Well, despite what I said about putting a focus on novel work...I can't not do a Hearth's Warming fic. I've been doing them for years now!

So anyway, enjoy a quick little nod to the season, probably on the 24th. Enjoy, and Happy Holidays, ponies

So, I'm back at work, and they are cracking the whip even though 50 of our stores are closed, so one would think the warehouse should not be so busy.

At any rate, I don't get much writing done before the weekend. I am working on a mini story, not a deep and detailed plot, just a small slice of life including the CMC. So nothing much other than that happening with me. Happy Wednesday. ^^

First scene, we have that one image of Princess Sparkle that became a meme.
Second scene, we see Ditzy (a.k.a. Derpy) working with mail and offering muffins.

Oh boy, this is it, isn't it? They day when canon will look back at fanon and say "You! Yes, you!" and the headbutt contest will begin.

Rose: Let the record show that he had to watch the episode three times before he could even being to formulate an opinion.

She's right. In all honesty, this episode is pretty much fanservice incarnate. And I expect the reviewers to be very decisive on that subject. As for me, wellllll.

Horatio accidentally pours vinegar on a small cut on his hoof while cooking.

"Whoa, that feels good!"

Thoughtful pause.

"Wait, no it doesn't! Ow!"

They say you always go back to the classics — and today's story digs back all the way to Equestrian antiquity.

If you hadn’t noticed, I’ve spent the last 72 hours avoiding posting anything like an opinion about this episode, on either my blog or anyone else’s. My friend kept talking over the episode while we watched, so I missed a lot of stuff the first time through and wanted to give it a second chance before I made any decisions.

A tad late, but only because I was on vacation. Now that I have returned, I'm free to give you my thoughts on Slice of Life. And, oh boy, do I have some thoughts on this one.

Spoilers. You have been warned.

Well, I come back from having lunch with my son and wife (it’s -20 C out there!) and find Angels in the Snow sitting in the (admittedly non-mature only) Featured Box!

My thanks to those kind readers out there who liked this little story about a way-in-the-background pony!

This one involving an OC named Marigold and our dear Rainbow Dash.

It's a bit of a commentary on life and how perspective can really truly make or break a moment.

Well, I promised I would bring more Slice of life, feely goodness your way readers, and here I am to deliver.

<More to come soon.

The story is good forsooth.

This is something I've wanted to work into a story for a long while, even came up with a fairly decent character/opening for it, but could never advance it past a preliminary snippet. I honestly don't think I quite have the chops for it yet.

The long awaited sequel to Where's My Daddy is finished and edited by TheDizzyDan who spelling million times than mine. So the story will be out by tomorrow, and well I hope it does well. It fixes all the old problems of Where's My Daddy and adds Fluttercord stuff, it not a romance because it still based on the episode Keep Calm and Flutter On and now thinking about it, I think there are only three lines in this story that are in the episode. That's is something, well I hope you all enjoy this

Hey everybody,

after months of putting it off again and again, I finally managed to finish a story that has been incomplete for a long time over the holidays.

It's a slice of life story about everyone's favorite nerd alicorn, Twilght Sparkle. There's some world building going on, especially concerning alicorns. There's also lots of Twilight going mad. I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

See you all,
Neff

Another Wednesday, and we know what that means - another story posted. This time it's "One-Sided Conversation" by Rambling Writer, showing us that ignorance... isn't necessarily bliss.

Enjoy!
