Last chance to make requests for my 6th Anniversary story(ies) · 3:59pm Nov 24th, 2024
Boo!
Okay that was lame. Let's pretend that didn't happen....
If you missed my last blog, December 15th is going to mark my 6th year anniversary on this site and I will write at least one special story for it. What makes it "special" is that you will get to request what it will be about! To join this mini-celebration, give a premise of what you want in a story, who the main character(s) would be, and your preferred overall tone or genre(s) for it. You can also say how you would like the story to go and/or end or just leave it up to me. You can request up to 3 story premises. One will be released on the 15th of next month, and if I write more than one story, the 2nd and possibly a 3rd story will be released separately in the following days, but which days is TBD.
There will be rules the requests will have to follow, though. Da' rules are:
#1: Anything suggested should be able to be under 10,000 words. That said, this is a soft 10,000-word cap.
#2: If it would be "M" rated, it can't require either the "sex", "fetish", "non-con", or "porn" tags.
#3: If it uses my human OC Eric Reed, it must be able to happen during G4's Season 8 timeline, can't turn Eric into a pony, dragon, changeling, etc. (at least not permanently; a temporary transformation is fair game), and cannot introduce any non-EQG humans. However, a story using a new human OC(s) or an Anon that is separate from my Eric Reed stories can be requested.
#4: The story can't be a sequel to: A Giant Adventure to Equestria., When Dating a Sunset..., Caught and Punished, or The Ulima. A sequel or prequel to any of my other stories is far game.
#5: No crossover or G5 stories. I hope to be able to have the "no G5" condition be axed for next year, however.
#6: Nothing about real-life politics. I hear that talked -- and whined -- about too much as it is, thank you very much.
#7: No fix-fics, unless it's as a light-hearted comedy or parody. Caveat: if a story simply addresses something that happened in the show, but doesn't try to "fix" it by changing canon, it can be requested. For example, a non-comedic story about Celestia asking Twilight if she wanted to be Equestria's ruler and she eventually says "yes" is allowed. However, the same kind of story with Twi refusing to take over, something a more traditional fix-fic might do, is a no-go.
#8: No story that needs to derail a character(s) for the plot to work. I.e. a "Spike runs away" story that has the Mane 6 act unusually mean without some prior justification (such as having a bad day), just to provoke Spike into getting fed up and running off.
#9: Last but not least, you must be a follower.
And that's it. Happy picking if you want to. Now I'm off to recover from a cold I caught.
Ta-ta!
