The BronyCon Bookstore: Let's Get a Headcount, Y'all · 3:19am Dec 29th, 2018
And we're back!
And we're back!
1. my girlfriend who may or may not be parasprite is super snuggly and I love her so much oh my goodness yes she is my girlfriend and yes I am so happy with her oh my goodness gracious me yes yes yes
2. Brasta_Septim is the best friend you will ever have and I'm super happy that he's here too
... though not for lack of trying. In between a layoff and a vacation at my new job, I've been working the work of three people. (At least I've been earning double paychecks due to all the OT.) The death march hopefully should ease up this week.
As a reminder that I'm still around, new story in the morning! A minific that started life in one of the Quills & Sofas speedwriting competitions back in like ... mid-August.
Thanks to all who came and joined in the party fun!
It was probably a bit too large because I broadcast it a little too freely, but most ponies who were not overwhelmed by the crowd were able to enjoy themselves. (Please in future, do not damage the furniture by smashing bottles to open them. Horse jesus, you dumb fuckers.)
I'll be doing a couple cons this summer. First off, this weekend (holy crap it's tomorrow!) is the Grand Brony Gala in Tampa, FL, where I'll be hosting a panel with Brawny Buck on Friday and Sunday at 1pm in Salon A called What Makes Pony Good: An Introspective Into the Brony Review and Analysis Community (a full description is below).
Unlike Rainbow's clientele, this story is back from the dead! (Er, sorry about that...) Here's your pre-Bronycon update!
"Dashes to Dashes"
I'm at Bronycon this week! I'll be staying with my editor Reese and a friend of his. I'll post later about which events I'll be at if you care to chat, but I will be at the Writer's Dinner and I'll also be a panelist for writers called "Distant Worlds" with GaPJaxie, Wanderer D, and Pascoite at Star Hall, Sunday at 12:45 am until 1:45 am. It's a late one, but I really hope you'll join us. We'll be talking about how to take what you've learned from MLP
I’m sick.
I’m calling this particular brand of snorting bloody mucus out of my sinuses “LineConitis.”
The first post got deleted, but welcome to my Annual (so long as it's only me writing for west) collection of CTS stories set to feature CTEW, Home of the Clocktower Colts! if you're planning on writing a story featuring part of west, DM me, and i'll feature your story next month! but until them, here's some current and upcoming fics set at west, and how they've both progressed, and maybe even a few spicy hints for the future?
Okay so... BronyCon is coming up in August, and I'm more or less hoping to go. So I've set a goal of at least 300 dollars for it. (Trip up there, to get into BC and for some merch of course ;P )
So to earn cash... I am opening up commissions for stories, one shots specifically and these commissions will be opening and closing every now and then up until August.
NOTE: In the course of meeting so many people over a weekend, some names inevitably slip one's mind, no matter how hard one tries to remember. In such cases, names are replaced by question marks. If any owners of those names are reading this, by all means send me a reminder.
For a similar reason, these are presented out of chronological order.

Day one. Pascoite is giving out free samples.
Alright, y’all, scoot in close. Especially all y’all who are gonna be attending Bronycon.
We're gonna talk about canals and trains and ponies! But first!
Pre-read by the illustrious BlueBook and AlwaysDressesInStyle!
So, this happened.
I haven't posted nearly enough porn for this.
I know I'm late on writing this blog post, because apparently I've picked up two more of you beloved barnacles since then. So it's time for me to address all you crazy ponies with stuff relevant to my future on Fimfiction and beyond.
I felt that the last Bronycon deserved remembering, recalling and recording in detail. To preserve for posterity as full a picture of it as I can manage. Because its like will not come again. That doesn’t mean the fandom is done, or that there’s any less love involved. I will be here for years to come. So will you. For all I know, the best days of FIM fanfiction are yet to come. And, after the con, I feel more connected to it than ever before.
I actually haven't considered this, and maybe I really should have. Anyway, for months there's been talk of Bronycon organizing a bookstore where you can purchase fanfiction hard copies. Now, the idea of a fanfiction hard copy is really neat to me. I've always wanted personal copies of some of my stories! I still have no idea if I could make it to this year's Bronycon, sadly. I really want to, but the whole thing is up in the air, especially because I'm going to have a lot of stuff on my plate
To prevent confusion down the line, I've changed the setting name (as given on the title page of Twilight's Secret Journal) from Rise of Spring to Order of Spring. I can imagine ponies trying to tag it both ways on images, and that would be needlessly wat.
Holy shit, the amazing artist Jowybean says this is still only a semi-finished product. It's going to look even more bitching still!
So yeah, I'm going to have the best cover art at the bookstore!
Hey folks! Quick update! With the release of the BronyCon Schedule, I'm happy to announce that the Gardens of Equestria: This Coming Storm panel will be held on Friday, August 11 at 5:00PM in the Hall of Planets (340-342).
