Knock, knock. Who's there? EQD. · 4:13am Jan 28th, 2013
So had dinner and loaded up the old laptop and found this waiting for me:
Oh ponyfeathers... Cue happy dance!
But seriously, now the pressure is on. I already thanked everyone who helped me with this story, and was told to stop doing it...
Too bad! I'm gonna do it again! With links! MUHAHAHA! (Okay so I am copy and pasting.)

I have a really long list of people to thank for helping me over the last couple of months, so here we go:
notMurphy: Author of the excellent A Minor Variation, one the best and original takes on an alternate Mane6 universe fics I’ve read. This guy turned what started as something mediocre (he denies this) and turned it into something readable. Not only did he take the time to offer really good suggestions, but he wrote a multipage critique. His constructive analysis resulted in a number of major rewrites; the end product being a much more coherent narrative. Bottom line, without NotMurphy, there wouldn’t be a story.
Karkadinn: Author of the uniquely brilliant Unnatural Selection(read it now!). I love this guy’s writing, so I asked for a little feedback. Guess what I got? A massively detailed critique. He held no punches, pointing out everything, good or bad, chapter by chapter. Many of the changes in flow resulted from his comments.
Georg: Author of numerous funny and interesting stories. A number of stylistic changes were the result of his feedback. Trust me, this guy knows good style.
Kendandra: Months ago I was reading a little story by the name of Static World. Everything was going along smoothly till I read the chapter titled “The Sun has Forsaken Thee!” The last scene seared itself into my brain, refusing to leave till I outlined Liberate the Sun. So if anyone hates my story, blame Kendandra (sorry buddy).
Letedwend: Proofreader/grammar nazi. I apologize, my friend. Without you, many missing words and grammatical errors would still be in existence. Many commas lost their lives to his vigilant eye.
ping111: Proofreader and person responsible for me having to rewrite the prologue for the SIXTH time! But seriously, he found a major flaw after I decided to rearrange the scenes within the prologue and it works much better.
Jake The Army Guy: Author of Luminous Sky and the creator of the intriguing Agent Bentgrass. Thanks for the motivation to keep going.
nygiants93: Author of far too many stories and all around great guy and the first one to give the story a fave!
Also, thanks to my little bro and others who didn't want to be named here.
End copy and paste.
So this is me now: So much pressure. ARRRRRRGGH!
Now back to work on the next chapter!
The dancing pic is awesome. Congrats on your EQD feature. Now get back to work
Someday I, too, hope to leave a blog post like this.
Anyways, congrats again man, I'm really happy for you. You really deserve it
Congratz Seether, can not wait for more.
See, you had nothing to worry about. ;) Although worrying is also productive in moderation. Just gotta remember to balance out OCD Twilight with happy dancing Twilight!
Congrats, dude! You totally deserve it.
That really is an old laptop
When I saw the post I thought the name looked familier! Congrats!!
Congrats, dude! You've got talent; don't you forget that. I look forward to working with you in the future (hopefully).
