I'd sample the story to give you an idea but on this particular occasion, I'd have to break the rules of the site.

So... apparently my submission for Art for Fanfiction's 2019 Summer Writing Contest won second place.
This is very, very strange. My writing is honestly not that good! Why do people like it so much?!
This is very weird, yet flattering.
Luckily I was smart put this in the hopper when Hailey started getting sick, because I sure wouldn't be able to set the story box stuff up today. This is the last good posting day before the contest deadline, so I'd better get it up.
If you enjoy it, please upvote, bookshelf, and comment! The algorithm rules all.
Since this was a solo pre-challenge, I'll present each submission in no real order.
Coalstone's Submission:
Coalstone now found himself in what could best be described as a completely empty black void and was now wishing greatly he understood just what the hell the challenge was he was asked to perform.
(I tried coming up with some way to invoke an image of Willem Dafoe emptying a handgun into the air and shouting the blog-post title, but nothing worked )
So I just noticed that MLAABQ is now sitting in the The Good HiE List-group's submission-folder. This is a bit different to the other group-submissions that's been.
Have you ever wondered why ancient pegasi told their foals never to build houses in anger? Or why the ground-bound kirin say an inattentive individual "has their head in the clouds"? Do rumors of a walking mountain in the Dragon Lands pique your curiosity?
No. Not that Twilight. But rather this one!
Well, this week has been full of interesting. Interesting in a way that brings to mind that common curse (thought as I understand it, it is neither ancient, nor Chinese) “may you live in interesting times.”
So far, there are only THREE entries to my CUDDLEFIC CONTEST (RULES AT THIS LINK), and the due date is THIS FRIDAY THE 15th! If you're editing your submission, make sure to publish it and put it in the group contest folder soon!
So I don't just write, I also dabble in art. Most of the cover art you see on my stories was made by myself, for example.
That said, currently, WeLoveFine is hosting an MLP Fan Forge contest dealy where anyone can submit a design and the designs with the most votes go into circulation as real merchandise. So I decided to give it a shot, and have created and submitted my own design (featuring Thorax), which you can see at the following link:
"Don't you ever touch me again you fluffy animal..." GOB grumbled as he watched Coalstone comprehend his predicament.
"Alright, alright, I got it!" Sentinel called out, gaining GOB's and the rest of the players attention.
"Well go on then, lad." GOB said with a smile. He noticed Coalstone struggling to tame his now fluffy fur as Nova fell onto his back and laughed at the stone cutter. This brought a smile to GOB's face.
I'm too sick to write something creative so this will be short and sweet. Here are the pre-challenge submissions.
#Shrekt's Submission
The losing team went to their stand in silence. Golden was silently cursing to himself about speaking out. He had to do something to make up for it.
Nova’s body still ached from the numerous attempts he made to bat. Now all of them served as reminders to his failure. While Spark was saddened for the lost she couldn’t help but feel worse for what the dragon was going through. He was so confident in his ability to win them the challenge.
Hey, you! Do you like to cuddle ponies? Of course you do- if you don't, you're a commie!
BRRR! It's COLD now and it's only gonna get COLDER over the next few days- here in Chicago, we might be smashing records tonight and tomorrow! (School is canceled for the next 1.5 days!)
Hey. Hey guys. Guess what.
We’re doing another Sombra’s Clipshow! There originally wasn’t going to be a second, but while I was going through editing SotS, two chapters in arc 7 needed to be consolidated into one because… the amount of exposition within them was really, really bad. So that left a hole in the plan. So I figured why not run another Sombra’s Clipshow? The last one went so well, let’s do it again! Except better!
Welcome back writers! It’s another Monday, and you know what that means. It’s time for more Being a Better Writer!
