Estimating G3 heights part 1 · 3:37am Jul 28th, 2017

How big are the G3 ponies exactly? Because, for the purposes of my G3 story, I assumed they were as big or bigger then then their G4 counterparts. But is this actually true?

So this is the post where I try to channel my inner Mat-pat (Game theorists) and try to find the heights of the G3 ponies.

Estimating G3 heights part 2 · 12:46am Feb 4th, 2018

So since the last time I did one of these, someone proposed that I use Santa's door in A Very Minty Christmas to calculate the G3 ponies' heights.

Before we begin, here's an article estimating the G4 pony heights:

Blog: Forget likes and faves · 5:28am May 6th, 2021

Fic quality should be measured in reader tears. I demand that all readers be required to cry any tears they shed while reading a fic into an electronically logged measuring cup. The author with the highest total volume will be declared the best at writing.

Good ways to describe the size of a big pony? · 9:45am May 15th, 2021

Let's go for very gentle ponies, but the 'problem' is there about the size of a shire horse on average in this alternate universe. Now, factor in that a pony like Princess Celestia would be even larger here since the average pony is the size of a shire horse.

Your average sized human meets these ponies. They are friendly, just very big.

A question of measurements and units · 4:16pm Aug 6th, 2017

I have been using metric measurements as of recent in story because I feel like they are more universal than the imperial system. That and I have a better grasp of numbers for them in part because up or down by factors of ten is easy and imperial system is sort of absurd and I say that as an United States citizen. But I figured I should actually ask. Is that confusing for you my readers? Is my use of the metric system being a distraction? I am about to put a temperature out in the next

Unit of Measurement · 5:39am Jan 18th, 2018

It seems inevitable that the unit of power in the Systemé Equestriané should be our old friend, the horsepower.

However, it also seems impossible that it’s the piddling seven-hundred-and-some watts that our horsepower is. Not unless we want to argue that Big “House-Dragger” Mac and Maud “Instant Erosion” Pie, among many others, are putting out many times the notional horsepower.

It only looks worse if we stick with Watt’s assumption that a horsepower was 150% of a ponypower.

Three Stories? How Preposterous · 6:56pm Mar 6th, 2016

So, yeah, now I'm running three stories simultaneously.

How am I going to deal with this workload, you ask?

Answer is, I'm not.

Not well, anyhow. Updates will come as they wish, though not to the point where I'm inactive for months at a time. I don't do that.

Thing is, one more story and I'll be on equal terms with the amount of non-oneshots I've written for a variety of fandoms on Fanfiction.net.

Rough Times Ahead · 2:37am Aug 8th, 2019

Well, today has been rough.

My roommate lost her job, and it's going to make our lives pretty difficult here for a while. Rent is gonna be tough, as some of you know we just moved into a new place and that was pretty expensive. This couldn't really have come at a worse time, but here we are. I'll be real with you guys, this is going to be a really hard time for me, so I'm sort of biting the bullet, swallowing my pride, and asking for help now before it gets bad.

Getting my wisdom teeth pulled on the weekend. · 3:59am Aug 2nd, 2016

There will likely be a delay between chapters for both Shadows and Watchers and A Measure of History. I'm getting three wisdom teeth pulled on Saturday, the 1st of August, and I'm sure ya'll know how that's gonna go. I'll probably be out of commission for at least a few days afterwards.

Thus, no new chapters until after that, unless I can manage to get a couple of these finished by the end of the weekend.

Fun times.

January's Upcoming Story! · 11:51pm Dec 28th, 2019

Hi y'all! I'm just dropping this blog since next month and 2020 is approaching fast. I still have plenty of time off from university to write more horsewords, but I figured it would be worth it to let you all know that My Stars and Garters may be the last story of this year, but that there is still more to come, uh, next week? Next year? I don't know, both work. Anyway, that multi-chapter story that was mentioned in the last blog is completely edited and stars Princess Celestia, young

Don't retreat fully into Corona Blues yet! · 5:12am Mar 20th, 2020

I have some fun stuff coming! With all this isolation glum and hectic stuff going on, I've got some good news. It has Sunset Shimmer too, and if you like her, you'll like hearing that. Distance Beyond Any Measure is going to be getting one more chapter to finish it up, one about Sunset and Celestia. I've also revised and polished the story a bit in preparation for it to be featured on a particular horse site, but don't hold me to that yet. If you would like some revised, expanded, and

The Most Underrated Paul Simon Song--Cars are Cars · 3:17am Oct 31st, 2019

This song--Cars are Cars--is one of the most maligned Paul Simon songs. People say it's shit. I don't get how. The lyrics are fucking genius and the music is an absolute goddamned bop. Fuck those philistines. This song is great and all the haters can choke on my cock.
