The Great Follower Project

Thanks for all the comments, favorites and watches over the past 24+ weeks I've been here. Really means a lot to me, yada yada yada.

But what is "The Great Follower Project?"

I will draw a number from my dapper top hat. That number corresponds to the order in which somebody started following me (The first one would be 1, ect.). Whatever number I draw, I will PM the winner and they will get their own, genuine EpicGuy story! You choose the length, categories, characters... Everything! Nothing's off limits- if you want a Mature, adventure story about Luna battling a band of vicious turrets from Portal, I'll do it! If you want a terrible Cupcakes ripoff with Carrot Top making carrots out of her victims, I have no choice but to do it!

This promotion will keep going as long as I have followers to pick from. The winner's story will be published approximately who-knows-how-long days from the drawing, and after that I will either draw a new victim. Everybody will have an equal chance, no doubles.

1st winner- Soarin Peterson

Story: Pending Approval

2nd winner- Lazypoisonfl

Story: Happy Hooves

3rd winner- iloveportalz0r

Story: Crepusculum

4th winner- Pencil_Doodle

Story: Hello, Harmony

5th winner- Tricondon

Story: RarityQuest

6th winner- FreudTastic

Story: Need to write

Inspired by VitaExdet's project.

The Shelf Not Browsed

[Slice of Life]
The odds and ends of published ramblings and unreleased ones, with loads of uneeded shipping! Yay!

The walls mock me.

They leer and laugh and howl at my misery, my being, my soul.

I know exactly what you’re thinking- I’m crazy. Insane. Off my rocker. And you know what? You’d be correct. But it isn’t as if I haven’t been told.

Do you want to know why I’m here?

Of course you do.

My mind is why I’m here. Or lack of.

I’ve been within these accursed walls for at least fifteen years. I say “at least” because the lines I etched into my little corner of hell have long since faded away. Perhaps it was time, or perhaps the guards filled them in with plaster.

The guards. Oh, the guards. If the Lunacy Asylum for Impaired Ponies is my death sentence, they are the harbingers. All ten of them have the same mane-cut- a single slice of hair that dangles in front of their eyes, much like a shy foal’s- and the same stubby tails. In all other aspects, though, they’re completely different. Most of them have eyes as solid as stone and stances as still as a statue. They’re the ones who treat me like a simple pet- “Sit! Stay!”- or a soulless husk of the mare I once was.

Heh. Maybe those idiots are correct.

A select few have touches that are as gentle as pegasus down, and eyes that radiate both passion and compassion. I count my blessings when one of those two or three guards escort me to my next appointment, or are selected to watch me for the day. Sometimes I have these thick, magical, beautiful dreams where they massage my aching wings and repeat the words “everything will be just fine. Everything will be just fine.”

But it won’t. I wake up, take a swift check of my surroundings, then cry. But honestly, I like the tears.

I just don’t like the pain.

So, productivity is a thing.

I knew that.

The Art of Racing in the Snow

Rarity often compared her situation to the day-to-day of the gorgeous mares and loyal stallions in her romance novels- fall in love where you'd least expect it, develop a heartfelt crush, and finally confess to the pony of your dreams.

But what if the mare you loved didn't feel the same way?

Rarity's simple confession sets off a mental battle in the minds of both her and Rainbow Dash- battles that make them ponder what's important in life, the meaning of companionship, and the art of racing in the snow.

We Were the Ones You Used to Make Fun of

This fic is under heavy construction- meaning some key plot points and even complete chapters will be removed or changed drastically. I recommend either downloading the story now if you enjoy it, or wait under corrections are made before you begin. Thanks!

Comedy tag applies only to early chapters

Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie have been together for quite a long time and are quite happy with where they are today. But it took a long time, many arguments, and lots of broken hearts to get it this way. Very fortunate and thankful, they decide to look back on the rollercoaster that is their close relationship.

FlutterPie fic. Don't like? Don't read.
