      17,661 words · 1,190 views · 71 likes · 2 dislikes

    Behind every great book is a great writer. Almost everypony knows of the intrepid adventures of Daring Do, but few know the truth about her creator.

    This is the story of Opal Parchment, a young mare trying to finish the last Daring Do adventure before it's too late. Her quest lands her in Ponyville, where Opal gets the unexpected help of two of her biggest fans.

    Whatever the reason I'm up at 4 am reading this, I'm glad that I am.

    Also, this makes me feel slightly guilty about the way I've ended nearly every chapter I've written with a cliffhanger. Just a little.

    I've had it pre-read already a couple of times, pretty sure I got most of it.

    It might be a case of something I put in on purpose, but looks like a typo.

    I definitely spotted a typo or two as I went through it. If you hit ctrl + f and type ", ," you should find one, for example.

    I would love to see this continued. Any chance of that? I also happened across this thanks to Kwakerjak.

    Welcome to chapter 2. After 9 years 3 months in development, hopefully it will have been worth the wait.

    Couple of things:

    1. I threw in a reference to Kwakerjack's Wild, Sweet & Cool fic, after he did the same for me. Actually, he got me off my flank to write this. Go check it out if you haven't already.

    2. I could really use a proper cover image for my fic. If anypony can help me out on that, I'd appreciate that.

    That's all for now, enjoy the chapter (again, if you haven't already)

    Much as I'm liking this story, I don't really feel any sympathy for Dash. It seemed kinda hypocritial of her to call Opal a coward for not standing up to an extremely controlling father who is completely willing to send armed thugs after her, yet find her venturing into the everfree  to be completely insane. Of the two I think the everfree would be the one to take less courage.

    As long as you keep working on your book, you can stay here as long as you need.

    "But if you stop, we'll be perfectly fine throwing you to the wolves!" :rainbowlaugh:

    But seriously, this is pretty good so far. :twilightsmile:

    i am not going to lie to you the only complaint in the entire story i have is the akward and sudden argument dash and opal get.

    the rest is great thought i did come here out of open reqest from Kwakerjak after reading the story you refed (its the book) i am now currius after reading this where hes ref was?

    posonly it is completly your call if you continue but you have something great here if you do. after all i had to scrap one of my own and under stand that sometimes BIG gaps happen (trails and trials).
