Read It Later Reviews #87 – Bangception, Now Hiring, Princess Day, Broken Record, Pear and Back Again · 8:17pm Apr 27th, 2020

While I was working on some new reviews, I went through my old files and realized I’d started a bunch of review sets that I’d never finished. These were all destined for various different review sets, but I never ended up publishing any of them because they were all in sets of 1-3 stories. I wrote some of these as far back as 2018.

But hey, better late than never, right?

Today’s stories:

Bangception by Estee
Now Hiring by Miss-Cyan

Ponyfest 2.0 is over! · 6:59pm Apr 26th, 2020

Ponyfest 2.0 has ended, but the magic of the Internet means that all of the panels have been preserved for posterity!

This was the Powerpoint Presentation that I did, about the Universal Engagement Curve.

It was a discussion on pacing in works, and that contains all of my slides.

The Universal Engagement Curve presentation · 7:53pm Apr 25th, 2020

I gave my presentation at Ponyfest earlier today!

Unfortunately, we had some pretty major technical issues, so I lost almost half of my time, but I did end up giving the presentation, even if I had to skip some slides for time.

I believe that Ponyfest will be uploading all the panels online at some point, but the PowerPoint presentation I did is up on Google Docs for people to peruse at their leisure.

Hello everyone!

Tomorrow is the online pony con, Ponyfest!

Yes, it may be kind of dorky to run a convention on Discord, but let's face it - we're all under quarantine here, and could use some fun!

The schedule can be found here.

This is all George R R Martin's fault · 3:35am Apr 18th, 2020

Back in 2019, Air New Zealand offered to fly George R R Martin out to New Zealand so he would finally finish writing his book:

COVID-19 Pandemic · 9:55am Apr 7th, 2020

As some of you might know, I studied biomedical engineering while I was at Vanderbilt. That was more than a decade ago now, which is crazy to think about.

Read It Now Reviews #115 – Free to Study, Making Up is Hard to Do, In Everything but Name, Memorial, One Last Snap · 3:01am Oct 16th, 2019

I was going to write a blog post about the finale, but having gotten about halfway through it, I’m not really sure what it was going to add to the discussion – to a great extent, it felt like a rehash of the episode, rather than adding anything of value.

But I do have things I want to say about it, so I will have to reformulate my thoughts.

In the meanwhile, I actually started reading stories again. And, well, as long as I was reminiscing… what about another review set?
