Ditzy Doo, known to some as "Derpy", is not a "smart" pony. In fact, she's developmentally disabled, and every day is a struggle to just get by. But despite all that, she loves life and especially loves stories — loves reading them and loves making them up. More than anything else, she wants to learn to write, and share her stories with the world. When Princess Twilight discovers an intelligence-enhancement spell that could enable her to learn faster and more effectively, a spell that could make her "smart", Ditzy is overjoyed to be the first pony to have her intelligence enhanced. But not everything turns out as planned, and unforeseen consequences of the complicated magic prove to be a greater blessing, and a greater curse, than anypony could have expected.

An homage to Daniel Keyes' short story "Flowers For Algernon", told in epistolary style.

Many thanks to A British Gentleman and King Moriarty for their helpful editing recommendations.

It was all a mistake.

A portal opened up during their Wonderbolts training exercise and Rainbow Dash fell through, saving a teammate in the process... But at a cost. Now stranded in an Equestria that is all but foreign to her, Rainbow Dash must figure out why exactly she is there and what she needs to do to get back.

Yet when something happens that Rainbow could never have been prepared for, she decides that enough is enough. Stricken with guilt and compelled to do what's right, Rainbow finds herself stuck between a rock and a hard place. With her name already meaning nothing so far in the past, she decides to call herself one that she still viewed as the epitome of awesomeness and nobility in all of history...

A Wonderbolt.

It begins with several small things: A filly, a scroll, and a smartphone. However, Equestria soon finds itself catapulted into a larger world, a world where everypony else had spent the last thousand years innovating both magically and technologically. A world where smartphones and 3D printers have existed for centuries. A world where powerful wizards consider death a temporary inconvenience, and who can utilize magic on a level far beyond anything any pony had ever imagined. A world... where earth ponies use magic more masterfully than any unicorn that ever lived... or alicorn currently alive.

Equestria is now far behind the rest of the world, and will have to catch up... and quickly, because while the ponies of Equestria do find themselves with new allies, they now also have new enemies, ones who would consider the annihilation of Equestria as a stepping stone towards grander ambitions, and consider unicorns and alicorns as amusing novelties, instead of wizards and demigods...

[Parody/Satire] [Cringe Challenge]

Have you ever wondered where all the cliche characters, atrocious OCs, and overdone stereotypes go when society wants nothing to do with them? That there is a world where they roam and rule freely? One such pony finds out, not without her own journey, filled with wonder and discovery of this new perfect universe.

This is the most wonderful story of the worst clichès ever put into one single story. "Enjoy" the cringe.

After interrupting a ritual after being kidnapped by the people performing it, five normal students get sent to Equestria, each of them receiving a new form in the process: the forms of classic monsters. A vampire, a werewolf, a mummy, Frankenstein's Monster, and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

How will Equestria react to these monsters? How will the monsters react to them?

Contains profanity.

Filthy Rich had it all: a corporate empire, mountains of bits, fame and recognition throughout Equestria, and a photogenic family. What was left for him but to go into politics? And the night before his inauguration as Mayor of Ponyville, is there any power - or any pony - that can help him out and limit the potential damage?

Perhaps there is. Perhaps it's one of the last ponies anyone would have expected. (Rated T for alcohol consumption and adult situations.)
