Hey so I was watching some mlp episodes to plot out some events for the future because I love procrastinating; when I happened to recall that Applejack has a dog that I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT.

Winona hasn't been accounted for in any of my chapters, even though Applejack definitely has her at this point; so now I'm feeling like a bit of a fool. Sure, I can easily just insert her in relevant places from here on out, but I should've remembered sooner.

Alright, no preamble, let's jump into addressing my issues. And by that, of course, I mean just rambling about them for a while until I manage to bring up the 'solution' I thought of while I was away.

You know, I was going to be all dramatic about this blog post. I was going to come in with teary eyes, shooting heartfelt apologies left and right at all parties; all the while delivering firm assurances that my lapse in judgement would never occur again^tm.

It has come to my attention throughout the course of a lot of time thinking as well as an increasing number of comments that I have become very boring.

Hold your gasps, there's more.

>forget how to write the pony talking to other ponies

I think I'm projecting onto my writing.

New segment on the JinxTJL show: letting my guard down and actually talking about things.

Thing of the day: Me freaking out about future chapters because I know so little about science; not realizing that 90% of people who read fanfiction will accept anything as long as it sounds cool enough.

This has concluded Jinx's daily freakout; please return to your regular, mundane lives until next I call upon you.

Sometimes, when you're writing, you just get into a rut. You're chugging along with a maddening 1k words a day because of inspiration issues, and you're wondering what the point of life is. It all just seems so dull and unoriginal and bland and synonym, and then: bam.

You hit the sweet spot. Creativity flows like a sweet river of molten chocolate that's absolutely free to drink from. 3k words in three hours, easy.

Life is great.

I don't know how to avoid tropes.

good thing the entire point of the title of my story is to address the idea of a stereotype so i can either play into or subvert tropes as much as i want and i'll still look good heheheheh
