An anthology intended for those already interested in my work, and a dumping ground for stuff I won’t publish on its own (at least in its current form).

They never said being a horsewordist was going to be easy.

Chapters (25)
Comments ( 9 )

Everything was lit with a cloud of yellow as a fresh sheet of paper whisked its way through the air to meet Gleam’s levitating quill.

Evidently they have a form for that.

I gave up on publishing this one standalone due to a few reasons that should be readily clear: it wasn't going to be groundbreaking and unique,

well darn. There goes my popcorn lol

Good chapter though, nice ponies too.

Ever since he called her Amby, I just thought "I wonder if she has a sister also named Amber, Amber Dexterous"

The telegraph did not just vastly increase the speed and span of news acquisition and delivery. It was a key factor behind the objective reporting concept, succinct writing and inverted pyramid/main-facts-first style because of the high cost/low bandwidth of telegraph transmissions mcdvoice login

Huh, neat. Makes a lot of sense that the restrictions of the telegraph would create those properties.

Dang, despite the "doomed to fail" bit, this was definitely one of my favorite snippets in the recent batch of updates. I'm a sucker for first contact and pleasant conversations xP

On that note, thanks for publishing these rather than hoarding them in a Google doc. These are fun :twilightsmile:

Yeah, I've always had a soft spot for these kinds of starts; it's a big reason as to why I cash in on HiE so often. And like a lot of these ideas, I would've probably gone through with this if I had started working on it years in advance, because by 2017 it was doomed to fail.

Thanks for reading and commenting!
