Remember My Little Avengers? That cute, fast-paced romp that updated like once a week at least, as opposed to my current glacial pace? Remember how you all wanted a sequel ASAP, and I was like "Nah, Imma work on My Choices instead"? Well, a proper sequel is still a ways off buuuut we have the next best thing - a side story!

Those of you who bothered to read the A/N at the end of My Little Avengers may recall that I invited talented authors to participate in building the Marevel Equestria universe by writing their own stories, so long as they ran them by me first. Well, somebody actually took me up on that offer, and has just now posted the very first chapter of My Little Avengers: Deadpool, featuring everypony's favorite Merc With a Mouth!

The author is a good friend and fan of mine, and while this is his first fic it looks great so far! He's got some good talent and a great sense of humor, plus an excellent understanding of character that really makes the story come alive. These are all important factors when writing a character as nuts as Deadpool, and he carries it off well. Check it out, and shower as much praise upon him as possible so that I may stand behind him with a proud, paternal grin and bask in the reflected glow of my protegee's success.

Go! Now! Why are you still here? Oh, you wanted an update on My Choices? I'm working on it. I'm gonna put the pedal to the metal this week, and see if I can't get it out by the weekend. Wish me luck!

Now GO!
