So, little known fact, (or widely known if you pay attention to how I gush about Bronypalooza every year in my Bronycon retrospectives) but I love the music this fandom produces. So much so that I've been collecting a playlist of it for years. Since 2011 I've been, across an MP3 player, three smart phones, four laptops, and many, *many* new OS installations on a single desktop tower, been keeping a set of MP3s of my favorite fandom music, starting all the way back with the absolute classic
24,331 words.
That is the present length of Mistletrapped, whose first draft I have, at long last, completely finished, all the way through the epilogue.
I’m going to be editing it over the next few days, but you should expect the entire rest of that story to be posted somewhere within the space of the next week or so.
Hey, guys!
A quick TL;DR for those that haven't seen Forgotten Friendship: a new Compati chapter is out! Go read it!
For those that have seen Forgotten Friendship (or those that don't mind a few light spoilers), below the break are a few things I felt like touching on just because.
Okay, I seriously need a break from everything. Internet, YouTube, stories, technology, everything.

For some reason (which might or might not have involved a bribe), I’ve been considered horse famous enough to be a community guest at Everfree Northwest!
This is quite indubitably the greatest My Little Pony fan creation of all time. A more perfect trinity of effort, quality, and shitpost cannot mathematically exist. That more know not of its existence is one of modern life's greatest tragedies. But now at least you do!
Hey I know I promised an update two weeks ago but this month has been really rough for me. I fell off my meds for a while and a lot of stuff piled up that I had to deal with that I just couldn't find a muse to keep writing until recently. I'm going to try and finish the next bit by the end of the month, and once that's done it should be easier to get back into the flow of our regularly scheduled programming.
Stay tuned.
Calling Loving Submission a mistake may have been a tad bit premature on my part...

Somehow, a friend thought I might find this both amusing and relevant.
Please note, though, that not all of the negative feedback I've ever received on a story was of this type. Not by far!
This story’s weird in that I don’t have a lot to talk about regarding it, but I will start at the beginning.
To anyone out there, waiting in the void, I have good news.
Go find yourself a calendar or diary, or use the calendar on your phone. Count the days and weeks until June 16th.

I was planning on making a summer retrospective blog when I had the time, and maybe put out a few reviews on some of the many horse books I’ve accumulated throughout the pandemic. I’m almost as behind on those as I am with revising my to-be-printed works and writing my ongoing stories.
How have you guys been? My day has been pretty awesome and sober! This morning, I woke up and went to a workshop to start my college applications. When I got home, I continued to read a book. Reading isn't always my cup of tea, but I can enjoy a good book every once in a while. Plus I feel obligated to read it since a good friend lent it to me over a year ago and I never returned it...

No, really, I can. Even when I haven't had much of anything to show for it lately, I'm writing and that does mean that I haven't quit. I've never been the best at using these blogs to connect to people like other users on the site, but if you had been worried that I had forgotten something, downgraded to a lurker, or something else, then I haven't. What I have been doing is working on packing and everything else that comes with a move, and have been working on various tasks for this over the
