Well, I'm 17 (for now) and I absolutely love writing. Writing is one of my favourite pastimes so I'm glad that I came here!

    Quick break

    I'm taking a bit of a break from My Little Pony vs..... (don't worry, it's just a short hiatus). In the mean time I have got a little bit of a one-shot that I have, based on the idea of a Socratic dialogue. I hope you like that one.

    Time to type it up

    So the Mane Six vs the Weeping Angels is finished and it's the longest chapter I have ever done for anything ever. Now I just need to type it up for you guys and it should be online fairly soon. I'm probably going to take a little bit of a break from writing MLP vs then, because it does take a lot of time and effort to get it right. So if you want, think of this as the MLP vs season one finale.

    The biggest fight since Goku vs Superman is now underway

    So, for any of my loyal subje- I mean fans who are interested, the biggest round I have ever written for MLP vs is currently in the planning stages. Brace yourselves everyone, and make sure the lights are on when you read it, because I am drafting in the most terrifying creature that British television has ever created. No, not Alexandra Burke (but she's pretty fucking terrifying). Nope, it's the

    A bit of writers block

    I have trouble with a bit of writers block surrounding my MLP vs.... story. Writing fights for Fluttershy was always going to be difficult, but trying to put her in a situation where she will kill other creatures is very difficult. I will continue and I hope to get the chapter up within the week, but I apologise for the late chapter.

Equestria Daily: WHO THE BUCK ARE YOUR PRE-READERS!!!!??? · 3:10pm Jul 19th, 2012

I recently submitted my story An Old Timers Tale to Equestria Daily and it was rejected. Now, I wouldn't have minded if they had legitimate reasons (my spelling and grammar were incorrect, etc.) but this is a list of some of the things that they came up with:

70 Years.
We don't like numbers, you have to write the words. Seventy Years

My Sister.
Needs a paragraph break

This magnificent tomb
"This" can't be used in narration
They forget that the whole story is being told through Appleblooms eyes, her descriptions are all from memory. There is no omniscient narrator, just Applebloom. GAH!

Anyway, that is the last time I ever try to put anything on Equestria Daily. For a while at least.

I notice that you conveniently left out the grammatical errors that were pointed out.

You... do know that the numbers being spelled out is a standard rule of English in writing, yes? no matter whom the story is being told through?

Wow, we're right. We're completely incompetent, and a bit on the ugly side to boot. I'll get on the phone with Seth right now to make sure we give your story a front-page spotlight all day tomorrow. Your apology gift basket and complimentary Vietnamese hooker are in the mail.

What do you expect when you re-submit a 30k piece twelve hours after its initial rejection? I just looked at your initial submission reply, and damn, this thing needed some work. You didn't do the work. What exactly are you upset about?

I apologise. I was upset about my fic getting rejected and in the heat of the moment wrote this. I truly am sorry and in general have the utmost respect for the EqD pre-readers. I was very very wrong and I want everyone to know that. I am so sorry about this, please forgive me.:fluttershysad:
