I am The Less Anonymous Top Hat. Mostly I do pony and pony related art, but recently I've tried switching from a brush to a pen (or a stylus to a keyboard as the case may be).

Aaaaand we're off!! · 12:34am May 12th, 2016

Apotheosis's first chapter is up (after a few hiccups) and it's time to start getting back into the swing of writing things again after a year in absentia. Mind you, most of that year was dedicated to building the world of Apotheosis when I wasn't busy doing anything else, so I have a lot of material to work from. I've already made a few quick edits to the first chapter to ensure certain things are clarified, but now is when

Guess who's not dead! · 5:19pm Jan 5th, 2015

THIS GUY!

Thanks to the recent break from both running my various ask blogs and attending tech school, I've actually made progress towards completing the first chapter of Apotheosis... and by "progress" I mean I've finalized all the core mechanics of the Mythic AU I needed to in order to move forward with writing inside the framework of the worldspace.

Birthday Update · 5:42pm Jul 28th, 2014

Happy Birthday to me! Twenty-six solar cycles have passed since I first experienced the phenomenon of breathing air. I am now confident in my air-breathing skills and I think it's safe to call myself an expert on the subject.

Doing another one of these, because why not! Plus, you get something to read while I keep (slowly) writing Harmony Awakes.

1. How old are Celestia and Luna?
I place Celestia at around the 1500 mark, give or take a few decades, and Luna only handful of years younger.
2. How old is Cadance?
Late twenties, possibly as old as her early thirties.
3. Were Celestia and Luna always alicorns, or did they ascend?

Harmony Awakes: Cover Image Acquired and Minor Update · 12:42am Mar 21st, 2014

Pretty nifty, eh?

In related news, I'm pushing back the "publishing date" of Harmony Awakes a bit, on the advice of fellow writer and all-around great guy Chaotic Note. (Go check him out if you haven't already!) Basically, I'll wait until after Chapter 1 is done before I click that lovely little submit button. In the meantime, have a teaser:

Change of Plans: New Story on the Horizon · 10:27am Mar 13th, 2014

In an effort to revitalize my drive to write—and drag me away from the time-sink that is MMO gaming—I will be placing my AU scenario on the front burner and begin writing the story I have planned for that universe. The reason I'm delaying the work on my current stories is that I've kind of written myself into a pacing conundrum with In Her Element that has me figuratively beating my head against the wall. I'm also still undecided on which character to present next in The Reign of
