Time's Almost Up! · 8:26am Jun 27th, 2017
HOwdy, everyone! First and FOremost, as always, Adorable Applejack:
Adorable and accurate!
Dude, there are sooooooo many pics I wanna post for Adorable Applejack, but I can't yet. Stupid spoilers...
Anywho, the time limit for Jake The Army Guy's Horseword Extravaganza is almost up! The deadline is this Friday! So far we've had eleven entries. Some great, some bad, some l00d, but all appreciated. I know of at least four others that said they were entering, which means the final tally will be around 15. That means the winner gets $40 cold hard cash! I've decided that the judging will take place over ten days, so July 10th will be the announcement of the winners.
I'm humbled greatly that so many people have entered. Thank you all. Get your entries in ASAP!
I definitely have no idea if my monstrosity's going to be any good, but it'll certainly be unconventional.
Unless I decide to change the setting to a convention just because.

Not sure whether to applaud you or tell you to slap yourself...
I'll be doing this like a college essay, last minute with lots of alcohol
I feel really annoyed, because I had an idea for this, but then the Army got word that I wanted to utilize some free time, and reminded me I hadn't requested that time off :/... Might still follow Captain's example though, we'll see...

I tried, but it's just not coming together the way I wanted. I'm probably going to miss the deadline.

Aww. Well, I'd still love to see what you wrote
4584772 Oh, you will. Just probably not this month. I've had to chainsaw two big sections out of it because they didn't point in the right direction. If this keeps up I might have to-- (shudder) --make an outline.
(Celestia forbid!)
Not sure if I'll make it in or not, but either way thank you for the contest!
Working on it
For the first time in forever, it looks like I'll be able to get my entry done on time. Win or lose, it's been good to return to proper literary fanfiction. Thanks for putting this on.
Welp, mine's submitted. This is the first time I've put some actual work into a story. I think having a deadline and prompt really made me focus.
Of course, it could still be utter shit, but fingers crossed.
The deadline is Friday just before midnight in some time zone, yes? I might still have a chance to make mine in.
Ahaha, aha!
Cries
IT'S COMPLETE, IT JUST NEEDS TO BE EDITED, IN UNDER EIGHT HOURS, AND I AM GUNNIN' FOR IT-
I've got one on final approach...
Huh. Probably should have posted I was entering in one of these blogs. Oh well! Story is in the folder!
