I've recently written a story called Preening Scoots which is proving fairly popular. I hadn't written a story involving preening before, but there was this contest and I decided to enter, so… Anyway, I needed to do a bit of research before I wrote the preening scene. I used Wikipedia to read up on some of the different kinds of feathers, their composition, and what it might feel like to have the different types of feathers

So there is a story called Sucker Punch which has nothing to do with the film of the same name.

I've just published a new fic called Zeno's Paradox which uses Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash to explain a famous problem from Greek philosophy.

Interestingly, it's story #250000 on Fimfiction... check out the URL: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/250000.

Also, it's precisely 1000 words long. That took some effort.

OK, so it took a little longer than I expected, but chapter 2 is finished now. I'd quite like some people to pre-read it before I press the "Publish" button, and point out any obvious mistakes.

If you'd like to be one of the first to read it, please add a comment to this blog article. I'll PM the password and link to the first four people.
