Second thoughts on Sleepless in Ponyville: You couldn't make a more boring Scootaloo-focused episode featuring Rainbow Dash engaging in Scootalove, Rarity being hilarious, and Luna being amazing if you tried. So I'd say it's overall pretty darn good. :B

So while this episode was leaked online this week and I generally don't avoid spoilers, I'm not that impatient and I have not watched it beyond the "official" spoiler clip.

This story has been around for a while, so there's a good chance everyone has read it, but if you haven't, I highly recommend it. It's a delightful mind screw.

Again, I heard it rather than read it, so I can't comment on the quality of the writing, should such a thing come into question, but just go read it, or look for Atylonisus' reading on YouTube. This story absolutely blew my mind.

Before I begin: I'm 5 away from 200 watchers. :O That's awesome!

So yeah, Magic Duel? Pretty much the best episode ever. I don't know how they can top it, though given the rumors I've heard that could potentially be about the season finale, it may have a run for its money.

Speaking of rumors and spoilers, I saw the clip for this episode last night and it was incredible weird. I can't even explain why. But hey, Scootasode finally!

Especially if you read my last blog post, read this one.

And then read this one.

That I titled my last blog "Haha oh shit" is now 10x more hilarious.

I just saw something -- could just be a rumor -- that makes me need to get Epic Unicorn History out as soon as fucking possible before it gets canon screwed. I likely have until episode 12 of this season at the earliest.

Now you can all guess what I saw!

Oh yeah, and I'm actually writing it. Chapter 1 is progressing!

Sometimes, you find a trollfic that is really amazing. Grace of a Swan is not perfect, but boy did I get a kick out of it. I highly recommend the extremely sarcastic reading done by this bro down here.

This same author also wrote My Little Blueblood and Spike's Granny Smith. Spike's Granny Smith. This guy knows where it's at.

A followup to my somewhat-maligned top 20 for 2011.

Haaaah. ._.

I just spent the last two weeks reading 190k horse words for two back-to-back writing contests. This is why I don't produce much. I write a lot, sure, but I just don't have the time to polish and publish anything at all because I'm too busy writing and then reading. D: This is kind of an issue and I may have to put a stop to it.

This is entirely DPV111's fault.

What is going on.

I lost it at "Fashizzleface".

Is it just me, or did we just do this? X.x

Ineresting to note the total word count is about the same as for Hearth's Warming, but there are 5 fewer stories in this go-round. Anyway, I'm back in it for the contest, though I don't feel I did terribly well, so let's get to it!
