So, I tried to kill myself with overwork. I mean, I didn't set out to die, but y'know, at some point you look at your schedule, realize you've booked a week of 20 hour days, solid, and realize you have what the mental health community refers to as a Problem-with-a-capital-P. Unfortunately, in this as in so many other things, Aragon has beaten me.

Annoying.

No, we didn't. Real life is a horrid invention.

047 Frenemies Talk: Amending Fences feat. Nyronus

Hello everyone and welcome to the show! No more yaks - this time around we went on a trip to Canterlot so that Twilight could right the wrong. Read on as the Frenemies and Nyronus talk about her old (new) friends, serious matters tackled by the show, and that one cameo about which some people went crazy!

Frenemies Talk, Chapter XI: Amending Fences

Twilight sure is good at making amends. And overreacting. And overreacting while making amends.

But, even if I would like to express my cynicism, it would not change the fact that this was an episode I've thoroughly enjoyed and can count among my favorite episodes of this season. Why? Read below to find out, as we have Nyronus joining us once more.

Howdy folks! Hope all the Americans are enjoying MLK day.

Sorry I haven’t been quite as active of late, but I have been working on some things invisibly. One of the fruits of my labor came out on Friday, a rather silly story about Pinkie Pie teaching Scootaloo the true story of the Hearth’s Warming Turkey:

Frenemies Talk, Chapter VII: The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone

With a slight delay this week, but we are here. Perhaps we are not enough to mend the pain over the lack of episode this Saturday, but we shall try our best as we discuss treasures, Gilda, Harmony and some other insignificant stuff when compared to the Idol of Boreas. Who's with me?

Oh...? Alright, hide the torches.

So, full confession, I have a lot of “Fimfic Famous” friends. I won’t list them because, well, that would be weird, and rude, but I have a lot of people I chat with with (some) regularly who are fairly successful and popular on this website. I have a lot of different interactions with them, but one that has occurred with an alarming amount of regularity is something along these lines;

Them: “My work/standing/ability is garbage.”

So, Wattpad. Wattpad is a general fiction posting website, but it's mostly known for fanfiction. Wattpad, it turns out, has cut a deal with Viacom, to let Viacom mine the site's content for ideas for original IP, including tracking user behavior with invasive datamining to really see what's popping with those ineffable gen z'ers and millennials. They've even already moved ahead with making

You know, normally after a period of inactivity, folks would say that they climbed back on the horse, but in Equestria, that sounds a little bit dirty.

These are some of the stories I read while I was also reading stories for the FlutterDash contest.

I’ve been a bit lax of late on reading new stories as they go up on FIMFiction; the first story in this set went up on my birthday, more than two weeks ago, and I think the latest was up several days ago. Still, better late than never, right?

Though maybe not in something called read it now. Apparently this is more read it nowish.

Still, this started out as such, so a Read It Now it shall remain!

It's my birthday.

Things aren't going great.

I don't know how to talk about that without being depressing and self-pitying.

I'm glad ya'll are here, though. I'm glad this community is trying to stick together despite the pandemic.

Stay safe, and be excellent to each other.

Peace.

Apologies for my laxity in posting this week; I spent a great deal of time twisting myself in knots over what to work on next, and thus ended up not accomplishing much of anything until yesterday, when I simply decided to go ahead with whatever struck me next.

Consequently, I polished up and published a writeoff story:

As He Lay Dying

A friend of mine hit me up today and between flexing on me with how well he eats on twelve euros a month and further reminding me I live in a dystopian hellscape, he asked me to share this around if I could:

So we’re almost halfway through the month, and I’ve suddenly gained a desire to make some plans for the remainder of November. Most of them involve polishing up some stories and writing some blogs I’ve always been meaning to over the past year. Normally, I would’ve partaken in National Pony Writing Month like I have in other years, but unfortunately Equestria Daily wasn’t overseeing it this year. I could do my own version, but I found myself wanting to focus on my own work and squaring away
