So one year ago today I created my FIMfiction account, so to celebrate here’s an update! Like Father, Like Son’s second chapter “The Truth” will come out soon followed by a sequel to the dungeon of Spike called Judgement Days. After that I will focus on Like Father, Like Son’s final chapters and then return to the Grimdark scene.

Thank you all so very much for the likes! I'll keep this story going! Feel free to ask about the characters! And please let me know about anything you think I could correct or improve!

I just want to give a big thanks to everyone who liked my story "An Unprecedented Advancement", as it just hit 100 likes! I'm so happy that so many people appreciate my work. Love you all!

Hey folks!

I know I have some of you added on Discord.

I got a strange message from someone this morning "from" someone on FIMFiction inviting me to a Discord server. Said server requested that I scan a QR code to join it using my mobile Discord app.

I'm 99.9% certain that it is just a way to hijack people's accounts, doubly so as I was unable to reply to the person in question.

Girls Night Out (KoE V) and Together Alone both have 8 likes and 1 dislike, thus no thermometer for either. Anypony wanna fix that? Both are interesting reads.

Still working on the epic prequel to The Enforcer and Her Blackmailers and 1 like on both could definitely buoy my spirits and help me finish!

I learned about a new instrument recently: Dobro resonator guitar. It has a distinctive look ("guitar with a shield thingy on the front) a distincitve sound (about midway between an acoustic guitar and a banjo) and features prominently in many blues/bluegrass/country songs. Needless to say, it features prominently in Brother Dege's music what with the rhythmic blues/folk style with a smattering of mellow rock mixed in for taste.

Chapter Eight of Echoing Silence was posted today.

After replying to quite a few comments and messages, I was checking on the statistics of the story when I realized that I have hit over 1,000 likes.

Holy bucking manure, guys!

Echoing Silence, my little brain child here on FIM, has broken over 1,000 likes.

Some delightful folk and bluegrass this time around courtesy of Poor Man's Poison. One of my brothers introduced me to them recently. I am not usually one for this type of music (a bit too much country), but they have certainly grown on me. Mandolin is one of those instruments I enjoy listening to (another is dobro), and Poor Man's Poison has it in spades.

Status update

So I've got good news and bad news. I'm going to start with the bad news first because there is alot.

So first off the military thing ended up not working out due to medical reasons so I'm simply going to college instead. I've got to balance that with my job as well so my free time will be strained. That's kind of irrelevant personal things so let me get into the main stuff.

Pirate Metal.

Pirate. Metal. Just take a moment to savour the delicious barminess.

Alsestorm is an interesting combination of power metal with folk metal elements mixed in all wrapped in bombastic pirate-themed theatrics. Never before did I imagine I would ever utter the phrase "heavy-metal accordion".

I also picked up this cute AF kitchen timer I could wind up and give my writing time a bit more structure. It's all in order to up my production rates for 2017.

Of course, being me, I'm working on TwiDean and not Dazzling Sunset... I'm such a professional.

Something new, apropos of nothing: some blog posts wherein I act my age and slap a bunch of self-indulgent stuff various musical bits and bobs I enjoy listening to up on a public blog post.

At the very least, I figure who reads this may (possibly) discover something new and exciting, or (more likely) have something to laugh at and poke with sticks.

This one is quite interesting (for me at least). One of Significant Other's co-workers introduced me to this particular group a few months past, and I must say I am quite impressed. Infected Mushroom is primarily a psychedelic trance group with some industrial elements mixed in. Quite interesting if you are into that sort of thing...

Great Big Sea was a Canadian folk rock band who performed modern rock interpretations of traditional Canadian folk songs and sea shanties. They were one of the first folk bands I ever really listened to. Oddly enough, they were recommended to by a complete stranger who I struck up a conversation with in an airport restaurant of all places (hi David!).

"Someday Soon" is one of my all-time favourite songs.

More folk music!

I never heard of Slaid Cleaves before stumbling upon him through Pandora, but I am glad I did. Some of his works shades uncomfortably too close to country (), but overall, I enjoy his singing.

Some more of that delicious electro swing. Energetic, upbeat, and just plain fun to listen to (at least to my ears). You know that saying "Dance as though no one can see you"? That is me listening to this.

Some classic blues rock with a dash of country and a hint of Celtic rock mixed in for flavour. Mark's voice is absolutely delicious and the smooth guitar riffs are like sonic velvet. The one or two older chappies and chappettes who may stumble across this post are probably sagely nodding and saying "Finally! SIG has stumbled across some Good Taste!".

I am certainly glad I stumbled across and re-discovered him on Pandora.
