I'm a science-fiction and fantasy buff, creator of the Chakat Universe, and now dabbling in the MLP:FiM universe. I love a good story!

    Would you like to be a pony?

    Just curious, but if reincarnation was genuinely a thing, would you like to be reincarnated as a pony? If so, which type? And would you want to retain the memories of your previous human life?

    SunnyWay Art

    I've just added a commissioned picture to A Steady Heart - part 3. SunnyWay did a gorgeous pic of Steady and Mark flying together on their date. Here it is for your convenience.

    More new art

    I just got a Patreon sketch from RatedPonystar for the "It Takes Six" story – a nice family portrait of Gilda, Big Mac, and their son, Goldspur.

    Gilda-Big Mac art for "It Takes Six"

    The wonderful KlaraPL has just completed a pic I commissioned of Big Mac and Gilda for the story. I have added it to the chapter, but because people are unlikely to notice unless they re-read the story, I'm putting it in this blog too.

Cosmic Updates · 3:15pm Jun 21st, 2017

After posting chapter 4 of Cosmic Lotus, I updated the cover picture and it looks a lot cooler now. Not perfect, but try finding an artist that does good ponies AND spaceships!

Also belatedly added a picture of Emerald Green that I forgot to put into the story. While it's by Kat Miller, I did not commission that one - the OC's owner donated it. Thanks!

Also got my third thumbs-down (so far). Seems that some people didn't like the content of this episode, I suppose.

It doesn't fit their "head cannon"

Though if you haven't gotten a few thumbs down here, I figure you're not doing something right.

Apologies if you've answered this elsewhere and I missed it. How much knowledge of the Chakats is necessary to follow this story? I haven't read any of your Chakat stories (yet, there look to be a lot) and was wondering if I'd be lost when everyone arrives on Chakona.

One tenth of the votes being thumbs-down is about standard. Besides, this lets you know you are pushing envelopes.

While I will be trying to write the chakat-related material keeping in mind that many Fimfiction readers will know little to nothing about them, a basic knowledge will enhance your experience. If you don't wish to read any of the Chakat Universe stories, may I suggest that you look over the Introduction To Chakats on my website to give you an overview of them.

Maybe being a Chakat expert won't matter that much, if things are seen from the Pony point of view? But then again, it will be fun to see how much they get wrong. Good thing they've at least seen carnivores.

I'm a bit worried about how many of the command crew are going to get drug tested when they get back home for seeing little colorful ponies... ;-)
