One minor change to Lord Barleycorn · 7:54pm Jul 25th, 2017
I ripped out the disclaimers/headings.
I got used to them back on fanfiction.net, and it just felt... weird not seeing them at the top of my other work. But, ever since TCB - Punishment got initially rejected for my usual header, I got to thinking: it really is pointless. It's just habit by now, and everyone knows its a MLP story. If anything I'm just egotistically slapping my user name on each chapter (which I may also change, I've used Rambling Puppet for over a decade now).
Unintentionally, these headers have been inflating my word count. I watched as I took each one out the nearly 200K words I wrote dropped to 186,605. I'd rather get to such a milestone honestly than by some artificial means.
Hopefully this looks better to you guys. =3
MAN just write your heart out, i love your story by the way
Yeah, I've always found those sorts of headers a little redundant. Thanks for the tweak!
Do what you feel is best for your work, all of it is really good
By the way, have you written anything outside of the MLP Fandom, just curious
Yes, definitely better! Thanks!

Yes, and its all garbage. x3
Seriously, I keep my old account on Fanfiction active just to remind me how far I've come since I started posting my work back in 2004.
I haven't written any fics outside of MLP in some time, though.
By the way, you ever thought about adding a TVTropes page link in the fic's summary? You know, since the comment that made it is now buried under all the others and readers won't know about it unless there's a link there under the "recommended on TVTropes!" line?

Sure, good idea. =3
Done.
