All Art Is Quite Useless


When I'm not writing stories, I'm writing essays. My keyboard sees fairly frequent use. University student, high functioning Rainbow Dash enthusiast, and satirical activist.

A New Story · 9:52pm Dec 19th, 2017

This has been in the pipeline for a while. The first chapter of a commissioned adventure style fic containing an original universe interspersed with the Equestria that you already know.

TInvasion of the Nightmares
An ancient tribe of ponies, banished long before Celestia took the throne, have been biding their time, waiting to return. The time for waiting is over. The time for invasion has begun.

Writing the original characters has been a joy so far, and I'm looking forward to continuing this. Work on chapter two has already begun, but feel free to let me know what you think of the beginning!

EOne Shot Mare
Whenever Twilight writes a short comedy story, ponies eat it up. When she tries to write a long, sweeping epic? There's no one to be found.

This is partially owed to my strong need of a short break from uni shit, back at it now.

Read, judge, and enjoy at your leisure.

A New Story! (And News) · 8:14pm Nov 24th, 2017

So yeah, I'm back at it with another oneshot:

TIt'll Make You Go Blind
Anon witnesses Celestia raising the sun. Something about that seems really stupid.

I realise this isn't my usual level of productivity, but I'm happy to have got up a story that I was able to prepare relatively quickly. (Also, fans of Why Do We Have Guards will be happy to see that Grendo makes a brief appearance in this. Because obviously everyone wanted to see more of him.)

A Birthday Present/OctaScratch! · 12:39am Nov 18th, 2017

TYou Can Play My Strings
With a broken hoof and only a day left to record her latest piece, Octavia must rely on her roommate to assist her in playing. Assist her in an awkwardly intimate half-embrace, that is.

As the title suggests, I wrote this as a (slightly late) birthday present for a brilliant dude. Massive thanks to Ceffyl Dwr for giving me the idea and helping me with pre-reading, you're an absolutely excellent guy.

So yeah, read and enjoy!

Calling all fanfiction readers:

Here is a story by a good friend who has already proven themselves to be a quality writer with previous work. This story really says 'innovation' from the premise alone. While I've only had the chance to read the first third, it really did draw me in, and I'm very excited to get to the rest.

A more imaginative piece, I'm looking forward to expanding on it. Enjoy!

Double Trouble · 4:21am Nov 9th, 2017

Once again shocked and humbled, once again extremely thankful!

Like seriously, the thing that makes this a little better is that last time this happened, it was with two stories with the same tags, which makes sense. This time it's two totally separate stories.

I'm glad people are continuing to enjoy the things I rapidly produce. You guys are all legends.

ERead It Later
Rainbow Dash just wants somepony to read her manuscript now, not 'later'. (Which we all know means never.)

Contrary to the title, I'd prefer if you read it now. (And said some nice things, maybe.)

Lots of fun to write, this was. Enjoy!
