Hello, everyone, and happy holidays. In the spirit of the season, I have an important announcement I want to make to you, my readers:

In one month exactly, I will be posting a new and improved version of Butterflies In Her Stomach.

Yes, it is going to be exactly one year after it was originally posted, and it is going to be better than ever. While the original isn't bad, really, when I look back on it, it just seems so... amateur. I've improved as a writer over the last year. I can do better. I will do better. It is my personal philosophy that the most important thing a writer can be is self-criticizing. If you can't critique yourself, you can't improve, simple as that. So I'll show you how much I've matured as a writer in just fifty-two weeks. In that time, I've written a story five times as long as BiHS, which I honestly think might be the best thing I've brought into the fandom so far (pity that I got so few comments hint hint please read it if you haven't it's the first two episodes with mages, explosions, and fight scenes).

Mark your calendars, friends.

Thirty one days until the release of Butterflies In Her Stomach: The Director's Cut.

Butterflies In Her Stomach

Fluttershy, after a painfully awkward dance at a party with Big Macintosh, goes around Ponyville asking her friends what love feels like. This ends about as well as it could be expected to, and Rarity decides to take things into her own hooves.

01/25/12 - Director's Cut released! Rewritten! Remastered! Re... something! Whatever!

Cover art by the awesomely talented Whitestar1802 on deviantART. No, seriously, his art is incredible. Just... just go look at it.

My Little Mages: The Nightmare's Return

Twilight Sparkle, Arcane Mage, knows that there is some truth to the story of Nightmare Moon, but her mentor, Princess Celestia, dismisses the matter in a heartbeat. She sends Twilight to the town of Magiville to oversee preparations for the Summer Sun Celebration, much to Twilight's distaste.

Unbeknownst to her, the darkness is gathering in Mystica. Assassins lurk in the shadows, Undead gather in the forest, werewolves sharpen their claws, and criminals and mercenaries prepare themselves.

To win the coming battle, Twilight will have to rely on her wits, her magic, and the five mages she's been saddled with. No matter how much they annoy her.

Rated teen for violence and language. Humanized, action-y. Based on the first two episodes, with some large changes made.

Homewarming (And Other Silly Stories)

Another collection of silly short stories.

1. Homewarming: In which Twilight gets a new neighbor, learns more about her than she ever knew, and Pinkie breaks the Fourth Wall more than is absolutely necessary. "I do not!" You do too, Pinkie. Get out of the summary.

2. Innocence: In which Cheerilee must give her students a lesson that she does not want to give them.

3. Accident: In which Little Strongheart runs from a foolish stallion who doesn't understand the meaning of his actions.

Part of the Butterflies Continuity.

I would, but MLM didn't get as much of a readership as I'd hoped it would. Keep in mind that I spent almost literally my entire summer working on it. I wrote, I edited, and I edited again. And what happened? Fifty nine comments, sixty five likes. I'd wanted, well, more. I have plenty of ideas in my head for what other stories would be (MLM-ifying a few episodes, like Dragonshy, Over A Barrel, Return of Harmony, and A Friend In Deed), but I don't think I'll be acting on them in the near future. I've got way too many irons in the fire right now, and I want to take care of those first.

I will hunt you down and unleash a psychotic serial tickler upon your helpless form if you put MLM on hiatus for more than a month.

Have a nice day! :pinkiecrazy:
