Just going to leave some cute, background pone here. Giving off that look.
Today's discussion is about a very old cliche. It is so ubiquitous that I'm many of you have encountered it in multiple places before. Just because it is commonplace, however, doesn't mean that we can't examine it and try to do better.
I've never really looked at my own body of work and tried to suss out a general theme. As far as I know, I don't really have an identity as far as what I write, at best having one for how I write. I don't know that you could sum my work on Fimfiction up in one sentence, the way you could say that Majin Syeekoh writes irreverent comedy with intermittent navel-gazing, or that Carapace and friends write fluffy romances about the contrast between sour and sweet. Of course, if you can, feel free. I
...that owls eating meat, and Spike framing Owlowiscious for the brutal murder of a mouse, is an actual plot point in Owl's Well That Ends Well. I'm not sure if this makes my story more, or less, canon compliant.
I'm about to get really, really real here guys. So if You don't want to read my venting, stop reading now. Okay? Okay.
I am feeling 99.9% better and got my writing rhythm back in force this week. While it isn't for The Prince's New Sweater, it is for Mad Seeress of the North and that story is seriously overdue for an update, so why the hell not?

I have a new story that stands no chance of being on the front page, because I unpublished it for two days when the contest was extended. That saddens me. It's very personal and I want you to read it.
Only one author on Fimfiction will know just how personal. Let's just say I didn't have to make much up.
It has been a long time since I managed to get multiple review sets done in advance, and yet, here I find myself with two Read It Later review sets that I got done before I had posted either of them.
The last set’s epilogue ended with me noting I should read stories off my high priority bookshelf… so naturally, I immediately disregarded that advice and just read some stories on a whim.
Let’s see how it goes, shall we?
Today’s stories:
I want to make one thing clear: this blog has been dramatized for ease of reading, and some scenes are shown in non-chronological order so that it all flows better. Everything written here is real, though. The dialogue is mostly literal to the best of my ability and memory. This all happened.
It’s important you understand this because this story is about two things.
What everyone else is thinking: I really hope Twilight can stop Starlight Glimmer, so that she can stop these dystopian futures!
What I'm thinking:
MY BABY IS BACK!!!!
I'M SO PROUD!!!!!
LOOK AT HOW REGAL HE IS!!!!!!
HE'S SO ADORABLE!!!!!!
