Expect Delays · 12:20am Mar 17th, 2021

I'm posting this blog to say that you shouldn't expect any of the goals I posted earlier this month to be done anytime this month. I know, big shock from the dude who has been promising them to be done since November. But this time I've got an excuse outside of my procrastination in my personal life.

Hey everyone! I know I’ve been awful quiet around here, but I wanted to assure you all that I was still kicking. I also wanted to list a few developments that I’ve accomplished since my last update, as well as the new goals I found myself formulating as the weeks passed.

Endings: A Postmortem on a BronyCon Bookstore Entry · 6:57pm Feb 10th, 2021

The year 2019 probably stands for most people as the last time things were truly ‘normal’ in the world. For me, it was the year I finally committed to my participation in the fanfiction elements of the fandom. At BronyCon 2019, the final BronyCon ever, I submitted ten copies of a fanfiction collection to the BronyCon Bookstore. This was a collaborative event led by

>tfw you remember the JUSTIFY button is a thing in Word · 3:37pm Jan 23rd, 2021

I was doing editing on my Endings collection, and I realized most of the formatting irregularities could be solved with a simple push of the button. And I somehow didn't notice this until nearly two years after the fact.

This is going to be a weird year.

There, I said it. I mean every word of it. Will I ever explain this perspective?

No Yes.

January Plans and Updates · 4:29am Jan 13th, 2021

Hey all! With the way things are in the world now, I figure now’s as good a time as any to square a lot of my writing away. Part of it may just be my own way of finding some order in the chaotic mess our world seems to be spiraling ever deeper into, but that’s hardly the worst reason to try and crank out some horse words. Besides, procrastination has always been one of my major vices, so posting plans that at least 50 people will see might light a bit more of a fire under my butt. So from now

So my Filly Anon Story has been trending for three days... · 4:50pm Nov 14th, 2020

It's a weird experience to have a popular story after six years on this website. After a sporadic influx of stories every few months, the one that gets me to the top of the page is the one about a self-insert character played absolutely straight. Compare this to my now second most popular story, The Right Reads. That took a few years to build up to its 800 views (though admittedly the first 300 came when I first published

November Plans and Updates · 11:50pm Nov 13th, 2020

So we’re almost halfway through the month, and I’ve suddenly gained a desire to make some plans for the remainder of November. Most of them involve polishing up some stories and writing some blogs I’ve always been meaning to over the past year. Normally, I would’ve partaken in National Pony Writing Month like I have in other years, but unfortunately Equestria Daily wasn’t overseeing it this year. I could do my own version, but I found myself wanting to focus on my own work and squaring away

New Story Released! · 11:01pm Nov 12th, 2020

After months of editing and brainstorming, my newest story has been completed. Titled "Pretty Laces for Good Little Fillies", it's a Filly Anon story that examines how the titular character navigates the Council of Friendship meeting that occurs every year at Canterlot Castle. It goes in a decidedly more dramatic direction than most Filly Anon stories do, so it was very interesting to write. I really wanted to focus on the idea of the Filly and Man side of Filly Anon coming into conflict,

A Bizarre Nightmare · 7:03pm Oct 18th, 2020

I had a strange dream last night. The details became hazy the second I woke up, but one aspect remained quite clear.

I was imagining I was reading through a story I uploaded to this site and got to the comments section. The only comment posted was one about how my story was "condescending" and was pretty much the worst story ever written.
