    Interesting, but I think you need help with the word quiet. "the crowd got louder and quitter with the passing of the hour" should be "the crowd got louder and quieter with the passing of the hour". "Quite you fool!" Should be "Quiet you fool!". I also noticed some repetition that just makes the sentence sound funny in the beginning: "Each moment in the sun had been like a dry blast against her body by the sun". I would suggest reading what you write out loud, so you can hear how it sounds. Other than those things, you've got a good start. Looking forward to seeing more!

    Minor typo: "This was a pony that didn’t want to be scene." Should be 'seen', other than that great setup. Can't wait for more.

    Here comes to the Daring-Doo fan-fictions that will be perfectly made and the other shitty unoriginal ones.

    After watching the episode I knew it was only a matter of time until this would happen, don't over-blow this out of the water like Fallout: Equestria and Past Sins. (A.K.A Overrated.)

    I'd have been a fool to not see this coming. The second I realized the direction "Read It and Weep" was taking with its narrative, I knew it'd be a matter of days - hell, hours - until Daring Do found her way into one-shot adventure stories. How I managed to dodge all of them until today is beyond me, but by last count there are already fifteen stories with her newly-christened tag plastered onto them (some older stories having just updated their tags to include her).

    And this fic is the reason it's a GOOD thing Daring is perfect bait for new stories.

    It seems that one way to have a story get a lot of views and comments within three days is by making it a Daring Do adventure, and rightfully so, because she's awesome!

    Now, on to my review - I am really liking this so far, and I think you've implemented Daring Do's character really well!

    This is a nice concept, although there are still a whole ton of proofreading and formatting errors. To be honest, those are so thick that it's pretty hard for me to enjoy the story. I did still enjoy it, though, but you should get some editor / reviewer people to help you revise the hell out of this one. Until then, I'll hold off with the stars. :trixieshiftleft:

    >there was hardly time for that in her life, for there was always the next adventure.

    >>352993 Okay, maybe not one-shot as in just one chapter and it's over, but from what I've seen (not that I've really looked very hard), the authors of these stories don't write MORE Daring stories. Which, when I think about it, I'm not sure I can fault them for.

    Or we just say I misspoke when I used the term, because I can't be held accountable for my thought processes a month and a half ago.
