Okay, I admit it, I'm probably not your mom. But odds are I'm old enough to be. Now with Patreon account (under alarajrogers) and short stories on Amazon (under Alara Rogers).

    Dream log, epic Fluttercord edition

    Had a dream during a nap that is perfectly suited to be a story; I'm not even sure I need to tweak it.

    So in the dream, Fluttershy was dying of old age, and Discord couldn't fix it. (She also had insulin-resistant diabetes, but that's kind of less important.) Discord was very upset by this, and decided to take drastic steps to prevent it.

    Dammit, just discovered a friend here's been dead for two years...

    Today I learned that Jordan died in April 2021, and I had no idea. I was re-reading some of my older fanfics, saw his comments, thought, "Huh, I wonder how Jordan's doing", and the answer is, he's not. Dammit.

    FUCKING DONE FINALLY

    "The God of Breaking Rules In The Land of the Dead" is one of my oldest stories on this site. It's not my oldest incomplete -- "The King Who Would Be Man" and "Stumble In My Footsteps" are both older, all part of my initial rush in 2013-14 when I'd first gotten into the fandom and the writing came like a river. But it is old, posted almost 10 years ago (closer to 9 years, 11 months), and

    I don't know for how long, because I never know these things.

    A thing y'all should maybe know

    I may or may not make the change here on Fimfiction, but on Archive of our Own and Fanfiction.net, I am changing my handle to Kaleidolon. Mainly as a branding differentiator between fanfic and profic. It's not like I can hide that Alara J Rogers writes fanfic, not after posting it to the Internet for literally 29 years, but when I get published in real life I want it to be slightly

Awkward Conversations will probably be updated tonight · 10:37pm Dec 21st, 2015

I have to bring myself to re-read what I've written in order to edit it, which has become very hard for me for some reason. But probably I will get it done tonight.

Next up, I am planning to update Stumble in My Footsteps.

Yessssssssss. I have been waiting so long for this! This is the precise thing I followed you for, and while your blog posts have been insightful/endearing/entertaining, I honestly haven't gotten to reading most of the rest of your stuff. (sorry?)

But awkward conversations are bar none my absolute favorite genre, and there's kind of a dearth of it in general, let alone works that have a proper blend of wit and maturity.


tl;dr: There is actually a reason to do this besides your pride; thank you.

Now with improved new Awkwardness?

Wonderful news! I'm not sure what pulled you away, or what brought you back, but I've been waiting with baited breath for the updates you mentioned on your writing progress meter for some time. I'm really interested in seeing how Pinkie and Discord will interact here.

To be fair, this one isn't nearly as awkward. In fact, it goes very well... until it doesn't.
