Promoting Fallen Angels in Tag-a-long's Book Club group · 2:28am Feb 12th, 2015
If you'd like to see my story added to what is, essentially, the new version of the Twilight's Library group, then please go thumb-up my post here:

I'm not sure they'll allow my self-promotion to remain in their forum due to the controversial nature of it, so here it is, in case they delete it:
Title: Fallen Angels [Mature]
Author: Flutterpony
Genre: Drama/Romance
Description:
Fluttershy's dubious history with sexual distraction and a penchant for the young leaves her feeling at risk and disconnected from the lifestyle she tries to keep and the ponies who supposedly know her. Will she endure emotional isolation, or will the kind pony's lonely desperation drive her to hell and back for a chance at finding happiness with somepony society says she must never pursue?
Join Fluttershy and her friends on a journey of social, psychological, and emotional exploration, a harrowing journey of self discovery and clandestine relationships. You may never feel the same way about illicit love.
Is there anything on the story you are particularly proud of?
Recently fully revised, and looks a lot better for it. The narrative is carefully and lovingly crafted. I'm pleased that, despite the controversial nature of the topics dealt with in the fic, many have admitted that they greatly appreciate the story for the emotional depth and thought provoking angle of the writing.
Who do you feel this story is likely to appeal to?
Anyone interested in sensitive and intelligent discourse on the topic of sexual attraction who can tolerate or appreciate the taboo of an unconventional sexual relationship. There are about 1000 words of explicit content (less than 1%), including an erotic scene, clearly labeled at the appropriate place in case readers wish to skip it--in case they might find themselves triggered or otherwise uncomfortable by that scene. Even without that scene, the story is written to appeal to readers willing to delve into an uncomfortable issue, pedophilia, from the point of view of a minor-attracted individual and her friends and love interest. While some may find the controversy itself appealing, the emotional depth of the characters--their joy and sorrow--is what I feel makes the story enjoyable and have spent countless hours to ensure.
Is there anything else you'd like to say about the story?
I adhere to the typical paragraph style found in printed novels because I feel that's superior when reading lengthy narrative on any device, but especially on phones and tablets where added white space means constant scrolling. If you want to annoy me by saying it would look better with the added white space, then I can't stop you, but I won't be changing the format.
I would like to see it get into this group. It is good enough that it is in my Best of the Best bookshelf.
I would like to see it get in. It's easily one of the best stories I've read. The attention to emotional detail is extremely enticing for me.

At this current time, you have averaged a thumb an hour and sit as Guy with most thumbs, that I see. I suppose you could challenge Pinkie Pie to a creepy extra appendage contest with those eight thumbs of yours. Or flaunt them in front of Lyra, if you're feeling particularly cruel.
2790303 I pity anypony who faces Pinkie in a goof-off, creep-off, or similar challenge. As for Lyra, I'd be kind and share the secret to receiving thumbs (saucy drama in this case).
2789737 Thanks for asking about adding the fic in their recommendations thread as well! It looks like it's allowed as a recommendation, so I probably don't have anything to worry about my self promotion being deleted.
