I know that it was kinda a really simple challenge of following the submission rules, but it feels good...

Facebook Page!
hey guys. I've been really out of it lately, juggling two fanfics while doing schoolwork, trying to catch up on an anime... It's been pretty hectic.
Anyway, I managed to set up a facebook page when nopony was looking. Have fun!

The Midnight Brony: A Temporary Solution
As you know, I haven't been able to do too many blogposts lately. The reason is that I'm writing a fanfic. Now, that probably sounds like a pretty dumb reason to not post, right?
Now, what you don't realize is that it's not just the fanfic. I also have school Monday-Friday, as well as whatever homework I get. So I basically only have time to do blogposts at night. (Hence, "The Midnight Brony.") Now, this was okay before, when I had 3000 pics on my phone that I could use on a whim. Now I'm down to a mere 1,300 or so due to iTunes not syncing right, and most of them have been used on the blog before. There's also the issue of the daily topic, where I need to have a specific type of pony picture. So now I'm spending 30 minutes finding pictures, then 30 minutes (roughly) to pull together the full blog post. Add the ~8 hours I spend at school most days. Add another 8 hours for a decent sleep. That's ~17 hours. Then, we have to factor in the fanfic.
The fanfic was going to be a "whenever I feel like it" sort of side project on Google Docs. Then I thought that it would be a good idea to publish it, just to get the feedback. So I signed up for an account on FIMfiction.net. I re-wrote the prologue that I had on G.D., and saved it. I read it. I read it again. And it hit me that the fanfic could actually turn out... Nice. It could be a decent achievement in the Brony community. It's not going to be the next Fallout: Equestria or anything, but i think it could, with time, become a sizable project. And so, I began devoting all of my precious spare time to writing "Everlasting Paradise."
It was this, combined with a need for a healthy sleep pattern and the photo shortage, that I began canceling more and more blogposts.
Thus, I have come up with a solution.
Monday-Friday I'll do temporary "whatever I feel like" photo posts. Saturday & Sunday will be Wacky Wednesday-style random-topic posts. Hopefully, once I get the fanfic going a bit more smoothly, I'll have time to do the regular themed posts.
And since I don't want to leave you with only a wall of text, have a photo.

The Early Morning Brony (3/20/12)
Well, it's 4:50 right now. I have absolutely no idea why I decided to wake up now. So tired...
Anyway, sorry about the missing post last night, stayed up till ten typing away at a fanfic chapter. (I really, REALLY picked a bad day to wake up so early.)
In other news, Equestria Daily has proposed the idea of making synthetic MLP episodes over the summer break, to which I could only stare at my computer in awe and wonder as rainbows began shooting out of the screen. I just hope I can give support to them.
I've had quite a bit of trouble connecting to iBrony this morning. Did the server go down? Did I get banned for some obscure reason? Idk, but whatever it is I can't connect.
Well, I'm all out of ideas, so have a random picture.
Have a good day!

The Afternoon Brony: "Everlasting Paradise" Prologue
OH. MY. GOD.
I somehow managed to pull together a prologue for this story. I think it turned out pretty well.
Have a link: http://www.fimfiction.net/chapter/49668
Anyway, back to brainstorming...
