Hey guys, remember Jinglemas? Remember how much fun it was? Remember how when it finished you wished you could do again sooner?

Well now you can!

Just head over here and check out the awesome Springtime Sequel Slash Sandbox Switcheroo!

Well I promised in my review schedule that I'd do something special today and here you are.

There's a lot of more serious fanfics out there in the Fallout: Equestria, and while I haven't read all of them, I have heard of this fanfic and that it is a bit, odd at times, so I figured it would be perfect for April Fools Day.

I like to read.

A lot.

You should too! At least, I'm assuming you do, if you're hanging out on a fanfic-based community. And you should read. Read things other than fanfic, even!

Because sometimes, reading non-fanfic offers an opportunity to make your fanfic better. Which brings us to Jo Walton's Tooth and Claw.

Two months of reworking medications, 3 heavy helpings of Reworks, and several rows of edits. It is finally here. Big props to everybody who helped out! I owe a lot to Nasty Hooves for his advice in some of these reworks.

According to my computer, I finished this review set all the way back on September 10th. I had thought I had posted it for some reason, but apparently, I never did.

Whoops.

I barely read any non-writeoff stories last week, then in a single evening, read ten of them.

Let’s get cracking.

Instead of working on A Thousand Roses yesterday, I ended up reading a number of additional stories off of my high priority Read It Sooner list, as well as re-reading a couple of older stories that I read before I started doing reviews.

I really need to get to work on finishing up my story… but I can’t say that I didn’t enjoy the experience of reading many of these works.

Ack! I forgot to make a blog post about this yesterday!

Today is Ponyfest 3.0, another online pony convention.

And like the last convention, I'm doing a panel! Specifically, a panel with Tumbleweed.

The topic?

Is that... light?

I apologize for my long absence; for the last few months I wandered out into dark caves and buried myself there. I had no reason for doing so; I simply did. It is not that I lost interest, or found something more interesting to do; indeed, there was little to do in the dark.

I just hid. From what?

Myself, perhaps?

Sometimes, you just want to read a good story.

This is one of those times.

Today’s stories:

Shub-Cadurath and Catastrophe. One is a story about a horrible monstrosity from beyond the veil of reality that reduces ponies to gibbering masses. The other story is about Princess Cadance giving birth to Princess Flurry Heart.

This was a rather eclectic set of stories; from a story with tiny cover art to a story about edible ears to a story about nursing, folks come up with some of the strangest things these days.

Seems like a good day for some reviews!

Recently, I’ve been trying to be more productive. There are all too many times where I’m aware that I’m wasting my time, and I’m trying to make more of an effort to divert said “dumb time” into time where I actually accomplish something of value.

We’ll see how well it goes, but I’ve managed to put out a review set every other day since I started. So, progress, right?

Happy Memorial Day! I was planning on having a story ready for today, but ended up getting distracted with reading pony fanfics instead. But hey, six of one, half a dozen of the other, right?

I forgot to post this yesterday, but here it is – another set of recent stories I reviewed on Thursday.

Sorry about the dearth of posts recently. I told myself that I’d get one of my stories done before I did some other pony stuff, and it turns out I’m really, really good at procrastinating.

On the upside, it did finally force me to actually get my story done! I’ve been sitting on it for far too long – in fact, I started on it before the Season 6 premier, and then managed to procrastinate on it for half a year.

But now it is done, and I am pretty happy with the result.

In an attempt to re-energize my writing, I re-read a bunch of excellent stories in the last few days. But of course, it would be terrible for me to keep these to myself; while many of these are fandom classics, and others should be, if you somehow haven’t read them, you’re doing yourself a disservice. Hoofprints is perhaps one of my favorite pieces of writing on the site, and it is a pity it is hidden away in a short story collection; much like
