    Writing Prompt!

    As some of you may know, I used to help moderate an MLP writing prompt blog called Thirty Minute Pony Stories. Though that blog has now shut its doors, Esle-Ynopemos has carried on the grand Thirty Minute Pony Stories tradition here at Fimfiction.net. (And has been doing a bang-up job, too, may I add.) As Esle is but one pony fanficcer, versus an

    Soooooo, How 'Bout That SunLight, Huh?

    Truly, I am a prophet among shippers. I was mocked for my adoration of SunLight after the first EG movie, but everyone's singing a different tune now, aren't they? AREN'T THEY?

    Also, this is the biannual reminder/reassurance that I am not dead. In case that was something you were wondering about.

    Happy almost 2015, y'all. :)

    Love Songs in the Key of FiM: The Complete Album

    Since the album’s finally complete, I thought I’d do a master post for it. One of the most interesting parts of the experience has been that, in reviewing the songs, I think my singing improved more than my guitar-playing did. I hadn’t expected that at all—if anything, I thought the reverse would be true.

    Love Songs in the Key of FiM: Complete!

    Some of you who've known me a while may remember my ongoing project to write and record a love song for every inter-Mane Six ship. Today, after almost two and a half years, I've finally finished. Here are the last three songs that complete the album. (As always, the entire album can be found on

Story Recommendations of the Day: Happy Belated Valentine's Day Edition! · 7:23pm Feb 15th, 2014

Here's some of the stuff I've been reading and enjoying lately! I hope you like it too!

As for what I myself have been writing ... I have been writing lately, actually. I'm about 10,000 words into a multi-chaptered story set in Season 4, and with any luck, I should have that ready to go with the next month or so.

There will be TwiJack, of all things. Madness!

"The Lavender Letter" by Sunchaser

Story synopsis: Twilight has something she needs to tell Princess Celestia--something that means a chance at getting everything she's ever wanted, or of losing everything she's ever had. Something so terrifying that the only way she could say it was in a letter...and so wonderful that she had the courage to send it.

A while back, I'd realized I'd never read any Twilestia, and I found that odd since it's such a huge ship in the fandom. So I asked folks on Tumblr if they had any recommendations, and this story was suggested by at least three or four different people. I can see why. It was utterly delightful! I thought Twilight’s characterization was lovely, and the story did a really nice job of showing Celestia as more than “just” a princess without taking away what and who Celestia is in-show.

"Glimmerhorn Vale" by Abalidoth

Story synopsis: Twilight teaches Trixie a lesson about the history of unicorn magic.

This is more of a vignette than a story proper, but I enjoyed it. It has a languid, mystical feel to it, and I recommend it to anyone who's a fan of Twilight, Trixie, and/or the S.S. Twixie.

"Stardust in My Eyes" by mousapelli

Story synopsis: Twilight Sparkle is all filled up on weird lately, and that's even before she ends up in an alternate world where Applejack is Rainbow Dash's girlfriend instead of hers. Set during and just after "Equestria Girls."

Found this story via Esle Ynopemos's user page. It's a really wonderful, character-driven exploration of the differences Twilight has made in the lives of her friends based on the similarities and differences between Equestria and the human world of Equestria Girls. There is AppleDash and TwiJack, of course, if you're into either of those sorts o' things, plus the absolute tiniest hint of RariPie.

I hope you like 'em! Now that Thirty Minute Pony Stories is over and I'm not moderating for that anymore, I hope to do more frequent story recommendations.
