The Magic of MLP Fanfiction
Enter the wonderful world of My Little Pony fan fiction, as SoCal's top authors discuss the art of reading, writing, editing, critiquing, promoting, and publishing stories on FimFiction, Equestria Daily, and beyond! Featuring Pen Stroke, Bradel, AugieDog, Chelis,and Super Trampoline.
This is formatted for an hour-long panel. Note that we are flexible in both amount of time available and content presented. While we would love an hour and a half panel, we can also compress this to shorter than an hour if need be. And if you would like us to focus on particular topics (for example, comedy, what to do when you're a new author, etc.), we will happily do so!

Pen Stroke is the author of Past Sins and by far the most followed person on Fimfiction. He always seems to wear plaid shirts.
Bradel is one of 6 curators for the Royal Canterlot Library, the most prestigious and selective MLP Fanfiction archive and interview team.
AugieDog is a professional published author, Write Off extraordinaire (as Baal Bunny), and also has a radio show on local KUCI 88.9
Super Trampoline is a prolific writer of random comedy and bizarre shipping (Photo Finish and Crackle, for example), as well as occasional highly lauded other stuff. He also leads the SoCal Ponytones, one of the first and largest Brony Choirs.
Chelis claims to be Sunset Shimmer's #1 fan (he's interviewed Rebecca Shoichet!) and writes extensively about Equestria Girls. He also is an admin and reporter for the second largest MLP news website.

3308384 these are panel applications for EQLA, not what's already happened. I've been procrastinating on them for months. Just like I've been procrastinating on reading your story, because I have serious problems.

Well, I hope you record this panel in some way. I'd love to see it! (Or hear it!)
I'm glad I did this because the second panel application didn't go through!
