    Cadance of Cloudsdale (so far) now in Spanish!

    Thanks to the generous SPANIARD KIWI, the text of Cadance of Cloudsdale so far is now in Spanish! Mr. Kiwi has done a tremendous amount of work translating many of my stories into Spanish, but this goes above and beyond. If you're curious, you may visit the project so far here at this

    Happy Cadance Day 2024!

    Things feel a bit subdued today, due to the coincidence of Valentine's Day and Ash Wednesday through a quirk of the liturgical calendar. It is somewhat difficult to juxtapose the splash of corporate-encouraged love with the festival that literally exists to remind us of our mortality. The pink of Valentine's washes against the purple of Lent. So I'm in a pensive mood, more so than usual on this

    Ciderfest is a wrap!

    Just got home from PVCF and it was an amazing con experience! The minific-based ARG that circulated around the con the whole weekend was high-concept, and I was worried about engagement, but everyone seemed to really get into searching out the hard-to-find stories concealed around the convention hall (in places as obscure as "the desktop wallpaper on one of the monitors in the video game room,

Things Did Not Go Well After That

"Mm," said Twilight, smiling contentedly and cuddling Princess Luna close. "I wish this night could last forever!"

PFFFFFFAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Well:

Good night, folks!

*cue comments about seeing what happened next*

U SO SILLY

It's a bit long, doncha think?

Still a better story than anything in the featured box.

It's longer than the first draft was. I couldn't sacrifice the story quality.

Resembles the Worlds Shortest Fairy Tale

Once Upon a Time, They Lived Happily Ever After.

Greenthumbed!

There is an wonderful challenge in writing a short story like this. Makes me think of the Earnest Hemingway story (or at least rumoured to be) that goes like this:
"For sale. Baby shoes. Never worn."

See? Short, but very effective.


Edit: Snoopes page for that story
http://www.snopes.com/language/literary/babyshoes.asp

And this is why RULES ARE BAD.

Send it to EqD and see what they say... The pre-readers always claim that they'll make exceptions if a story is good enough.

Hmm, I like it, but maybe try to be a little more concise next time--too much padding in my opinion.

Bloody brilliant. And, just to add to the list, let's not forget the world's shortest horror story.

The last man on Earth sits alone in his room. There's a knock on the door.

B-dump tssh! :pinkiehappy:

Upvoted and tracked :twilightblush:

You are a god damn genius.

BRILLIANT!
-The Doctor

I would fave that. So hard.

Why can't I give thumbs on the blog? No really why!? :rainbowhuh:

I got you beat by a single letter:

The last man on Earth sits alone in his room. There's a LOCK on the door

I'm sad because I can't like it. :pinkiesad2: But I'm glad this exists. :pinkiehappy:

Well played good sir, well played. Also enjoyed the comments immensely as I'd never heard of most, or possibly any, of those before.

:rainbowlaugh: This inspired me so much that I just had to write the sequel:

Dear Princess Celestia,

Sorry!

Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle

428428 Oh they'l probably come out with something like the grammar is all wrong.
QUICK SOMEONE HELP HIM CHECK THE GRAMMAR

428458 "Come in, honey," he said.

World's shortest HiE fic:

Applejack looked at Twilight in shock. "And he just keeled over and died?"

Twilight nodded. "I guess they don't breath nitrogen where he came from."

There should be a thumbs-up button on posts! Very fun.

*claps* Well done!:rainbowlaugh:

Nice. You would think Twilight would know better than to say that.

Then Lyra finds the body
"We can rebuild him, we have the magic"

It just slipped out! :facehoof:

I actually have to second this.

YOU NEVER KNOW BRO

a rousing tale, good sir.
it demands a sequel! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/Luna_lolface.png

Woah woah woah, ease up on the purple prose there, Lovecraft.

Hey, hey, hey now, Tolkien. I know you want to tell a good story and all, but this is just ridiculous!
