Author has written 12 stories for My Little Pony, Undertale, Night in the Woods, Angels with Scaly Wings, Arashi no Yoru ni/あらしのよるに, and Pac-Man.

Hi, I'm Thorin. For money, I run a library youth tutoring program that sees a lot of use by East African immigrants, and I tutor online. For fun, I roleplay online, play and design games, do math and philosophy, read stuff, write songs, drum and take long semi-random walks. To feed my spirit, I write: short stories, novels, poetry and, yes, fan fiction. Talking animal fiction is my forte. I've self-published an interactive novel called What Is Best?--you can read about it here. I was heavily into My Little Pony for four or five years, and as of this writing, I'm into the video game Undertale. I hope to clear out the fan fiction bug enough to get back to writing fiction soon that I actually have a chance of selling to someone!

Shortest Night reviews
The main cast of Night in the Woods take a trip to see the Great American Eclipse! What will happen there? Will it help make sense of Mae's strange experiences? What with the importance of astronomy to this game's themes, the 2017 solar eclipse seemed like a perfect fit.

Frames of Folly reviews
A collection of comedic oneshots about MLP: FiM. Some are observational humor, some are extensions of what's seen on screen, and some are humorous what-ifs. All they really have in common is (A) being at least somewhat funny and (B) not being elaborate enough to warrant their own stories. Hosted, after a fashion, by Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie.

The Combinatorics Project reviews
Among the Mane Six, there are fifteen possible romantic pairings. Some are obvious and fruitful; some less so. But what would happen if every single one of these pairings were packed into the -same fanfic?- The Combinatorics Project is an epic treasury of ponyships spread across five parallel universes. Partly satirical and partly in earnest, it goes to some truly wild places.
