OnionPie


I'm nothing special, but I am trying.

you deserve it. your story had me hooked from the beginning.

Very well written, and very suspenseful. Hope to see more!

Beautiful writing : )

Still as entertaining as the first time I read it, Norrie! I did notice a few minor mechanical errors (that we apparently missed during that first revision) but it's still an awesome story. Your writing style flows beautifully and kept me enraptured for the entirety of the piece. Eagerly looking forward to longer works from you!

Damn near perfect! No more, no less information than needed, and a great ending. THIS is how you do horror right.

Amazing... just amazing!

I like this, I like this a lot.

I have nothing but praise for this, unusual in its own right, but I maintain, I can't wait to read more of your work!

So incredibly written with such incredible suspense. Fantastic work! :pinkiehappy:

The opening scene did a great job at giving the reader a good sense of each characters' personalities right off the bat. The ending was a bit abrupt, but other than that, this is an excellent short story.

Yup, that's my first story for you. It's surprising that anyone's still reading it, but it's nice that you did.

Yet another brilliant read. Once again, the scenery was very vibrant, and the tension slowly mounted as the story went on until my heart was pounding at the end. Brilliant!

I was hoping it would be something cute like giant spiders but this was still good. :twilightsmile:

I see you've found my very first published fic. I'm half-tempted to take it down simply because I've improved so much since writing it almost three years ago, but I suppose it's nice to leave it as a milestone along the way to not-sucking-quite-so-much.

What? It's too good to remove. :pinkiegasp:

I still hope that one day you write something with cute giant face-eating spiders...the idea has built a web in my head.

Wow, this is awesome! I do love a fairly good horror story And this one does its job well. I think that you've set this thing up for a fantastic continuation if you choose to do so.
One question, though. Whatever happened to A song of Sun- and Moonlight? I get a 'Story does not exist" when I click on it, which is a bit disappointing - I would love to read it.
Anyway, wow! Cool stuff! My fantastical Muffin Rating gives you nine and a quarter muffins out of ten. :derpytongue2:

It was supposed to be an epic fantasy MLP novel. I put a decent amount of effort into it, but it just didn't work out. I outlined the whole thing, but only wrote a few chapters, and they were never published. I may come back to it again sometime. And hey, I'm glad you enjoyed this short story despite its age. Cheers.

‘I’ll show them’ he proudly thought to himself before his hoof hit something in the grass, and sent him tumbling face-first into the ground.

This was the first time I think I've ever laughed out loud when reading one of your stories. Good job.

As you've said before, there's a clear difference between your newest work, and your oldest. While reading I could tell this was an OnionPie story with the style of how it was told. Mostly in how the characters interacted, it felt very real like it always has in some form. But the story itself was predictable a little half way into it. Which is really my only critique I can give. Though at this point I'm not even sure if a critique would be wise to give on something that is over 3 years old. Especially when I believe I'm not saying anything that the author doesn't already know.

Either way, I enjoyed my time with the story. It's nice to go back and look at your old work, and compare it to now. Sometimes it's the only way to tell you're improving without anyone telling you.

Oh wow, that's some good production value. Love it! Good job! It's always a bit embarrassing being confronted by my older writing, but it brings back good memories. Thank you.

Solid fic! Great work on the characterization.
