My Jinglemas present for Blueninetails, who requested a romantic story with Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash:

EEndless

• MLP: FiM
• Romance
• Drama

Roses are red, the sky is blue, the ephemeral and the eternal: both call to you. If you're Twilight Sparkle, trying to make an important decision of the heart.

• Twilight
• Rainbow Dash

Reaffirming once again that I am in fact TwiDash trash (), I took on this assignment with great eagerness and I'm pretty proud of the result. I hope you'll like it too.

What the blog title says.

TSeashell (print rewrite)

• MLP: FiM
• Romance
• Drama
• Sad

How long can I watch while two ponies who desperately need each other's love languish in the pain of self-imposed denial?

• Twilight
• Rainbow Dash
• OC

I meant to do this announcement over the weekend sometime, but I just couldn't find the energy with all kinds of stuff going on.

So I'm doing it now, because I'm tired of waiting, and if I announce it, then I have to follow through. Sometimes that's what it takes.

Anyway, to get to the point:
The Print Edition rewrite of Seashell is coming to FimFiction.

Reminder: in a first-past-the-post simple majority system, the ONLY voting strategy that can ever succeed is to actually bother voting. Not voting is not some sort of statement. It does NOT help advance whatever belief(s) lead you to dislike both candidates. It will not help you get "better candidates next time around" (particularly when whether there even will be a "next time around" could depend on who wins this time).

With Everfree Northwest over, the first print copies of Seashell are now officially out there in the wild.

And now, it's time for part 2 of the release plan: mailing out copies to anyone who wasn't at EFNW.

So that brings up the question of inventory.
Let's see... I sold 7 copies of the hardcover at EFNW, plus the one I'm keeping for myself, so that means I have 12 copies left.
There are 5 people currently on my reserved list for hardcovers:

Hi! Welcome to my blog mini-series on the Adventure of Everfree Northwest 2024 (as told by me).

So, we're moving on to Friday, and the first official day of the convention.

The day begins fairly naturally with waking up. That leads to the morning routine—taking a shower and so forth—but I doubt you'd find my elucidation on the details exciting so let's move on.
