I admire you for publishing this story today on the day that it actually pertains to,
whether you planned it or not I don't know,
But I still admire you for it.
(And I do it too.)

I didn't know. I assumed that Hearth's Warming Eve was December 24th, but who knows for sure.

I plan on publishing a story (at least the first half) of December 30th on, well, December 30th. Stay tuned.

I also plan on publishing a story tomorrow, Big Mac Speaks His Mind.

Wouldn't it be Merry Hearths Warming?

Take a look at Discord's entrance.

I thought this was great, and it gave me a bit of a laugh while I was trying to wrap up the last of my presents. I hope to see more of your work in the future. :trollestia:

:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

That was good. Happy Hearth Warming and Merry Christmas IRL to you as well.

Shameless Plug: I'm publishing another comedy tomorrow.

I look forward to it. :trollestia:

I do hope that The Book of Sand wasn't too obscure.

:rainbowlaugh: In this state all the bumper stickers have "somebody for PRISON 2016":pinkiehappy:

May your Christmas be bright & merry.:flutterrage:Joy!

Very nice story and funny too!

One question, who is the red squirrel Discord referenced?

“The Book of Sand? Ooo – I’ll read it cover to cover.”


She's immortal, she has the time.

Red squirrel? Princess Sally? There are so many lore shockwaves here that they kinda distract from the story on that one.

That being said, most of Discord's gifts show actually forethought and emotion on his part. (Particular AJ's gift). You think Pinkie Pie would know what Christmas was, she celebrates it with Minty every year. :-)

Merry Christmas!

Yes, the "red squirrel" is a reference to Princess Sally Alicia Acorn. From what I've read, she is a squirrel/chipmonk. Though that ignores the original blonde hair "Pink Sally", the black haired Sally, the robotisized Sally, and the time Sally was in NICOLE's hand held module. I think that's all. Anyways, it does refer to Sally.

Not even an immortal alicorn could read the entire book!

Dreadnought

7817647 Oh right! Sally Acorn from Sonic SatAM and comic series. Almost forgot about her. :derpyderp2:

Anyway, great job with the story! :twilightsmile:

Don't know if you've seen it, but I just posted my new story. You can read it here.

Dreadnought

Love this, but I just realized, where's Starlight?

7816640
I just published my new story, What About Us?, which takes place on December 30th. Another appropriately timed story.

Sorry. I looked for a Hearth's Warming screenshot but the only good one I could find had Starlight. I'd have created my own cover art, but my art is less like da Vinci, or even van Gogh, and more like Pollock.:raritywink:

But for canon purposes, Starlight should be thought of visiting family and friends elsewhere in Equestria.

Dreadnought

Nice story. I must approve. Friendship and love are the best gifts.
