Have you ever wondered why Cheerilee was without a special somepony on Hearts and Hooves day?

Have you ever considered that there may be a story there? Perhaps many stories?

What if that 'date' with Big Mac was actually a rather good date by her standards?

Really, what else can I say? The song was lovely, the visuals were lovely, Pinkie was hilarious, and I loved Big Mac (should have let the poor lug talk more, though!).

I think this may just be my favorite episode of the entire series.

is now live!

Come find out exactly what was going on in the background during Rainbow and Applejack's date, and how the cider barrel got them there in the first place.

Now that I can tag blogs, a blog post seems in order.

Progress on the sequel (An Informal Study of Romance) is progressing. I've very nearly finished the first draft of chapter 3 (clocking in at just shy of 4K words at present), though I'm not nearly as happy with it at the moment as I am with chapters 1 and 2. Hopefully a round of editing will fix that.
