Friends, Fimfic-ians, Countrymen... lend me your ear.
Because Alex is back and finally catching up with this damn show. I know it's been a long time since you've heard from me, and I doubt more than like 3 people even care, but I figured it'd be fun to catch up with the show now that it's come to an end. I feel like I need to get some closure here. Who knows, it might even reignite that spark and get me back into the fandom (but probably not).
I'm betting that no one see's this unless they're looking down a rabbit hole. If you are, hello! Nice to see you, keep digging! If you actually got a notification from this or stumbled across it, how did you find me and why? Most importantly though, is the reason why this blog post exists.
Below are two fanfic reviews based purely on the initial impressions provided by the first chapter (or first 3k words.) For an outline of what my reviewing guidelines are, go here. Please do not request reviews!
Out in the Cold by EsperDerek

Hello! And welcome to my desperate plea for help suggestion box! I will be completely honest, I'm starting to run low on new, origional ideas for my Prank War story. 3 months of updating 3-4 times a week will do that to you.
So, time for audience participation! What kind of pranks do YOU want to see Nick, the Royal sisters, and company bug each other with? Put them here so I can have 'em all in one place. You will be credited for your ideas in the corresponding chapter.
Yet again I've posted a new chapter, yet again it has gotten to the feature box (very bottom this time), and yet again it was quickly kicked out... I counted this time. It stayed there for 5 minutes...
I honestly thing I'm only getting there via technicality. It's been around for so long, after all. It's very likely that it really isn't as good as any other decently written fic, or even close to being popular to warrent a spot.
Well, after I saw this story in the featured box again and again I decided to finally have a look at it.
By the way: This is not an actual review but more akin to a react and — oh what a surprise — there will be spoilers for the first three chapters.
Everybody got that?!
Good.
Now...
Here. We. Go.
Titles are one of the most important parts of any work, in any medium. Titles are the first impression your story gives. When someone recommends a new book or movie to a friend, the title is the only universal part. The title requires conciseness, but must also hint at a lot of ideas and information.
Hey there! I've been in charge of the Submissions thread for the Goodfic Bin for a while now. I forget how long. It's been at least a few months. Anyhoo, because I've seen all manner of submissions (some good, some bad, some interesting, some not) it has come to my attention that I'm not actually half bad at getting a bit of a feel for whether I'm going to like a story solely based on how it is submitted and what it kind of looks like.

Drawing is tedious work for me. If I mess up in the slightest, I will go crazy, more than I already am. Anyways, going to livestream again, so that I can try to finish this drawing before tomorrow's end. So go ahead and come and watch, if you want.
Hey everyone, I figured I’d share with you all my first few days of experience with VR (virtual reality, for those unfamiliar with the acronym), and let you all know what I think, and what my recommendations are.
So. I've located and watched the first installment of Pony Life, and...
Well, it's honestly not that bad.
I don't really know how my story Twilight Has Grey hair gained another spike in views out of nowhere. Is my story somewhere else for others to see it? Is it in the popular tab right now? I have no idea.
I assume some folks on here are lazy weeaboos who can't be arsed to pay for a subscription site like Crunchyroll.
Good for you then, that I do and thus every month get free passes that I am repeatedly nagged to use. Thankfully, this means I can throw them at all of you and hopefully someone will get use out of them

Before I get into the reviews proper, I just want to note: The way I’m doing these is not random--I’m clicking on the last page of my to-read list, and reviewing the stories on the bottom of each page...
I have training tomorrow, and if everything goes well, I should be an official employee. I'm kinda nervous, though, considering it's at a local fast food place... And service jobs aren't really the best kind of jobs.
Hey decided to do a little voice acting video where I imitate the monologue done by a villain from one of my favorite Anime Series, Yu Yu Hakusho.
It's for a character named Elder Toguro who I can do a pretty decent impression of and wanted to try an extended vocal impression. This line of dialogue in particular is probably my favorite from the series, mainly because of how wicked and evil he comes across and I enjoy doing villain roles.
