Hello, it is me, The Easter Bunny...
Sorry this came out late. I was busy all Friday again. So here you go. The next part of my transformation series. This one will have multiple endings, so keep an eye out. More is coming.

Another new year is here. That means lots of new beginnings, looking forward, etc. All those platitudes and cliches we've come to know and possibly tolerate. But just as important as looking to the future, perhaps even more important, is examining the past. Learning from our mistakes and critiquing our own work is crucial if we want to grow as writers (and as people).
You've had some good moments this season, Spike. Don't get 'greedy'.
Just ooone more early release for today, not like I got much else going on for me but coughing and feel sorry for myself anyway.
The title sounds interesting, that’s all I know. I do enjoy going into these so blind.
Many moons ago, I saw all those Multi-story-spanning alternate universes rampant at the time. I thought to myself, “I could do that.” As the title of this blog series may hint, it never truly congealed into a good story, let alone multiple stories. For today’s idea graveyard, I’d like to share the meandering process with you all. After all, as John Dewey said, “Failure is instructive. The person who really thinks learns quite as much from his failures as from his successes.”
Sarakk and Sarin, long departed from their time at the Hazbin Hotel, have been hired by the plucky Blitzo and his failing (succeeding!) business. With a pair of some of the most dangerous killers in Pentagram City, surely IMP's boss has made all the right decisions!
So before we get to the reviews, a little announcement. I fear I am slowly approaching a financial crisis, and if things don't turn around at work within the next two or three weeks then I may have to take extreme measures. To try and pad this situation, I've finally caved into my friends' suggestions and started work on a Patreon. It's not ready yet, but I wanted to go ahead and let people know that it's coming and I will appreciate whatever help can be offered. I'm trying to think on rewards
In the northern wastelands of the Crystal Empire, Spike the Dragon and Shining Armor stumble over a crashed, crystalline starship. One that bonds to Spike immediately, and obeys him. But it requires a few different pilots to reach its full potential. It seems resistant to magic and to magic drain, and may be possible of faster than light travel.
A busy day today for people I follow – four new stories in my feed, from three different authors, including the long-absent Darf, who is oft spoken of in hushed tones, for fear that he might return if you said his name in front of a mirror three times.
Seems someone finally did. And so, I thought, what better way to welcome him back from two years of absence than to review two of his new stories?
I’m so sorry.
“Talk to the wing hand!”
Another year, another in my series of Idea Graveyard posts, where I discuss an idea of mine that failed to get off the ground for one reason or another. What made me discard the idea, and why haven’t I tried again. Today’s subject is different from my previous failures: its shortcomings are more narrow and simple, but in some ways that makes them harder to fix.
Or Easter, for ya'll who don't like my name for it. Regardless, I hope you have had a good weekend. And now I have a present for you all:
THE NEXT CHAPTER OF THE TROTTING DEAD IS FINISHED AND HAS BEEN SENT TO KJAY!
And it's only just over two years late!
For those of you who might not have heard, HoofBitingActionOverload is going to be unpublishing all his stories in a week, as he is planning on disassembling them for parts for original fiction. I’ve reviewed a bunch of them, and many
