Just two hours after publishing "07: The Bearded, the Clever, and the Smart", the comments for that chapter were about Twilight's magic. Two didn't get some hints I'd intended to convey, and two liked that Twilight was faking her magic. This blog will hopefully clear up any confusion.

I was watching GoldenFox's review of "Slice of Life" featuring RosePal and Postscript. Here's the video synced to the relevant part for this blog.

2015 was a big year for me, considering the previous five years my accomplishments plateaued while expectations of me tended to increase. So though I don't usually post holiday-focused blog posts, I'mma jump on the bandwagon for this one because I'm proud of where I've come in the past year.

Days Gone By (Auld Land Syne)
As sung by Applejack, Apple Bloom, and Granny Smith

When family cannot be here
Having journeyed far and wide
We sing a song to honor them
To remember days gone by

So raise your cup and raise it high
Just as surely I'll do mine
And laugh we will at stories told
As we smile at days gone by
As we smile at days gone by

For family not here, my dears
Having journeyed far and wide
For loyalty and kindness both
We smile at days gone by

The title of this is more to give you readers an idea when I wrote it, rather than a commentary about chapter 5, although there will be some of that here as well.

As you can probably tell by looking at the wordcount of The Personal Files of Dr. Mindwell, I decided to not finish. I was a week away from the end of the month, and not even halfway through. I would have had to write several thousand words per day on top of my two part-time jobs, a few social events, and doing chores around the house. Worry not, though: Mindwell isn't done, just waiting.

I'm sure most of you have seen the site post (or at least the headline) talking about NaPoWriMo, or National Pony Writing Month. That's not actually a thing. It's wordplay on an actual real thing, though: National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo or simple NaNo.

The goal of NaNo is to write 50,000 words in the 30 days of November. It seems like a lofty goal, but consider the daily goal: 1667 words per day. In a Word document, that's approximately two and a half pages each day. No sweat!

My one-shot story from May has just gotten a new chapter, this time a parallel story from Celestia's point of view. It took me a lot of time to write it as close to show canon as possible, plus properly develop my own ideas that work with canon.

In my last blog, I mentioned that I'd planned to post at least one thing a month. Well, things have gotten in the way. Notably, that I'm currently working on a one-shot involving Starlight Glimmer, a continuation of "Luna's Nightmare" (even though it says it's complete. How do I change that, by the way?), a novel-length sequel to The Princess That Equestria Never Had, my Bit Bridleheart series (also on hiatus as I focus on the novel), several scripts for videos I plan to post on youtube

Before I get into the main point of this blog, I'd like to extend a brief shoutout to everyone who's read and liked the story I posted, The Princess that Equestria Never Had. In only five days, it's had 670 views -- way more than the 311 it currently has on Archive of Our Own after seven months -- and is on 13 bookshelves and being tracked (not sure why, as it's completed) by three users -- compared to only one bookmark on ao3. Thanks again for the numbers on what's currently my (and
