Anypony up late tonight?

Wanna hear me read a story for 45 minutes?

Welp, my reading of Sugarcube in the Corner is finally complete. If you're game, check it out here!

(Please be patient with me. I'm a total beginner at audio presentations and I have no appropriate equipment. I quite literally recorded this on my cell phone mic.)

One of the fundamental eccentricities of fanfiction is the way it is published. Because everything tends to be self-published, centralized, and loosely moderated, removing a story from circulation is a lot easier than in traditional publishing. Taking down a story is often a simple click of a button.

For today’s meandering discussion, let’s talk about de-publishing stories.

So, with the recent update to http://beta.modmcdl.com offering access to stories that aren't related to MLP, we also decided you should be able to review and rate them.

Tomorrow is going to be a hellacious day at work, so I've been hitting the bottle a little again. I'm not really drunk, but just drunk enough to think that it's a good idea to write this blog in transliteral Russian...because when I look back at it tomorrow, I might as well get some study in. Also because I'm studying Russian so any excuse I can get is worthwhile.

You can print things in 50ft letters. It's all there, Black and white, clear as crystal, they even NARRATE the quote out loud, and yet they still prefer to be morons and contradict what they just read and their own mockeries.

I'll use TV Tropes for this one... (Since it was written by those morons)

The Dark Angels kidnap men filled with misery and take them away from their friends and family.

that is the most common, and stupidest

Strings is a Pegasus Pony. He is a singer, songwriter, musician; known best for writing songs about romance, tragedy, and heartbreak. He is also a hopeless yet depressed romantic, as is hopelessly in love with Princess Cadance, though he knows they can never be.

O-righty, 'den, my fellow Brethren! I hath got an announce of ment to speaketh to thee about!

I was reading a story by Grimm, sexy guy, and said story was named Don't Open the Door. So, I read it, and considering that I'm a massive enthusiast of horror stories, I figured I'd try my hand at speaking in a low, almost-alluring voice through my microphone like on of those sketchy radio show hosts, and I'd release it for Halloween.

What fanfiction have you guys made that had the best and most compelling writing so far in terms of plot, characterization, prose, emotion, humor, etc.?

Hey. Kids. I have my first new fanfic in like a million years.

It's not here though. Since Knighty still hasn't gotten general fiction up and running, I'm forced to put it somewhere else. It's on AO3 right now, but I'll probably crank it up on Fanfiction.net eventually. Maybe I'll even post it as a blog post later. I dunno.

Looks like he still thinks the only way to find happiness and truly be accepted is "Suck it, up, get over it, and move on."

...Yuck!

He doesn't seem to realize that I'm going to make it a No-Win for Snapshot and the gang ANY WAY...

First of all, let's look at the situation...

Well if they aren't, then they're just being clingly and selfish.

As a request from Perfectly Insane, I was tasked with creating a reading of one of his stories, Fake Smiles, and I hope the reading will fulfil all of your sad and dark needs! Go and check him out if you're a fan of that kind of stuff!

Here's the link to the reading on my channel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHbWGxNh_JE&t=11s

Wow, even TV Tropes is contradicting their own tropes and seriously overlooking things.

Friendship is Failure #20: A Hearths Warming I'll never forget.

I created that fanfic for two specific reasons...

1: Most of all, I could finally wail on Twilight Sparkle the way Quagmire wailed on Brian; voicing why I loathe her so much so I can make her upset... and crush her Hearths Warming Spirit.

Hmmm...

but also has them ignoring the numerous times she's saved Equestria from certain destruction and has gone out of her way to help many individuals time and time again.

Which can still mean... practically NOTHING to anyone.

In my personal view, being a Hero/Savior and being a Good/Decent Person are completely different things.

Let's start with Raven...

Something a bit unusual this week. I’ve had more and more review stories pile up on my backlog lately from an Ponyfic audiobook reader that isn’t Scribbler, and I figured, why not do an edition of exclusively fics read by them? It gives me the chance to also talk about the quality and quirks of their readings. That reader being StraightToThePointStudio.

As hinted previously, I’ve run out of energy with doing Commentary Corner for Tell Your Tale shorts every week. And while most shorts do have something unique to say, it’s still largely just frustration of the “what are you doing, writers?!?” variety. So, as of this week, I’ve decided to scale them back; rather than a play-by-play commentary, Friendship Is Card Games style, it’s more of a standard recap and impression.

Another thing I get so incredibly irritated with that this person I'm dealing with... she keeps going off at me that, "At least I try to simulate free will. You on the other hand give no free will at all to your characters, and instead you make them do things like a control-freak."

Mixed February for this spirit so far; been perpetually under-the-weather for two weeks now, just enough to take regular painkillers. I’ve had it worse, but it’s always gone quicker than this. On the other hand, good experiences with friends lately, what it’s all about, and while I haven’t made much of any progress on the writing front lately, the torch is still burning on the development cycle. So, not much, but not nothing.

My favorite FIF character, STONE HEART, committed a few crimes himself, but I constantly receive complaints (Namely from my detractors) that all he got was a slap on the wrist (He wasn't punished severely enough.)

...Yeah... that's right. He did get a slap on the wrist, and I'm also about to label his crimes and the circumstances surrounding it.
