    State of the Author, december 2023

    Here we are. Another year is almost over. The winter solstice is around the corner, along with any number of special holidays. It's a white Christmas in Oslo. The snow came relatively early here this year, falling in November and staying ever since, with every apparent intention to stick it out until spring. And I am sitting at home resting and relaxing, also, until spring.

    New story: The Queen's Speech

    You know, we as a community have not grappled enough with the fact that in the movie Queen Haven was deposed and arrested, broke out of jail, and then went right back to being queen after as if nothing had happened. Girlboss.

Bronycon Bookstore Announcement! · 10:09pm Feb 12th, 2019

I am mighty pleased to tell you that I have signed up for the Bronycon Bookstore with a print edition of The Education of Clover the Clever!

Furthermore, as part of that the story now has brand-new custom made cover art, which I am extra mighty pleased to unveil:

The cover is made by iisaw, who deserves extra big thanks for helping me through this process, and whose Celestia Code-series and other stories you should definitely go check out on the off chance that you haven't done so already.

The process of making the book available for purchase on Lulu is underway and I'll be back with more information when it is. I sadly won't actually be at Bronycon, what with it being on another continent, but if all goes well I'll be present in spirit and in the form of books. Which, as we all know, is the closest any of us will ever come to immortality.

Oh, that is perfect, especially their respective expressions.

It would be a little nepotistic for me to hold at least one copy of this book in reserve just because I’m the one running the Bookstore.

That’s not gonna stop me from doing it, I just might feel a little bad for a second.

I love it, iisaw did a great job on it. Clover's mane is based on a sketch of her from The Journal of the Two Sisters, the single sort-of-canon image from back when Clover was canonically a filly :derpytongue2:

So long as you don't go full Aziraphale and refuse to ever part with a book I think it's okay :raritywink:

Very nice.
