Hey readers! Running super late on blog posts mostly on account that February has traditionally, and continues to be, a garbage fire of a month for me. Buuuut the show must go on, so happy Patreon reward to Nova Quill/Firimill and let’s hope the worst is probably behind me! Discreetly wraps on the wooden wall.

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

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

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.

This was originally destined to be Read It Now Reviews #93, and was mostly written all the way back in September.

Then I kept on putting off finishing reading A Confederacy of Dunce Caps for no good reason.

Today, I found the time to finally finish it off… but by this point, now is really later.

Still, that’s no excuse not to post reviews!

This came from a pretty eclectic variety of sources; two writeoff stories, a story from a writeoff writer which is unrelated to the writeoff, a featured story, and a random story that got recommended to me by Sharp Spark. Quite the variety pack of stories - but how will they hold up?

Spoiler alert: reasonably well.

For those of you who missed my post earlier today, Mistletrapped’s sixth chapter went up earlier today.

But Mistletrapped is not all there is to the world of ponies today. There was an episode, which I actually liked! And, of course, new stories to be read.

None of which relate to today’s episode, so maybe that was a bit misleading. Still! I’m sure at least some of them will be good, right?

Horizon and Bookplayer released new stories today, and Baal Bunny and Estee each released one earlier this week. You know what that means – it is time to get reading!

Today’s stories are four stories from established authors whose works I enjoy, plus a fifth from a new writer whose very first story ever got featured.

After a week of having a badly distorted sleeping schedule that made me too tired to be productive half the time, I have finally righted the ship of sleep to the point where I am actually awake during daylight hours and asleep at night (for at least a few hours). In celebration, I thought I’d start attacking all the new stories I missed reading while I was dazed and confused for the holidays.

A number of things to talk about. First, Estee’s got something to say. It’s a bit long, but I felt it was an important enough topic to share, having been there myself once or twice.
