Okay, so I drew this for a friend for his birthday. I drew the pencil sketch on copy paper, then scanned it to work with in Corel Painter 12. I used a mouse for most of the coloring and the outlines, but finished it off with close detail work with my Bamboo tablet. Head over to Cynewulf's page to wish him a happy birthday (late)! RariDash is his chosen ship and he's written some excellent stories which explore that relationship as

Really, you do. Take a listen:

Hey there lovely loyal followers! I hope your day is going well and you're all in excellent health! I thought you guys might want some truly excellent My Little Pony studies on pony anatomy and proportions that I found on DeviantArt, just in case some of you dabble in the artistic persuasion. I know that I've had a lot of fun drawing our favorite ponies and these images are absolutely perfect for getting those proportions just right so that your ponies don't end up looking like weird noodle

Hey there guys! I know many of you are probably tired from lack of sleep at BronyCon, so I'll keep this brief. I had planned on releasing the next chapter for The Apple Tree over this past weekend, but BronyCon happened and I figured that there would be a significant number of readers hanging out at the convention rather than holed up at home reading ponyfics, so I figured I'd give them a break and release the next chapter this week. Yes, not over the weekend, but during the week! Look for

Hey there folks. I've seen countless threads here where authors are desperately seeking ways to beat writer's block and it saddens me. Writer's block is a huge problem for us, isn't it? But it doesn't have to be. The vast majority of the advice I see to defeat writer's block is to stop writing. Go read a book, screw around on the Internet, watch TV, play a video game, go outside. Right. To me, that's a bit counter-productive. After all, I want to write. If I wanted to go read a

Chapter 3 is up! This one took me a bit longer than the others because it's finally catapulting us out of Nexus and into the meat of the story. I hope you all enjoy it!

Well, it seems that this is becoming a more common question lately since I now have two incomplete long-form stories going. I'll try to stick to my chapter-a-week update schedule for "The Apple Tree" (though I've already broken that this past week) but chapters for "The Magic of Immortality" may take a bit longer as they're twice the length of the chapters in "The Apple Tree". Honestly though, it'll really come down to which story catches my fancy at the time. I love both of them to pieces

Okay, I've taken another plunge into another style of FimFic. HiE. It's called The Magic of Immortality and it's about a semi-adult named Jeremy who discovers he's immortal and has to figure out how to spend all that time. Okay, before you all decide to unfollow in droves, I'm still working on The Apple Tree, but this story is something of a personal challenge for me. Why? Because I really like the idea of Human in Equestria, but I don't think it gets executed very well. This story

Okay guys, Chapter 7 is now up! Sorry it took so long, but I think the chapter is a really good one. It has a lot more humor than previous chapters (which I always like) but still manages to pack in some feels. As always, let me know what y'all think in the comments or through PMs!

So I got finished writing chapter 7 yesterday and was just about to publish it. Then I read it again. And again. And I just couldn't pull the trigger. So I trashed the draft and I'm rewriting it. It's about halfway done, but I think it's going to be much better than the first draft. It's more heartfelt and it's funnier (to me anyway) and doesn't feel as rushed. I hope you all can forgive me for taking so much longer on this one than my previous chapters. Keep the faith my friends!
