    Reopening for proofreading

    After quite a break, I'm planning to take on proofreading again. Old and new authors are welcome, but be advised that I won't be taking on just quite as much at once as I used to do.

    No more proofing accepted for a bit

    As it says, I'm sadly a bit behind in my proofing and so until further notice I'm afraid I can't accept any stories from new authors. My current authors can still send me stuff though.

    Ten. MILLION. Words.

    So this is what I've become. You people have made me read ten million words about pastel-coloured ponies making muffins, eating cake, baking pies and eating each other out. I hope you're happy, you monsters.

    Thirty Minute Pony Stories Prompt #3 Submission - 'Surprise'

    As some of you may know, the Tumblr 'Thirty Minute Pony Stories' recently started up by several well-respected poni authors required you to spend no more than the eponymous period of time on writing a short story based around whatever prompt the mods give out. I missed the first two but was up and around when the third was posted, which was:

You have an Amiga still!? Mine died. :fluttercry: I'm all jealous now.

I miss you every day, Moonstone.

I hope bad things happen to you.

>> Tagging me.
OH U. You're quite the one.

I do, though they don't get much use now.

Well, you posted on my blog so I guess it's started?

:ajsmug:

Urg...I barely know eleven people, never mind eleven people that would actually bother to do tagging journals. And I spam enough content-less blog entries anyway... :c Sorry, but I am so skipping out on this. I'll answer your questions, though.

5 Things About Me:
1) If you had to pick a word to describe me, the first word to come to mind would probably be 'small'. I stand at 5'8 and weigh in at just over/under 100 pounds, so my physical presence is not my greatest attribute.
2) Despite the above point, the SECOND word that comes to people's minds is usually 'scary'. Despite having the physique of a poplar tree, and the punching ability of a malnourished kitten, most people seem to think I'm terrifying. To the point where strangers have remarked on it in the street. Even some of my best friends admit to having been scared of me before they were introduced and realised I'm a pretty cool guy who writes stories and doesn't afraid of anything that bleeds or feels pain.
3) I can do yo-yo tricks.
4) I wear bandannas and bowler hats, and fear no fashionista.
5) One of my nicknames is Hamster. I have never really understood why this is.

1. Who is Best Pony?
Octavia's mom. Second best pony is Octavia's mom's hat. Third best is Twilight Sparkle. Fourth is Vinyl, and fifth is Rainbow of the Dash.

2. What's your favourite piece of pony music, be it show-featured or fan-original?
Not really big into the whole musical nomenclature, but favourite MLP fan vid would probably be The Legend Of Pony: Navi Pie. Hey listen, indeed...(but would it be Hay Listen instead?)

3. What's the best story you've ever read on FIMFiction?
I read so very infrequently....;.; Lessee, Green, Twice Shy, Where You Can't Follow, Where The Earth Meets The Sky, all are good. Oh, and I nominate Life Gives You Apples for best drabble collection I've read, since I've only seen one other one and I wrote that too. :trollestia:

4. If your life story was being fictionalised then would you prefer it to be as a TV show, film, novel or comic book?
Who the hell would want to fictionalise my life? I spend vast periods of it hunched over a computer muttering to myself. Mind you, that could probably be skipped over in a couple pages of dialogue, so novel for me.

5. Who is worst pony?
Rarity. Goddamn it, she has so many bitch points.

6. What's the best dish unique to your region that you have ever tasted? Can you also make it?
I hail from Britain. We try to avoid eating ingesting local cuisine. Not for nothing is our national dish curry nowadays. I think the local delicacy where I live is some sort of meat pie? I've never even seen one. We're well known for our brand of cheese, though.

7. Derpy or Ditzy?
Derpy, simply because that's the name that appears when you mouseover the character portrait when submitting the story. Also, because every time I hear 'Doo' I'm always like, 'Raggy, have you got any Scooby Snacks?'

8. It's my round, what are you having?
Real men drink milk. :rainbowdetermined2:

9. If you=pony, and pony must pony pony, then who = pony?
Verb.

10. Who is Best Villain?
Rarity. Oh, wait, she's not evil. Yet. Actually, I think Spike was best villain in his brief period of being ridiculously greedy. Seeing a snarky and intelligent character like his Spikeness devolve into a mindless, roaring beast made me sad inside.

11. What motivates you to write? Or, if you don't write, what motivates you to read, critique and comment? Or, if you do none of these, why are you a lazy sod?
Boredom, mostly. I'm nocturnal and need something to do at night. I read all my books, and going out at one in the morning for a casual stroll is just asking to have a knife pulled on you. It's a very inexpensive habit, and has the benefit of exercising my ailing English skills.

Ooooooh burn, you sure showed me.

149125 Lovin' this argument. I'm just gonna sit here and watch. Maybe use that 'burn' to make some popcorn. Oh wait...
