More stuff I think you should check out · 6:43am Oct 9th, 2013
Special message for those visiting my blog for the first time: This isn't the first time I've linked to groups, writers, and stories that I thought were noteworthy. Check out some earlier blog entries, won't you? (And maybe one of my stories, if you have time to kill.)
Extra-special message for those who started following me recently: So sorry to hear about your head injury. Get better soon!
The Princesses (group) - Because princesses. Because alicorns. Because ponies. "For Equestria!"
Martian (writer) - His stories seem to contain, as a matter of routine, some of the most poetic imagery I've encountered on this site. This is someone who deserves more attention. I know there are people out there who hang on my every word, and I urge all both of you to check him out.
CartsBeforeHorses (writer) - He writes funny stuff, he founded a group for the purpose of gathering every single story on the site with good grammar, and I'm pretty sure that I saw in a couple of threads that he's a fellow Colorado brony.
Making Friends by Arcum42 - Now it can finally be told: the story THEY didn't want you to hear! Or possibly just a light-hearted prequel of sorts.
Pinkie's Present by PixarPrincess - To be filed under "short and sweet", "cute", and "Actually, that kind of makes sense."
A Little Help from Her Friends by Bootsy Slickmane - Paraphrased Beatles lyrics for the title, Cutie Mark Crusader shenanigans, a speaking part for one of the rarer background ponies, a Pinkie Pie cameo role, a huge misunderstanding -- what's not to love?
Sleepless Nights by Silarias - Filly Twilight. Set course for Hnnng; ahead d'aww factor eight.
It came from the closet by Alchemystudent - I am NOT responsible for any medical conditions that arise from reading two adorable fillyTwi fics in a row.
Wings Near The Fire by DegeTheMighty - Haven't had enough filly cuteness yet? Fine, then. Here's Scootaloo... with parents! (And everyone who insists she's an orphan can go suck sour cider through a changeling's leg-holes.)
Fiddlesticks's Farewell by Slate Sadpony - If I may quote my comment on the story itself: "To put it simply, this was wonderful." She may not have anything resembling formal training in music, but Fiddlesticks is just as good as anypony else. She just doesn't realize it until Octavia shows her.
ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS EXCEPT EUROPA
ATTEMPT NO LANDINGS THERE
Thanks for recommending Making Friends! (Of course, this is My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Who wouldn't recommend making friends?)
And actually, the title, A Little Help from Her Friends makes me think of a silly blog entry/drabble I did a while back, when Magical Mystery Cure was about to air...
