I'm officially going to be at MLP-MSP!  I don't actually know if I'll be able to be there on Friday the 6th (it'll depend on work), but I decided that I might as well get a badge now while the early-bird special is still going.  Hopefully I'll get to see a couple of you there.

For those of you who aren't active on FiMFiction, they've got a new project: The Royal Guard.  If you've got any interest in trying your hand at this reviewing thing, this looks like a good place to give it a go in a structured environment.  And if you've got a story you think is up to snuff, they've opened up submissions, so go give it a shot!

Below the break, my review of Blissey1's A Novel Tale.

Episode Talk: S4E11, Three's a Crowd

Wanna talk about something that's not pony fanfiction?  How about ponies themselves!  Every now and then I have a fair bit to say about an episode, and this is one of those times.  My thoughts on the latest episode are all below the break; go ahead and dive on in.

If my posts are too widely spaced for your tastes, you might want to check out the Links page, on the bar up above--I've recently added a few new reviewers to the list.  So, go give John Perry, Soge, and Jade Singer some attention, if you can't get enough review-y goodness!  And, of course, go pay attention to all the other reviews I've listed and, while you're at it, let me know if there's anyone I should have on that page but don't.  I am but one man, and a distressingly forgetful one at that, so the odds are that if you don't see a name up there, it's because I either haven't heard it or have, but it slipped my mind.

For now though, we have some genuine Chris reviewsmanship.  Check out my thoughts on BronyWriter's Princess Celestia Gets Mugged, below the break.

Mini-Reviews Round 27

Just a few pony things I've read recently, and have decided to comment on.  Click down below the break to see what I've been reading, what I thought of it, and what today's word (for deftfunk) and silly typo (for the rest of you--I do hate to disappoint) proves to be.

Pony Enough for Ya?

Today's half-coherent blatherings deal with the always-thorny issue of how far one can stray from the source material in one's fanfiction before it stops being fanfiction at all, and becomes an original story which happens to have ponies (or whatever).  Well, mostly; laser-like focus isn't really something I'm known for when it comes to these posts.  Anyway, click down below the break for my thoughts.
