calm down and buy some apples instead of wondering why the leopards are eating your face

I don't like joking about people trusting things I say.

Ta-da!

Before today, I’ve been mainly helping other authors with what little ideas or help I could give them. I proofread and edited quite a few stories, but "Web of Fatal Pleasures" is first story I was able to post on my own account. I would like to take a moment to once again thank Ink Weaver and Mawly-Maws for helping me make this a reality.

*To Ember* “You look well.”

“Y-You too.”

*Puts down the chocolate bar he was eating* “Okay, enough, I can’t watch this anymore. Thorax, would you like to take Ember on a date this weekend?”

“I-I, uh…”

“Simple question, yes or no?”

“Y-Yes, yes I would.”

“Ember, would you like to go?”

The Structure of Derpibooru?

After attending Bad Horse's excellent talk on The Structure of Fimfiction at Trot Con last Friday evening, one of the questions was "why not do the same analysis but for Derpibooru?"

Let's start with

Literature Review

Or, put another way, a comparison of the relevant site features between Fimfiction & Derpi and would affect the social structure of the two sites.

I realize that Twilight's Secret Journal has been delayed for quite a while now. I'm hoping that dry streak will end soon.

Totally innocent.

“So… will you go ou’ with him?”

“Absolutely not.”

“Please Cellyyyyy!”

“I’m sorry, Apex, but no.”

“You don’ un’erstand wha’ you’e doin’!”

“I’m saying no to going out with the guy who has a huge, slightly creepy crush on me.”

With A Sweetie Dream Land's rewriting, I have changed some sizes.

As of the starts of A Sweetie Dream Land, Kirby was 20cm tall. A Waddle Dee is about 30cm, Dedede, about one meter, Meta Knight, over 30cm (maybe 35cm, not sure yet), and Sweetie Void, about 50cm.

By the time of The Forgotten Land, Kirby is 30cm tall, and Sweetie is about 60cm.

The Critic "Hi! I just read your story and made a collated list of grammar and spelling errors. I also made some notes about the plot and characterization."

The Complimenter : "Oh my goodness! I loved this story so much! Keep up the great work can't wait for the next chapter!"

I like to write at least one chapter ahead... usually don't get to on account of my slowness. But this time I wrote a chapter ahead and it was around 70K. I like to divide my chapters up here at between 40 and 50K since longer is harder to load and search through, and shorter is too jerky and noncommittal. Limiting it at 45K or so obliges me to occasionally make sure the scene is clearly established, instead of just running on continuously forever.

Okay, so, we're gonna do a vote. EqG v.s Equestrian, three different times. You have to pick which habit you think is cuter/not as bad for each pair. This is probably stupid but I'm doing it anyway. Here they are:

1.
When upset...

Equestrian Metamorphosis: Bites his lip

EqG Metamorphosis: Tugs his hair

Which one is better?

2.
When upset...

Equestrian Pharynx: Slits his wrists or begins punching/kicking the walls

EqG Pharynx: Swears in Japanese

Which one is better?

“So now I’m supposed to do anything Ocellus does? What if she jumped off a cliff?” 

“If Ocellus jumped off a cliff, she would have done her research regarding the height of the cliff, the depth of the water, and the angle of entry. So yes, if you see Ocellus jump off a cliff, by all means, jump off a cliff.”

“Tell me everything you know about The Fang Gang member Hiv-”

“Princess, no!”

I've discovered what this site is.

Sure, it's a place to get your daily fix of pony, but consider taking that part away. What's left?

Well, this is essentially just some sort of online book club. And you can even interact with the authors of the stories you're discussing with others as well.

I mean, this is probably pretty obvious, but I can't believe I didn't think about that.
