On Meghan McCarthy's promotion. · 10:40pm Jun 4th, 2015

Let me tell you a story.

Once upon a time, a bunch of random dudes and dudettes stumbled upon a show called My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It was cute, had relatable characters in relatable situations, all who had great chemistry with each other, and was grounded in a sense of reality despite taking place in a world filled to the brim with the fantastical and the arcane.

PSA: Ponified language is RUINING YOUR FANFIC. · 7:05pm May 25th, 2015

Alright, honestly, I love you guys. You write some amazing stuff. But there are certain trends you Fimficcers follow that really grind my gears.

One of them is when people replace "I" with "Ah". (Seriously, don't do that. The accent should come naturally through the mannerisms, not by butchering phonetics.)

But even worse than that? When people "ponify" the ever-loving shit out of everything.

Sup, horsenerds.

Sorry for taking so long on the next chapter of This Game of Mine. This month's been a bit busy.

Off to San Francisco. · 10:05pm Apr 2nd, 2015

Goodbye, obnoxiously-early SoCal summer heat. Hello, mild Bay Area pleasantness befouled by unwashed hordes of brony.

I wonder if I'll see any of you there.

Hey look! Here's a buncha mockups for small improvements that I think Fimfic would benefit from! · 4:41am Feb 4th, 2015

Watch in stupefied awe as I demonstrate my complete and utter lack of formal training in UI and web design.

As of today, I have been a member of this website for 3 years. · 12:12am Jan 30th, 2015

Those same three years have also been the most chaotic, happy, depressing, horrible, amazing years of my entire life.

*raises glass*

Here's to another three.

Blueprint for the second arc of This Game of Mine. · 4:30am Jan 17th, 2015

You see those little triangles? Yeah. If I click on those, it'll expand and show all the plot details for each chapter.

I should click them and spoil everything just to spite all you nerds. Teehee.

Rest assured that if I stop writing due to boredom / crippling self-doubt / lack of motivation / spontaneous combustion / impalement via broomstick, you will at least have closure.

Your regularly scheduled reminder that I am an absolutely shit writer. · 8:33am Jan 14th, 2015

F M L .

Fun fact: TGoM started as a third-person story, which I converted to first-person prior to publishing because I'm a fucking moron. :pinkiehappy:

I need to go reread Demesne and Pirene and figure out how the fuck they did it.

Heh. Demesne. Pirene. That rhymes. :pinkiecrazy:

Chapter 7 incoming. You ready to get hype? · 11:56pm Jan 12th, 2015

You better be.

This just went out to my editors:

After nearly three months of agonizing over how the hell I'm gonna be able to micromanage two POV characters, I've finally got a semblance of an idea, and I think I'm ready to move forward with it.

So hold onto your butts. The wait is nearly over.
