So, if you haven't noticed, the sequel to God Empress of Ponykind, The Empress Returns, was published yesterday afternoon. Off to a good start, all things consider, but FIMFiction's bizarre queuing system meant that it has gone a bit unnoticed.

Hey guys,

Don't worry, this is a bit of a happier blog post. I've been working on and off on a few ideas, and think I've got a good idea for an original work.

It's current working title is "The Realms of Magic". For a brief synopsis, it's the story of a young mage/priestess who's stranded in a faraway land after a colonization effort gone horribly wrong. She set off to find a way home, encountering new peoples, conflicts, and powers along her way.

Well, it happened... · 2:55am Aug 29th, 2015

I've had a lot to think about this summer. A lot has changed since I joined this fandom; my writing skills have improved, I'm most of the way through college, I'll be getting married sometime in the next two years or so. I'd like to think that My Little Pony has done a lot to get me to this point, and I certainly wouldn't have improved as a writer without this fandom.

But now, I feel like it's time for me to move on.

Let’s be honest here: we love action movies and shows because we love seeing people beat the crap out of each other. Violence is just one of those things that is set in the human condition, but let’s just skip the philosophy for now.

Inside Out · 3:12am Jun 28th, 2015

This is the other movie I was excited to see this summer. And I can say, Pixar is back on their game.

Really, this movie was adorable and just plain fun. The characters, emotions or otherwise, were a joy to watch, and you can tell the Voice Actors had a lot of fun with the roles. The plot isn't too complex, and it doesn't need to be: it's a peak into what makes a person tick without having to suffer through countless boring monologues to get.

Also, it's pretty darn funny.

In actuality, I saw two movies today (because I have about $60 in Regal Gift Cards that I need to use). Let's start with the first movie that I saw today.
There will be spoilers below, so here it goes:

In honor of Jurassic World coming out, I have this thing here:


Hello all, and welcome to Fanfic Masochism.

With Jurassic World coming out, I thought I’d step out of retirement for a bit to talk about Jurassic Park. Just a moment, I’ll provide some fitting music:

GAH! Wrong track!

There, that’s better.

I’ve been on the internet long enough that I’ve begun to develop a taste for what works for me and what doesn’t, and in recent years I’ve begun to think about what trends/reoccurring bits/whatever about stories I read online turn me off of them, so to speak.

So, after some thought, I present to you:
