Announcing A New Science Fiction Project

Published December 21, 2025 @ 8:02 AM (CST)
I’m excited to share that I’ve begun work on a new science fiction story that explores first contact, cultural collision, and the moral complexities of colonial expansion.

When Music Died

Published December 21, 2025 @ 7:23 AM (CST)
I am writing this blog post where I am going to be potentially polarizing and perhaps even controversial. I am going to give my honest opinions on the state of music. First and foremost, I know that everyone has their own peak period of music and their own specific point where they feel music started…
Welcome back! When we last left our heroes, Nightmare Moon had returned, Princess Celestia had vanished, and Twilight Sparkle, antisocial bookworm extraordinaire, was somehow supposed to save Equestria using friendship, a concept she fundamentally didn’t believe in. No pressure, right? This is the episode where the show had to deliver on the promise of its…

The Bluey-Brony Paradox

Published November 29, 2025 @ 11:55 AM (CST)
There’s a question that’s been gnawing at me for years, and it’s only become more pointed as I watch the rise of adult Bluey fandom: Why is it perfectly acceptable (even celebrated) to be an adult fan of Bluey, while being a Brony remains something people mock, suspect, or outright condemn? I’m not asking this…

MLP:R&R — Friendship is Magic, Part 1: “Mare in the Moon”

Published November 28, 2025 @ 11:30 AM (CST)
Welcome to the inaugural entry of MLP:R&R (My Little Pony: Recap & Review), where I’m rewatching the entire series, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and documenting the journey. Whether you’re a longtime fan looking to relive the magic or someone curious about what made this show such a cultural phenomenon, I hope you’ll join…

What I Hope to See from The Elder Scrolls VI

Published November 25, 2025 @ 3:43 PM (CST)
I want The Elder Scrolls VI to be good. I really do. But if I’m being honest with myself, I don’t have much confidence in Bethesda anymore. The studio that gave us Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim feels like it’s lost its way. Fallout 76 was a disaster at launch. Starfield, while not terrible, felt like…

What Is “The Meld?”

Published October 25, 2025 @ 1:47 PM (CDT)
If you’ve read Under Rolling Stars, you probably remember something I called “The Meld.” I didn’t really explain it in-story because that was never the point. The story’s set in the world, not about the world. You get hints and fragments. It’s there, just not front and center. The world-building takes a backseat. But if you’re curious what actually happened, this post…

Fallout: Equestria

Published November 30, 2022 @ 5:43 PM (CST)
I know, I know. I made part one for The Lost Element and never made part two. Why am I starting something else without finishing that one? The answer is simple. When that story concludes I will do part two. But as it stands, that story is over three million words, and still hasn’t ended.…

My Fascination with Human in Equestria Stories

Published November 28, 2022 @ 3:16 PM (CST)
If you’ve read through this blog, there’s probably one thing you will have noticed: “This dude is obsessed with HiE.” Yes, it’s true, I have a fascination with Human in Equestria stories. I mean, check out the Fimfiction Reviews series. Every single one of them is HiE. A fair few interestingly enough feature the Anonymous…

Anonymous in Nu-Questria

Published April 2, 2022 @ 5:00 AM (CDT)
I finally got around to reading Anonymous in Nu-Questria and it’s sequel, and holy shit, that was intense. I’m serious, I haven’t been this wrapped in a fanfic in years. Not since Exchange. I read both stories in under twenty-four hours.

Midnight Comfort

Published March 29, 2022 @ 6:00 PM (CDT)
My first G5 review, and seemingly the author’s first G5 story. I’ve read a couple G5 fics, but nothing particularly stuck with me. That was until I read Midnight Comfort.

All’s Fair in Love and War

Published March 23, 2022 @ 8:00 PM (CDT)
After seeing it trending for over a week, I decided to put aside my aversions and check out All’s Fair in Love and War. I’ll admit, I am debating whether or not to even publish my review of this.

The “How Many-Verse” Stories

Published October 19, 2021 @ 12:30 PM (CDT)
I first read How Many Friends Have You Made Today?, and How Many Have You Forgiven Today? back in October 2017. Since it’s been four years, I decided it’s time to reread them and check out the third in the series, How Many Lovers Have You Made Today?

Friday Night Twilight

Published August 10, 2020 @ 11:00 AM (CDT)
Heartwarming. Just heartwarming. This short story has a very simple premise. Twilight Sparkle visits this human every Friday night to watch the show.

My Review of “Exchange”

Published January 23, 2018 @ 3:32 PM (CST)
Normally I wouldn’t read a story like this given its description, but a friend of mine requested I check it out.

My “Book V” Predictions

Published November 15, 2016 @ 1:51 AM (CST)
Christopher Paolini has stated before that he intends to write more stories taking place in Alagaësia, and the next one is “Book V.”
