Well there, hello again Bronies and Pegasisters! It is I, the SillyDuck and I have returned... or rather completed Whinny City Pony Con 2017. I say that because as we speak I am still sitting here with several people from the con and it was amazing. I'm a so-so author at best, but I love what I do, so I can try and regale you all with my tales from the con... but most likely I will give you snippets and leave you wanting more. But I either met or spoke with several other authors and many fellow

Hi, all!

Come say hello at Whinny City! If you can only make it to one, I HIGHLY recommend coming to the GOH panel on Saturday, where I get to present a story featuring Michael Daingerfield (aka Braeburn's VA), after which point I will die of happiness.

Thanks to Bright Sight for the art!

See you there!

What’s this? A Whinny City Con Report??? A month after the con???????? It’s quite an adventure, so let’s hop right in!

Pre-Con
This year, I was an average attendee! Kind of! I was an Equestria-level sponsor, a CG, and a panelist, but that’s about as close to “average” as I get these days.

Hey there, everyone!

I'm going to be at Whinny City Pony Con this weekend. If you're going, be sure to stop me and say hi! I'm the Division Director for events this year, so once again, I'll be pretty busy.

Hey there, folks!

First off, here's my mandatory Soarburn picture, courtesy of the book I wrote!

Well it's about darn time, wouldn't you agree? Feels good to be writing again.

So why haven't I been writing? A multitude of reasons, but I'll talk about the big ones.

I always bring a special shirt with me to conventions: the purple shirt with the black cuffs, the shoulder tabs, and the roll-up sleeves. Some might call it a cosplay – it is the shirt that my OC wears, after all – but to me, it's something even more special. It's a way for me to slip into someone that I choose to be, someone who's been a big part of who I am for over a decade, someone who is confident and competent and just wants to spend a weekend making people happy, and somepony who,

Well Kiddos, I'm confirmed to be at Whinny City Ponycon in April (the venue is like 20 minutes from where I grew up and where my parents still live- I used to go to the My Little Pony Fair there). Even better, I'll be hosting a panel "Writing Pony Fanfiction: The Basics"!

If any of my dear internet followers are headed there, I'd love to meet you in person; alternatively, let me know if you have writing experience and would like to join me as a cohost of the panel!
