Happy Friday, Aledan Merfolk! Today is the beginning of Camp NaNo: a month-long, set-your-own-goal writing challenge! It’s kind of like the original NaNo, but you don’t have to write 50k to “win”. I’ve set the goal of finishing the rough draft of Enfields, or at the very least writing as much of it as I

Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! Every time I jump back onto the blogging bandwagon life decides to smack me with the busy stick, so it’s been a few weeks. I’ve decided to change Science Tuesday to a monthly post, so most of June’s science news will be posted next Tuesday (the 28th). But I’ll still be

Happy Sunday, Aledan Merfolk! Last week I told you I re-started Custom of the Week because Angela Wallace (one our #PonyFest14 winners) asked about it, and although she doesn’t make custom ponies, she does draw them. When her new book SCORCHED MAGIC released, she drew a beautiful custom pony for the book, and I wanted

Happy Thursday, Aledan Merfolk! If you missed it, I started posting Custom of the Week and Science Tuesday again this week, so make sure you check those out.

Happy Sunday, Aledan Merfolk! It’s been a while since we’ve had a custom pony around these parts, and Angela Wallace (of the Elemental Magic series) reminded me of that fact this week, so I went hunting – or in this case, fishing – and found a lovely, handmade Big Brother pony full of fishies! Oh,
