  • Intro to Ponies 26 stories These are good even if you know little more about ponies than that some friends turned Nightmare Moon back into Princess Luna with magic friendship beams.


  • ❤ Pony Prose Perfection 34 stories Because even my Highly Recommended wasn't selective enough for these gems (<3% of stories I enjoy make it onto this list). These deserve more stars than I can reasonably give.


  • Pony Prose Imperfection 2 stories Would be in Pony Prose Perfection were it not for that one pesky serious flaw. In the case of both stories presently listed, that's entirely contained in the (skippable) epilogue.


  • ⁂ Highly Recommended 168 stories Stories I greatly enjoyed, that grab me and don't let go. (Five stars, basically.)


  • Flawed Gems 20 stories Would be in Highly Recommended were it not for that one pesky serious flaw (usually favorable treatment of immorality).


  • ⋆⋆⋆⋆ Recommended 1122 stories Not merely enjoyable, but quite excellent. (Four stars and up, if you will.)


  • Missing Piece 110 stories Would be in Recommended were it not for that one pesky serious flaw (usually favorable treatment of immorality).


  • Pick-Me-Up 112 stories To cheer the reader quickly and raise their spirits. Usually also in Recommended or up, but not always.


  • ⋆⋆⋆ Nice 2473 stories - 416 unread chapters The usual list of stories I enjoyed. (In essence, three stars and up.)


  • Cracked Glass 143 stories Would be listed in Nice were it not for that one pesky fatal flaw (usually favorable treatment of immorality).


  • Bloom Filter Trifecta 0 stories Stories in this bookshelf have gone beyond the impossible by including an algorithm with a name that puns off the main character's name and story title.


  • Proofread 1 stories Stories that I've worked on as a proofreader.

Twilight Sparkle isn't known to put anything less than her all into magic development. It's only natural she tried her best when Rarity asked her to make an anti-wrinkling re-vitalizing de-aging spell to help smooth some stray laugh lines.

Turns out her best is a little too good.

Now it's up to Shining Armor and Cadence to take care of their little sister, with an emphasis on the "little". Assuming her Royal Canterlot Voice temper tantrum doesn't cause the Crystal Empire to shatter first, that is.

Yellow sun; wet, green planet; barren, dust-ball moon. When I saw the images from the surveyors, I knew instantly that this was the place where I'd set up my hermitage.

The captain told me there were intelligent creatures on the planet, but she doubted they would venture beyond the atmosphere for centuries. That meant I'd have the moon all to myself for six standard months before her ship came back to resupply me.

Six months of peace and contemplation with only the Increate and the sound of my heartsbeat to keep me company. No distractions, no neighbors, no mad aliens with their endless demands.

Solitude. Silence. Paradise.

Or so I thought.

Fancy Pants and his lovely wife Fleur are quite possibly Canterlot's most heroic duet. Together they conquered countless events, faced hordes of snobbish socialites, and emerged victorious from the most dire of faux pas. May their bravery and finesse be forever remembered on parties to come!

There is a missing element in their perfect life, though: the joy of having a child and becoming a family. When conventional methods fail, will the couple muster enough courage to seek out the alternative, or will they stay a duet forever?

Enter Chestnut—a daring filly from beyond Equestria, out of their social stratum, and definitely exceeding their boldest expectations.

For better or worse.

A changeling who has lived at the side of an Equestrian mare for most of his life finds himself in the middle of the changeling invasion of Canterlot. He has no idea who the invading queen or hive are, and just wants to stay where he is, and more importantly, who he is.

The spell that ends the invasion doesn't discriminate, though. With his old pony form irreversibly stripped away, and the whole kingdom out to hunt his kind, he tries to keep his family together, and struggles to find his place in the world.

Please comment! Even now, I'd love to hear what people think as they read through :pinkiehappy:

Hollow Shades is a small farming and lumberjacking community, a tiny bubble of Equestria existing on the edge of the Everfree Forest. Things have been hard-going since the lumber mill was closed down and the town is slowly dying out. A young filly named Corn Crib however might have found a solution when she makes a bargin with a talking scarecrow she meets along the road. But who is Lord Barleycorn, and how can he possibly breath life back into Hollow Shades?

This is a lighthearted story that contains lots of OCs outside of Ponyville. The mane six will appear, but not until later chapters.
