Howdy hoo. Today I'm going to wrap up the entries for the 'Peace' category with Fit for a King, and then move onto a story which struck me as a promising competitor story, The Seneschal. Both I thought were pretty good, and both for different reasons!

SirNotAppearingInThisFic pointed out an interesting pattern I hadn’t noticed before. For the past four years, I’ve hosted a contest in September.

We've got another Not-A-Contest fic here, this one by BlueBook. You might remember his previous entry, Team Boat (if you don't, you should read that one, too). It's got things I love in it--obscure or forgotten tech, actual facts, and boats!

Meant to post this a few days ago, but there's still plenty of time on this.

It's April, which means it's time for the annual Horror Write-Off I run every year, Nightmare Night in April!

The event is simple: in order to encourage more horror writing, I hold a write-off event in which anyone can submit a Horror Story, to be compiled by April 30th, the opposite day of the year from Halloween!

Hiya, lovely peeps!

How have ya’ll been? It has been a while since I’ve been really active here on the site. As such, I figured it is time to update you all on where I currently stand, site-wise. There are a lot of news, so let’s enumerate them.

As Time Goes By is my first foray back into comedy after 'Snug as a bug', 8-9 months of seperation doesn't seem like a lot but it certainly feels an eternity!

The idea of this came from the SunsetxVillains competition requiring a native Equestrian partner for ol' Shimmy. While I had a few ideas floating around (Sombra as a 'Chamber of Secrets' style pen pal to a pre-mirror Sunset held some possibilities I wont lie), I kept gravitating back to Blueblood.

Oh wow, with everything that's been going on, I almost forgot about this!

Every year, in the leadup to April 1st, I try to organize an effort to get stupid and insane stories on the front page for April Fools Day: Operation: Crackfic-Storm!.

Below is my May 2017 submission for the Flashfic Fimfiction group.

There's a limit of 150 words, so I can't publish this by itself. Until I have an anthology of these going, I'll be posting the stories directly in blog entries.

This story was written for the prompt, "Laugh so you don't cry", selected by Pascoite. (What did capital letters ever do to you, Pascoite?!)
