Follower Reward Program! (A revised idea) · 1:22pm Jan 16th, 2014
Hello all.
I thought about it a bit and decided to revise my idea of the follower/reward thing to be ongoing instead of a one time thing. Starting at 400 followers and every 25 afterwards, I will select one random follower and offer to write them a short-story. It can be anything their heart desires. Basically if I pick you, I'll ask you to choose a type of story (Shipping/clop/horror/adventure/etc), a character or two (including your OC's if you want), and any special content you'd like. (A specific event ie: wedding/fetish/conflict/etc)
I'm willing to write about pretty much anything the winner wants. And I mean anything. Believe me, I've seen some weird stuff, nothing really bothers me anymore. You want a clopfic of Silver Spoon and Discord? Fine. You want a wedding between Rarity and a Diamond Dog? Fine. Maybe even a creepy horror fic in the bowels of Tartarus. No problem.
So bust out those blogs/tumblrs/friend-lists and help new ponies get on board the 'To Love the Moon' train. The more followers, the more chances you have to win!
***Legal Disclaimer: Please avoid asking under 18's to participate since some of my material is clearly adult. If you are chosen and ask for adult fiction, you must tell me you are over 18.***
The rules are as follows:
1) Starting at 400 followers and every 25 after, I will pick a random follower.
2) I will send a message to the chosen, and if no response after 1 week, I will pick another.
3) Anything goes, but the story will not be longer than 10k or so words. It's a short story, not a whole novel.
4) The chosen can pick their favorite character or two for the story to be centered around or use OCs. (They cannot use an OC owned by another person)
5) I still own the rights to the story (For legal clarification) but the winners are welcome to print/link/share with whomever they desire as long as I'm still credited as the author. OC's used within the story are still properties of the original creators.
6) I promise to write the best fic I can with the characters and genre I'm provided. Use this as an opportunity to get a fic of something you want but rarely see.
That should be everything. Good luck ponies (and griffons)!

I look forward to seeing these ^^.
I hope you don't regret agreeing to fetish's and such ;)

1724226 not at all I have my own little guilty pleasures. Challenge as a writer is being able to take something you may not like and still create something others will.
1724257 I guess so. :)
Well, again, i look forward to it. Here's too hoping i'm one of the lucky ones *Raises glass* XD

While I understand the format, but it's bit too vulnerable to selfish people, who will not lift a hoof to aid. Not too much of a concern though... maybe?
Don't have a lot of following, but will try to promote.

Vulnerable to selfish people? Eh, no more than writing this story in the hopes that people take five seconds to thumbs-up. And if they're not active, that's why I gave only a week window to answer my notice. You all will get the read the bonus stories, so think of it as a win-win.
I vote that everyone who wins should vote for a new chapter of To Love the Moon.
Anyone else?

You're gonna get that regardless. These little side-stories are just a challenge thing for me and a way to promote TLtM. I secretly hope I get a request for some Silver Spoon. Her hairstyle and those glasses are cute as hell.
1725757 And hey, when portrayed properly, can lead to a great story filled with drama and shit.
Couldn't help but notice this blog on the side of the page. Is this still happening?

Aye, just had to put it to the side while I get something going for you fillies and gentlecolts on the main-story. Priorities, but yeah, I already have a 400 person contacted.
1999046 Cool! I look forward to what you'll do
