“Anti-Art” and “Anti-Music” · 2:25am Aug 30th, 2023

This has… close to nothing to do with what I used to write here. Those were examinations of fanfic as an art medium… this is instead about music. But, I still want to touch on a sentiment I’ve seen expressed around certain types of music.

I really didn’t expect much from this release, much less another featured story like I tended to get before I took a several month break. So uh, thanks 65 of you for reading my batshit insane story.

Well, time to do what I tend to do. Let’s take this thing apart.

Billboard Breakdown: 1961 · 3:57am Jul 10th, 2023

This Blog Post is primarily meant for entertainment purposes

I’m still alive.

So yeah, my last Billboard Breakdown got immensely popular and I didn’t mean to just leave this by the wayside for all that time. I’m going to approach this fresh as if I haven’t been gone for months.

What I’ve Been Up To (And Thanks) · 9:42pm Apr 30th, 2023

Believe it or not, I am still alive, I haven’t written any blogs or stories recently, but I am alive. I had a whole idea for a March story, and while that’s something I’m happy to release, don’t expect it anytime soon.

Don’t expect anything for April either.

In fact, don’t expect another story from me for a bit.

Music. · 1:36am Mar 22nd, 2023

Settle in for Dashie’s storytime everypony, I’ve got some things I want to talk about.

I used to be an active participant on the series of websites known as Fandom. I jumped from forum to forum, but I found my home at some point on the Wings of Fire Wiki. I stayed there for a while.

Looking back on those days, that Wiki sucks. I don’t regret my time spent there, and I learned some life lessons I carry with me to this day, it was instrumental in making me who I am today.

Behind the Story: One Mare Story · 9:49pm Mar 3rd, 2023

This story went through several permutations before reaching its final destination. Also, apologies for lateness.

A lot of ideas went into this, and I’m prepared to talk about it. First, we need to go back a few years.

On Friendship · 5:04am Feb 7th, 2023

I haven’t written one of these blog posts in a while, but I feel like I learned today what true friendship is.

I might be wrong, but it suddenly dawned on me that I felt like I’d been a legitimate friend to someone I met, for the first time since I could remember.

That might sound a little pretentious, “look at me, I’m true friends with this person I met, L for you,” but it legitimately felt good, and I’d fucking do it again, to quote that line.

Behind the Story: All The Small Things (Plus: A Special Announcement) · 4:36pm Feb 1st, 2023

I feel like I’m getting back into the groove of writing. This story was very fun to write, and while it could’ve used a little more editing (I released this 2 hours from February beginning under a time crunch), I’m proud of it.

The Special Announcement will be at the end of this post.

Behind the Story: Constantly Changing · 1:59pm Jan 4th, 2023

Sorry this took so long. My wi-fi went out and I had to upload this from school. But, I’m happy to see that this story did not underperform like my last few (though one I purposely didn’t advertise for it to underperform). I’m prepared to pick into Constantly Changing.

So, to properly explain this story, I need to first talk about anime.

Obligatory Monthly “Not Dead” Post · 7:43pm Dec 30th, 2022

With this year coming to a close, I figure it’s time for me to give my monthly update post.

So, I haven’t been on FiMFiction much, fewer ideas mean I’m not really as active as I was at the beginning of this year. I do have to say that my attempt at releasing a story every month has been a success. Not only did I manage to keep that intact, but I also managed to write some pretty good stories this year, too. While I’ve had many misses, I’ve been writing a little this year.
