A new project I'm helping with has launched! (Royal Canterlot Library) · 7:06pm Oct 11th, 2013
As some of you may have heard, the Pony Fiction Vault is ceasing operations. As someone who's rather concerned with promoting good quality fanfiction in pone, I was distressed by this, but then Benman contacted me about a project called the Royal Canterlot Library that hopes to serve as a follow-up to the Vault by continuing to interview authors and feature some of the best stories in the fandom. We have our main site and a FiMFiction group all set up, and our first feature, Princess Celestia Hates Tea, is scheduled to go up later today. We've got a lot of great stories and interesting interviews lined up, so I hope y'all enjoy.
Also, if you have recommendations for the group to read, you can hurl 'em at me in the comments or on the FiMFic group's forum thread. There are too many horse words for the five of us to possibly find all the good ones, so all the help we can get is appreciated. (I swear, the only fanfic I have time to read anymore is the stuff I pre-read for EqD or recommendations for the RCL.)
(Please note: we generally only want Complete stories.)
UPDATE: Our first feature is up!
DO Austraeoh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S BUCKING FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hereby approve totally of your first inductee.
I propose a toast. "To success!" Raise your teacups high, fellow pony fiction readers, and drink deep from the delicious fount of quality.
Well, obviously do the classics, like Attack on Fort Book, or Fallout: Equestria.

Fallout: Equestria has already been in the Pony Fiction Vault, and we're trying to avoid anything that RBDash47 posted there, at least for the time being.
Never heard of Attack on Fort Book, though. Got a link?

Only just over a thousand words?
I like short stories, but flash fiction rarely sits well with me.
Have you guys talked to Knighty about Library interviews being posted to the site blog?

We've tried. Repeatedly. But he doesn't check his Skype or his PMs. Eventually, we hope this will happen.
