Boosting! · 6:21pm Mar 2nd, 2016

Just taking a moment to signal-boost a fine piece of fiction by one of my writing buddies.

Patchwork Poltergeist's Latest Story is a smoothly written and mature look at a couple I am sure some fans have trouble lending any legitimacy to. It's adult in the grown-up sense, and romantic in a seasoned and realistic way as opposed to the sometimes overwrought passions of younger sorts.

(Beneficial) Conspiracy Theory! · 7:21am Sep 27th, 2015

So, after watching the third Equestria Girls movie and seeing what transpired, a thought occurred to me. Spoilers for that film below, so be warned...

Mini-Reviews: Season Five: Part Two: First Blood: Resurrection · 4:52am Jul 13th, 2015

Okay, so, here we go again! Several more reviews, taking us all the way to the midseason nano-hiatus. As before, I have included a brief review of each episode, followed by any wishful thinking on what I personally would have liked to have seen in the episode. Enjoy!

Mini-Reviews: Season Five Thusfar · 9:27pm May 17th, 2015

Well, I must say that after that incredibly long hiatus, the show seems to have only improved - which is a serious relief.

The gradual inclusion of more and more continuity and episode shoutouts and callbacks has allowed the episodes to have a more natural, realistic feel, and to explore more character-focused, personalized lessons in comparison to the relatively generic Aesops seen more often in earlier seasons.

Miniature Baked Goods with Frosting · 6:45am Jan 26th, 2015

So, as some of you may be aware, I am participating in the EQD More Most Dangerous Game fic contest, and I ended up picking Cupcakes as the inspiration for my story.

The Fic is Done! Long Live the Fic! · 7:24am Dec 8th, 2014

Oh my heavens I have completed History Repeats at last! :pinkiehappy:

It's been nearly two years... a fair spell longer than I'd expected to take, to say the least.

Just when you thought it was safe to read something else... · 9:51pm May 3rd, 2014

At long, long, LONG last, I have updated History Repeats!

I appreciate everypony's longsuffering patience with my lengthy delay - there were a ton of real-life shenanigans vying for attention, from work to completely replacing my computer, to planning a trip, and and and.

However, things are clearing up, the fic is in the home stretch, and this latest update once more features original song lyrics!

Thanks again for waiting, and enjoy!

See me on a panel? Yes you CAN...terlot · 4:39pm Aug 29th, 2013

Good news!

Barring the unforeseen, I will be sitting on the fanfic writers panel at the CANterlot brony convention in Southern Ontario this November! It's the perfect chance to see yours truly speak if you missed the panel I was on during Canterlot Gardens in 2012.

FanExpo Canada Activity: Spot the Saddlesoap! · 5:17am Aug 21st, 2013

Attention Canadian Bronies and Bronies heading to Canada!
I plan to attend this year's FanExpo convention in Toronto this weekend, and I will once again be wearing my customary convention shirt, in garish purple and printed on the front and back with my CM:

If you go to the con and see a guy wearing that and toting a Derpy Hooves messenger bag, it might well be yours truly.

Still Alive! · 4:44pm Jun 11th, 2013

Just a quick heads-up to let my readers and watchers know that I am still writing and still online!

I went on a quick trip overseas for a couple of weeks, which stalled the next chapter of History Repeats a little, but now I am back home and back on track. The chapter should be done soon.

Your patience is appreciated!

EDIT: .....annnnnnd THERE. Back in business! Woo!
