A Twin Canterlots anthology—first in the Lectern’s Books series

It’s good to find new hang-outs and not see the same old places constantly. Sci-Twi suggests Lectern’s New and Used Books—a pretty nice place with a pretty nice owner. It even has a front room and a back patio set up to hang out in.

Interior plans and pictorial views of the store and its lot are available.

Set during the summer vacation between the girls’ junior and senior years at CHS—latter half of season five.

The Stone family had been rock farmers for generations. It wasn't pretty work, but it was honest, and they made a living. As Ponyville grows around the princess, however, things change. With the town and all its new ponies, the farm is being crowded out. The family sells the farm and splits up, Old Mossy moving to Appleloosa, Granite to Stalliongrad, and Roller to Hoofington. But Alabaster and her husband Archer have kids, and they don't quite want to leave Ponyville behind, because friends are there. Being country folk, though, they can't quite stand to live without a bit of quiet. So they move to the only place near Ponyville with any quiet left: Everfree Forest.

After what feels like an eternity—but is only really the entire night—you finally finish your essay. While it prints, you decide to read the daily news.

Starlight's teleportation skills are becoming very impressive. There's just one little problem: she doesn't seem to be able to go anywhere without coming to a rather sticky end. Okay, not end exactly. But definitely sticky.

The first story in the Custardverse.

Now has a reading by Feral!

"As soon as I saw this story title, I was like, This is a good story idea." – Super Trampoline

As ye well know, nearly every sailor author comes up with more ideas than his head can hold or his quill can ink... but sometimes them little scraps o' storytellin' do make it down onto the page... a scene here, an introduction there; little snippets o' grander tales, cursed to forever sail a sea obscured by an unpublished fog...

These here be such stories; the scribbled scrimshaw of yers truly: MrAskAPirate!

Uh, cut! Cut please!

What? What's wrong?

Really? That's how you want to introduce this glorified scratchpad?

Okay, okay; I'll drop the accent.

And take off the eyepatch?

::sigh:: ... Fine.

Anyway, this is going to be a collection of the little bits and pieces that I've written and want to share with everypony, but don't quite qualify as anything that could be published on their own. In some cases it'll be a story I wrote the intro or a few scattered scenes for, but never completed. Sometimes they'll be little side-stories to my other works, or even the occasional 'deleted scene.'

As per normal for these types of collections, expect the characters, tags, and tone to vary widely. If you follow my writing you probably already know that I like to try out different things, so expect more of the same!

... I mean, more of things that are very different! From one another. Which is the same as my usual body of work. Of different things.

Smooth.

Shut up, Sparkle.
