Hey guys! We've got a pretty big event coming up this saturday: Ponyfest 3.0, the online digital pony convention for all your stuck-at-home-going-crazy-but-still-need-pony needs! There's all sorts of stuff going to be going on May 30th, including a panel including yours truly and Wanderer D. What could we be talking about, you ask? Well... we're going to introduce you to the idea of Mega Crossovers, what goes into making them, and why
157 chapters and 2.5 years. As of now, the longest story on fimfiction marked complete, and the fifth longest overall.
Songs of the Spheres has been a massive undertaking. It currently sits as the fifth longest fic on the site at 2.1 million words and has been a part of my life for so long it feels strange to be marking it complete.
We've started the preshow stream for 157!

Come and join us - 157 itself will start in an hour. Or, well, 55 minutes from now.
-GM, master of quick posts.
The big super-stream for hte SotS party is beginning here at the top of the hour:

Hello there! Yes, I will, in fact, be holding festivities on the 18th and 19th for the great end of SotS party! Most of it will be run through the discord server [ https://discordapp.com/invite/eTuseTh ], though you'll be able to join some stuff without it.

“I still can’t believe our histories are defined by random musical numbers,” Jang commented. “It seems so… surreal.”
“Yet another thing the Tower does,” Joanne said. “They won’t exist after it falls.”
“Not unless you practice, anyway!” Pringle cheered. “It is possible to talk entirely in rhyme, you know!”
“Frivolous,” Onion muttered.
See blog for previous parts.
154 – Journey
III – Unwanted Legacy
“This is a terrible story, there’s too much going on,” Onion said, tapping her hoof against a wall.
“Onion!” Pringle shouted.
“What? It is.”
“They’re all related in the end! Come on, you know how this goes. The romance ties into the research ties into the two cities all into one big—”
This is part two. See blog posts for part one. 2/7
154 – Journey
II – A Tale of Two Cities
“Elder, that’s… that’s not the end of the story!” Pringle whined.
The Elder chuckled. “It’s the end of what you haven’t heard before.”
“Dungeon crawls are boring,” Joanne deadpanned, clicking away at her phone.
I said I was going to publish Journey in parts through blog posts, and I'm keeping to that. Expect one of these every two days until all seven parts come out, at which point all of it will be added to the main story all at once. ...You guys will get an epilogue later, but remember, this movie chapter was the last thing I wrote. For me, these seven parts are my goodbye to them.
154 – Journey
I - The Depths of Nucleon
Songs of the Spheres' final "chapter" will be released, live, Sunday April 19 at 7:00 PM Universal time, 2:00 PM Central time, 1:00 PM Mountain time, the same way chapter 130 was released.
Beyond that, as you may have noticed SotS updated early today: that's because I want to end exactly on April 19th. SotS is going to be on an accelerated schedule until that day where the end arrives. Here's what it looks like:
March 14 (today): Our Story
March 17: The Final Frontier
This is an image taken before some clear cheaters climbed the leaderboard. Horse, later discovered to be the great and illustrious Ponygood, is the WINNER! Good job man, this wasn't an easy little quiz.
An hour from now I will be running a Songs of the Spheres trivia game through the Quizizz online quiz thing. It'll be live and you'll all be competing!
No link yet, I'll edit this blog post to have it 20 minutes before the event:

Arc 11 just ended in Songs of the Spheres, and with it almost all secrets and plot twists have been revealed. We have a single arc left, and it will return to a more episodic way of telling stories that we left behind in Arc 10. We'll tie up loose ends, look to the future, and settle down.
And now that all the big stuff is out of the way, it's time... to tell you about how awesome Princess Bubblegum is and how you should all bow to her candy-colored will!
Christmas vacation has begun, and with it, a large quantity of free time for me to DO stuff. Even though I told myself I would relax, I do have a bunch of projects that need at least some working on. So... guess I'll consider this an update post and general review of what's gonna happen this December, and a review in what's going on.
