Stairway to Equestria is now two years old! (6 days ago) · 1:04am Jan 27th, 2014

I have no idea how I missed it . . . busy work period is taking its toll, I guess.

21'st January marked two full years since the publishing of the first two chapters of this story. It's been a wild ride in which I learned so much about how to tell a story, met so may great people and spent hundreds of hours in front of .docx files, trying to translate ideas into words in a manner that you, the reader, would appreciate and enjoy as much as possible.

Stariway to Equestria turns 1 year ! · 1:33am Jan 4th, 2013

This day, exactly one year ago, I was posting the prologue and chapter 1 of Stairway to Equestria. I can't really believe it's been 1 year since then, means I'm a really slow writer. Fortunately, I can assure you all that this year the story will be finished !

Cosmic Afro, now my main editor, was writing this 1 year ago:

Very lovely chapter, and I love the name. "Midnight Blink"...it's got that ring to it like almost all pony names and it's kick butt.

Sugarcube Corner radio reviews Stairway to Equestria · 2:23pm Jan 1st, 2013

This was kinda unexpected . . . They got some plot details wrong but apparently they liked it.
Also, happy new year everyone !

Review link:

PS: Is the plot really that vague that you would make the mistake of thinking that Blink and Twilight are Death and Life and that Blink was accused of killing a filly ? (when in fact he was framed of kidnapping her before Discord's attack).
