I was going to make an anthology about the character of Zap Apple, from my Anarchyverse stories... but as time has gone by, I'm just tired of planning to write, instead of just writing the damn stories. So, here's the first. A standalone story following Rainbow Dash as she comes to grips with the realities of motherhood, and how that's going to impact her life, her career, and her self-image of herself.

A new chapter has landed! As we near our finale, we find Midnight struggling with a terrible choice she must make. But, more than that, it seems fate will not allow her to move forward without one final confrontation with her past.

Principal Cinch appears. And she’s not alone...

Hope everyone’s having an enjoyable Friday!

We're all Irish today.

But, since I'm half anyway, let's sing a song.

Erin go Braugh.

When I first got into the MLP community, one of the first things I watched was Friendship Games. Sure, the pacing and logic slips a little, here and there, but it made up for that in its imaginative imagery and musical numbers, as well as the sheer emotional resonance it had with me. It really shouldn't surprise anyone in this fandom that I was a sensitive lad, and got bullied pretty hard all through Middle School. So, seeing the crap Twilight put up with felt very real, at least to me.

As I've been writing All These Midnight Days, I... kinda realized I'mma bout to finish the penultimate chapters. And I can either post it as a 20,000 word SUPER CHAPTER, or in smaller bits. But, that made me think of something more general I thought I should ask people around these parts.

How long is an ideal chapter update for you, as a reader?

I have just hit 300 followers on Fimfic!

I don't really know what to say to that. 300 in a year-and-a-half sounds like a pretty good rate, all things considered, and I am truly humbled by all the people who find my mad ramblings entertaining enough to stick around.

Thank you, to everyone who continues to give me purpose in writing about this wonderful world. I love you all.
