Haha, guys! Last Thursday I had a crazy workout and then fell from bicycle and injured a shoulder. Now I barely can move but have to finish some handyman's job. Feeling so old, stiff and grumpy lol. Feeling so related to the book RN while hobbling around with all that tools.

Maybe the Big Dipper, but also the Orion's Belt is known as Saucepan. I know somepony who likes to talk about stars and knows a lot about constellations, but she's sidequesting rn.

Ahaha! I don't really know, just thought that it's funny that the fire demon is singing about saucepans ^•^ You read all the book, do they reveal the saucepan secret? Spoiler alert for ponies who haven't seen the movie accidentally 9×9

Oi, poniz! I'm behind the schedule! >o< By the way, I like the steampunk vibe of the movie bit I like the difference of the book as well. It looks more dark and gothic in my head. Reminds me of Faust >:D The demon doesn't look trustworthy so far 😈 😈 👿

You're awesome, ponies ^^ I didn't even read after 2nd chapter so busy I was T^T Well, I have an evening to finish 3 and 4 9w9

I'm feeling envious of people who's going to Galacon. Do you her me, @Snow @papermare?! Have fun there for me ^•^

I'm feeling tired. I'm tired to repeat that I'm tired. So...

Feeling okayish. Despite the week was looking like a crazy rush, I found a moment to breath out and relax. Had an evening on the river bank where me and my dearest people were boiling some tea on the camping stove and chatting about silly nonsense

I can say that to be rejected is normal ^•^ Not all people are matching. Some nice people are just busy with life or have all "friend slots" taken. The best we can do is to learn to get it easy, not personal, with respect. It may make finding new friends and making new bonds less stressful and more pleasant UwU --- I'm not sure how I'm feeling today. Devoted much time to reflection and still in progress. 9x9

Oh! I found that we are discussing the book in book selection topic! Like she was manipulated with feeling of responsibility? Good point, miss

Fair point, @ExplosionMare ^•^ It just doesn't look like Sofie was really forced to overwork. Maybe she needed some good lesson of work/life ballance tho

Boops busy royal nose of @Ice Princess Silky <3

OMG, guys. I love the book. All that "fairytale logic" references like "oldest sister" or "third encounter shall be special" made me wish to read Propp's "Morphology of the Folk Tale" classifying all mentioned fairytale patterns. Aso it's reminding me of the Shrek, mocking classic fairytales. In addition I can say, that the stepmother doesn't look so bad at the first glance. She gave opportunities to all her girls (yes, they used opportunities differently, than it was supposed, but still) and didn't forget to work on her own retirement. Don't you think? Eventually I can add that I love how much the book differs from the movie. The difference makes it really worthy of reading

I had perfect performance today. Did everything as planned, handled certain unexpected issues. Finished a complicated task and helped someone to finish theirs... But that's still not enough. Backlog of stuff in life is overwhelmingly huge and seems growing... Oh, so angry I am

Oh! So many things, that I can't even count. I'm feeling pissed off and grumpy in general today.

I think it's mature decision. Support of friends is important, but sometimes adult people have to handle things by themselves. I wish you all the best on your path and glad to see you back to the forum any time Come back to have rest here after your deeds soon!

Hello, ponies! Here's a place to discuss the book we are reading Book: I remind you that the first book was chosen is Howl's Moving Castle (voting post) Schedule: The book itself happened to be not very big.

Hello, my little book ponies! We are continuing our little experiment ^-^ Interest check voting said that at least 8 ponies are interested in the fiction book reading club on the forum 8 is a great number. There's a lot of special magic in it. Here's ponies who shown at least some interest (except me of course 9w9). You really deserve to call yourself founders ^-^ @Clawdeen @Street Light @Tao @Fluttershutter @ExplosionMare @Longhaul @SparklingSwirls Now it's time to select the very first book to read. I ask you to share what book you would wish to read and why. Later we will collect options and will select the first book by voting. So the rules: Discussion of books is strongly encouraged! Anypony can join the fun any moment. I tagged mentioned founders to keep them up to date. Any amount of books can be offered and any mind can be changed any time Original interest check post: https://mlpforums.com/topic/205553-fiction-book-club-interest-check So, the first move is mine. I would like to read... the Wizard of Earthsea! Actually I have read it when was a kid, but now I feel that I want to re-read it. Why? Let's see... True classics of fantasy literature first published in 1964 The world with complex lore where magic is poetry Dragons! First book in series, so you can continue reading if you will enjoy the book too much Now I would like to know your options. Show me whacha got poniz! Pwetty pweeze And don't forget to share your opinions about books of each other It's a book club, it's time to talk about books. Have a nice day! Sincerely, your book unicorn, Crypty Scribbles. ^o^ P.S. @Pandora, thank you for the idea of book sharing ^~^

Do you wanna talk? Need a went after long day? Have any news to share? That's what this topic for. The rule is simple, to start a conversation you should post a pic of your cup of tea. I'll start. It was a long working week for me, but I'm proud for fruits of my labor. I even found a time for tidying up the new apartment. But the best is that weekend is ahead and I'm going to have a proper rest. Every weekend I spend some time with family, but this one I wish to have some quality personal time in addition. Maybe I'll be so lucky to shake dust from my wacom tablet after all this years. So, what's your plans for a weekend? P.S. happy summer solstice everypony.
