Yeah, I know all of this happened yesterday, but I was too tired to post a blog on it. Anyway, I'm now at the 100s and my main story is finally finished. This is truly incredible. I'm really happy about this. Everything is going perfectly.

"Horizon!" you might ask as the clock ticks down toward August. "Are you going to be at Bronycon?"
Full details below, but first, I will let the convention's website answer that question:
And this time there's a three in front!
Oh no!
(Oh, and new chapters coming soon)
...does word count affect how likely potential readers will, y'know, actually read it?
Due to recent events, my release schedule will change a bit for this week. Instead of writing a new chapter for "Dreamwalker Dash" and "Letters to Cozy Glow", I will start a new project this week and will focus on that until Sunday.
One very well might think that a story that has not been updated in almost seven years written by an author who has not been seen in several years would be dead.
I thought it was dead, and I'm the author.
I think I was wrong.
The year 2019 probably stands for most people as the last time things were truly ‘normal’ in the world. For me, it was the year I finally committed to my participation in the fanfiction elements of the fandom. At BronyCon 2019, the final BronyCon ever, I submitted ten copies of a fanfiction collection to the BronyCon Bookstore. This was a collaborative event led by
Best Ending ever. I even got to keep the alicorn forme!
Shub-Cadurath and Catastrophe. One is a story about a horrible monstrosity from beyond the veil of reality that reduces ponies to gibbering masses. The other story is about Princess Cadance giving birth to Princess Flurry Heart.
This was a rather eclectic set of stories; from a story with tiny cover art to a story about edible ears to a story about nursing, folks come up with some of the strangest things these days.
A few things have come to my attention that I felt a need to talk about, if only so I can talk about something on this blog for once. For starters, the Season 10 Bingo Writing Contest has just concluded and the results have come in. My story, Marewell, My Lovely, didn't get any honors, but the reaction to it seems to have been
So just a quick update.
From the 29th of August - 18th of December, I will be attending a sort of course, which means I will have to live on the facility. I will still have free time to write and stuff, but my time tables will move a bit, and it will take a lot of getting used while I'm there. New schedule and all, not to mention new people, and writing on a laptop instead of comfortably stationary computer...
And once more, we have arrived on Hearth's Warming Eve. It's time to celebrate Equestria's discovery, foundation and the peace, unity and friendship between the three pony tribes of Equestria again. And their friendship is especially important this year, after everypony just got reminded on the consequences that hatred and disharmony have:

Aaaand we’re finally here.
What can I say, folks – it’s been a journey. I almost feel emotional writing this announcement.
This contest literally started as me idly muttering “would be cool to make one of those m’self one day” in a public chat. And now look at this! Forty-seven entries, more than four thousand views in the original announcement, we took over the featured box, and overall? I’m sure we all had a lot of fun.
Celestia smiled at the little gesture. “You’re right. Like the weasel you are, you’ve worked your way into my heart.”
Don’t scream don’t scream don’t scream don’t scream don’t scream don’t scre
“But… is it… love?”
She drew in a sharp breath. “Yes.”
That same finger now quickly tapped as if he were trying to listen for something within. “There’s love for me in there?”
My stories need ideas that are more out of the box. Something unexpected, yet still fitting to the story I write. Something readers won't reckon with when they look at the story from the outside or read the first few chapters. Something like this hasn't been in my stories so far. Even my biggest hit "Princess Flurry Heart, Destroyer of Worlds!" has, while offering a few
