It's Finally Here · 4:01am Aug 25th, 2015
After a three weeks of writing, five days of straight editing and hours of revising I've finally been able to publish the story I had been teasing for the past few weeks.

There's no secret to the quality of today's story — just a gripping look at the secrets of a mare facing a life-changing decision.

Once every month, a mare appears on a remote beach, far from her home. She plays, she reads, she sleeps, and she wastes precious, precious time.
You know how the game works. You bowl your ball towards ten pins set up in a triangle, with the aim of knocking down as many as possible. Simple. But the fundamental simplicity does not mean there is little to it, and like all the best games, fanatics have spent years analyzing every detail to determine the best strategy. This is an excellent one to study with the language of physics.
Cranky: "You told me you could make invitations at half the price, and then you deliver them with the wrong invitation?!"
Derpy: "Muffin?"
So, Bon Bon is a secret agent now, huh? And Doctor Whooves and Derpy Muffins are like Doc Brown/Marty?
I have new story ideas!
Oh, also, my thoughts on the episode?
It good.
In just about a month, I'll have been on the site for seven years. It's honestly pretty incredible to me that nearly 1/3 of my entire life has been spent perusing this website, posting stories, and making a lot of great friends along the way. During my journey, I've set out a few different goals for myself.
Take note of how today's story tips the scales of storytelling quality.

"I'm going to be famous!", "I'm going to be the next big thing!", "I'm going to be a superstar!" Octavia couldn't even count how many times she'd heard her roommate claim that she was headed for fame and fortune.
This is a blog about some big things I'll be working on these are at the top of my agenda
1. All other stories that I was planning to write have been canceled so I can work on my new multi chapter story Swim Lessons
2. I will resume writing stories after Swim Lessons is finished
Mr. Dino and I got together to discuss Slice of Life, the one hundredth episode of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Hilarity is sure to ensure!
So today is finally the day! After MONTHS of hard work and editing, Shadows of Eden is finished.
To speak freely...
It's that time of the year again!
I'm not wearing pants.
My windows are open.
My ceiling fan is on.
I have two other fans pointed towards me.
My cat is just laying on the floor in random places.
SUMMER COOKING TIME IS HERE!
(Oh, and it's so hot I need to sleep with the window open so now I get to wake up at 5 by stupid birds!)
What's not to love about it?
There's women going around wearing very little.
And the best of all...
It's so hot you need to have your balcony door open until you're just about to sleep which means insect fuckers get in and wakes you up at fucking 5 in the morning!!!
SPECIAL NEWS REPORT
Stupid fucking neighbourhood cats killing magpies in my yard!
I swear, I'm not gonna let a single one of those fuckers waltz into my yard ever again!
A long time ago, well, a couple years, but basically forever ago when going by my FiMFiction, I wrote a story.
Nothing surprising, hell, I’m working on a long one right now (and that one is turning out to be quite long). But following The Endless Cycle, I wrote a story called Sitting on the Dock of the Bay, inspired by (Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay, which is a song I love a lot. The story itself, is nothing spectacular, I was still finding my voice.
I’m no longer very active on social media, so it’s been a while since I felt the giddy rush of affirmation! But since I posted my most recent story it has gotten over three hundred reads in under three days and a whole lot of comments. So color me dopamine and serotonin flush!
I've come to the realization that the marketing team behind the show has to cut the showrunners slack. Between teaser trailers and merchandise, the fandom's ability to enjoy the show itself is being damaged.
Warning: Spoilers abound. Proceed with caution.
Well, I certainly can't think of a better way to celebrate one hundred episodes of the show. I could tell that M.A. Larson had a lot of fun writing this one, and I sure had a lot of fun watching it. I also have a lot to say about it, so let's get right to it.
If you're looking for some comedy with a philosophical twist, don't wait to read today's story.
