I'm still on writing-hiatus, which will last probably another week. It's the end of the semester so things are busy for me. But I have this thing to bitch about and I'm not waiting any longer.

"Show Don't Tell" isn't just for prose. I realized that after binge-listening to The Shake-Ups in Ponyville. They're a very #HORSEFAMOUS brony band because they're actually a band: they play real instruments, live. Some of their songs are pretty good.

Wow dude it took quite some time to diddle this doo and now I get to write iT, WOOw

Wow! Where the hell have I been?!

That is actually a very good question, so here is a quick summery of why I have not been writing, making blog posts as much as I used to.

I work for Enterprise now.
I have no life.

Hey guys! Been quiet for a few months, but this time it’s because I’ve been cooking up some secret fun stuff with the dozens and dozens of volunteers for Ponyville Ciderfest’s Storytelling Adventure rather than depression! I’m real excited for you all to see the stuff we’ve done, but it’s not time yet! Soon, though.

(Although if you want to be there in person, tickets are on sale![/shill])

In the interest of full disclosure, Starsong is technically G3.5. One of the Core Seven ponies (along with Toola Roola, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Sweetie Belle, Cheerilee, and Scootaloo), she's the only one of the bunch who never made an appearance in G4 (not counting some cameos in the G4 comics... as a unicorn instead of a pegasus).

My main goal with writing PVCF app stories was to include as many characters as possible, with a particular focus on G1 & G3 characters, as well as toy-only G4 characters.

This story draws inspiration from the second MLP special, Escape From Katrina, and the G1 episode Mish Mash Melee, using the setting from the second.

A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW
an MLP Science Fiction tale. Ever stop to think what even the most routine magic would be like to a technological race? What if they accidentally got in the way of Luna's adjustment of the moon?

I am also just beginning to rewrite a Grumpy Goat <tail> that is not on this blog yet. I will post both versions of:
FOR THE LOVE OF ANNIE
One version will be presented as a regular GRUMPY GOAT <tail>

Good evening, my dear watchers and loyal readers! Literally 3 years and 1 day to the day since I last posted a new chapter of "Batmare Begins," I've finally uploaded the first of two new chapters coming to you all this weekend! Thank you all so much for your patience and understanding with me and my terribly slow pace in bringing these two new chapters to you.
