Decided to remove all non-episode posts from the Equestria Weekly blog.

Just to keep things easier to follow.

To briefly summarize the two posts I removed:



1. Equestria Weekly will likely be every other week, just because I have about 10 hours to film a week, and there is a lot of hands-on learning to do.

2. There have been lots of problems with the next episode, but it is looking like I'll be filming Sunday and try to edit it Monday, perhaps. Bloody knuckles from a bad fall, a damaged MLP t-shirt from that as well, and a replacement audio cable that was a massive PAIN to obtain among the biggest annoyances between me and getting the next episode done.

3. I had a cold or something. Was too sick to film for awhile there. But now a few hours from trying to film I feel mostly recovered, and well enough to talk to the camera.

4. There will be a lot more material in the coming episodes. I'm looking up tons of art to put on the screen for relevant topics, doing original designs and art myself for gags, looking up details and facts about the topics, meticulously making sure there are links to put into the post, and the script is so long the episode will likely be 40-50 minutes.

5. Despite the length, it looks like it may take me a few months to get all the topics I consider a "must mention" for the brony community. Partially because of the self-imposed 2-per rule for topics, and partially because there are so many people behind the show interacting with the fans, so many noteworthy items, so many trends, so many fanon continuity with characters, art, music, fanfiction.. I have about 4 episodes worth of topics backed up, and I only have a sweeping list of things I want to put in the show.. I have plenty of material to keep this show going.

Point is an individual episode is going to be long and a huge undertaking. Especially as I am trying to hone my skills and improve; it's a bit early to tell, but I suspect the last episode and next episode will have a difference like night and day. I think those self imposed rules were probably a good choice.. even though I will be talking about music, fanfiction, and art before I talk about those trends as a whole in the brony community. It is also going to take awhile to talk about conventions..

I am also not going to be running out of subjects aaaaany time soon. Heck; I added 3 more to my list of topics while writing the last paragraph.

.. make that 5.

Alright. I'm gonna try to get a nap in before I start filming Episode 1.
