Story Recommendation: 'Flashes on the Horizon' · 7:12pm Aug 19th, 2013
I looked over this story before it went up on EQD and thought it was pretty rad. I can't espouse its virtues nearly as much as 'Erase and Rewind', but I'd definitely say people should check it out nonetheless. It's a quaint piece that deals with the idea of interpretation and perspective in regards to personal importance, and paints a nice feeling of helpless wonder throughout the entire story. In short, it's about a bunch of ponies watching something amazing happen, and knowing that it must be important, even though they have no idea what it is.
Go read it if you have a minute.

You're right--that was a good one. Strange, but good. What is a story? Is a story about ponies failing to watch another story a story? I guess so, in this case. Very meta, kinda postmodern.
