioning it?

The Puzzle of the "Monomyth" · 5:10pm Nov 25th, 2018

I'm in the middle of a discussion with a artist on DeviantArt about MLP:TM. He went through the story and compared it to stories like the Harry Potter series, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars, in terms of the formula used and the quest concept of one hero surviving trials and saving the day. It rings very true in terms of how the movie was constructed, and the plot elements that were used. But I had to admit to him that the formula didn't work for me.

life during a pandemic · 9:34am May 11th, 2020

Hey guys. I'm still alive and covid-free. I hope everyone is holding up okay during these troubling times. My family and I are managing fairly well. We feel it like everyone else does, but in light of what some have gone through, we've been fortunate so far.

Is anyone out there? · 1:15am Nov 27th, 2019

I have many ideas for stories I can write, but only recently have I created a working system to be able to write them all...:fluttershysad:

With the end of Gen. 4, is there anyone still here who will read our tales of adventure, love, and heroism (or...you know...tales of normal pony life)?...

*shakes head* Wha?! Oh right, the blog post.

You may have noticed the new avatar! It's a picture a good friend of mine made for me at my request.

Zephyr Heights Politics · 1:44am Oct 17th, 2021

Queen Haven was placed under arrest, and a warrant was issued for Princesses Zipp and Pipp as well. Obviously, this is not an off-with-their-heads absolute monarchy, and that is a good thing. However, one cannot help but wonder what manner of checks and balances Zephyr Heights has that allows the tables to be turned almost instantaneously.
