I read and write in an attempt to figure out which questions and beliefs our little microcosm of a community holds. My verdict? I'm not saying.

50 Questions - Yes, I am doing this too. · 6:57am Apr 11th, 2014

So Bookplayer had a blog recently about 50 questions to answer. There's a lot about pony culture and world-building, so I figured it'd be a good exercise to get some elements of my head-canon down in writing.


The Princesses:
1. How old are Celestia and Luna?
~3700 years old each.
2. How old is Cadance?
40 years old.

Friday Treat for the Afternoon: New 'Siblings On The Edge' Chapter · 6:14pm Mar 28th, 2014

Hey all! It's been a rough week for myself with writing an essay and giving a research presentation for my courses, but that hasn't stopped my editor and I, with the help of our pre readers as well, from being able to get through and release another chapter. It's the final stretch for university classes for me this year, and I'm focusing on a rewrite of some draft chapters that are coming up. If I time this right there shouldn't be too much of a delay.

Maud Pie, Ponified Father Stone? [Latest Episode Spoilers] · 5:26pm Mar 15th, 2014

So I watched the latest episode of MLP just now.

Maud's understated personality and lack of enthusiasm, but deep down an energetic love of their friend reminded me of the second episode of the first season of the BBC Channel 4 show, "Father Ted".

Siblings at the Edge; Writer's Diary 01 · 9:49pm Mar 10th, 2014

As I write what is the twenty third draft chapter of my story, Siblings at the Edge, I feel inclined towards taking a bit of time and letting my audience in on just a small part of the creative process that's gone into this story.

My Thoughts on Breezies · 7:52pm Mar 1st, 2014

Rather than make the obvious Sesame Street reference because of the latest episode's title, I'm going to go for something a little different.

Three's A Crowd, perhaps, but it makes for a riveting episode... · 7:29pm Jan 25th, 2014

And a link to the youtube page in case you want to give the fellow a thumbs up or view it on another page/tab.

Personally this is now my favourite episode of the season, even more than Princess Twilight Sparkle and more than Pinkie Apple Pie. It had a little bit of everything, and was a particularly lovely treasure trove of world building.

Twilight-Discord-Cadence interaction? Check.

My Face When I Discover the Story Added to a Group I like Turns Out to be Crap... · 12:11am Jan 15th, 2014

What do you guys do when your dreams of reading a story with great premise and excellent execution turns out to be the next "My Immortal"?

Presently I'm torn between bashing my head on a wall, drinking booze before supper, or eating yellow snow to get the bad taste out of my mouth.

When are they going to find the first key to that box?

Ya know? The big macguffin they introduced in the second episode of this season?
