The Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) is a now-famous tradition from ancient times that has been a huge part of Mexican Culture through the centuries. Like so many things in Mexico, it's influenced strongly by certain aspects of the Aztec people.
It has shaped the way those of us with that heritage look at life and death in many ways, and most importantly on the remembrance of, and honoring the deceased. We traditionally decorate little altars dedicated to the memories of those that passed away… but it's not a somber occasion.
Jinglemas is the annual tradition on Fimfiction to exchange stories around the holidays with users on the site. This single event allows all Fimfiction users to come together and celebrate the reason for the season. Ponies!
Enroll in this Secret-Santa-style gift exchange to request a holiday themed story, to be written secretly by another participant during the month of December. And in turn, you will be tasked with writing someone else's request. Then all the stories will be exchanged at Christmas! Simplicity itself! Thanks to the hard work of the Breezies, everyone will be ensured to get their gift!
You only have until November 24th to Sign up!
Hello everyone, this is a PSA (Public Service Announcement, for those of ESL) to put to rest consistent questions about using AI to 'write' stories and publish them here. This is not intended as a poll or a request for feedback. It is exclusively a clarification on an already-existing rule.
People ask: "Can I, oh great and powerful D, post a story or chapter that I got ChatGPT to write for me?!"
And the answer, my friend, is... No.
Absolutely not. Not in a thousand years!
Because you didn't write it.
It is not your creation. You are NOT the author. In fact, you are the opposite.
There seems to be some confusion when interpreting the following rule:
Don’t Post (Content)

Have you ever found yourself in a situation like this?
And then you magically find yourself in a suspiciously familiar site, except that you're not logged in, and it requires you to do so?
Well. Don't log in. This is a scam, and a cheap one at that.
There've been recent attempts to obtain Fimfiction users’ personal data, like passwords and/or emails through links like the one I'm making fun of above. And a distressing amount of people don't seem to know what phishing attempts are.
If you HAVE entered a site like this and put in your data, make sure to follow these basic steps at least.
As should be obvious from 15 months without a feature, life has taken the Royal Canterlot Library curators in different directions. While there’s still plenty of awesome stories being written in the My Little Pony fandom, we’re no longer actively working to spotlight them, and it’s time to officially draw the project to a close.
Thank you for all of your support, suggestions, and comments over the years. We’re grateful to have been able to share seven years of exemplary stories with you, and give more insight into the minds behind them. In the spirit of the project, please keep reading and recommending fantastic fics to friends—the community is enriched when we all share what we love.
Jinglemas had 114 stories written and exchanged this year!

Okay guys here's something fun presented by Nitro Indigo.
Presented by me, I guess, but I digress.
Swapped Roles Contest
Last year, I (Nitro Indigo) noticed that there was a surprising lack of roleswap fanfics on this site. To fix that, I decided to run a roleswap contest over the summer themed around secrets. While it didn’t get many entries, it nevertheless attracted the attention of some big authors and was the origin of two of my favourite fics. Overall, I think it was a success, so I’ve decided to run another one!
Hope everyone is enjoying the new year.
Some small changes have been made to our rules as well as to the reporting process.
"No attacks directed at individuals or groups due to race, gender, gender identity, religion or sexual identity."
This better clarifies our previously ill-defined hate speech rule and includes groups as well as individual attacks.
"No celebration, glorification or encouragement of real life criminal activity."
This includes past, present and potential future crimes.
There's truly no time like the holidays. What's better than copious amounts of food, quality time with family and friends, hearing the sweet sound of Trans-Siberian Orchestra on repeat, and unmanagble financial stress from our capitalist overlords?
Gift exchanges of course!

A pony for Christmas sure would be a nice gift, cheers to everyone out there
Fluttershy in a box!? Yeah, I'm glad it's Fluttershy and not Dinky or Sweetie Belle because there's only so much cuteness I can take!
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
Merry Christmas to you too Knighty
And to all of you out there who may read this... I hope you all have a Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, knighty!

Merry Christmas, knighty. 🎄🎄🎄
I love the sense of community FimFiction brings to us, even though we not always recognize that. This site has been so important for me (and for many others, I believe) along these years, that I feel truly happy to be here today.
May you all have a great Christmas.
Merry Christmas. Cute Fluttershy.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you too!
Happy Christmas to you, too!

What type of 3D image were you trying implement in that image or maybe a different one, were you trying to insert random char wondering around or the main cast playing on the field??
Year flew by faster than expected. All the same, merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!🎄
Happy hearth's warming, Knighty. Thanks for all your work on the site this year.

Merry Christmas, Knighty! And Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all of you and to FIMFiction!
It is a time to rejoice!
Thanks for working so hard on this site, and please forgive my complaints of a while ago.
The screenshot looks really good, even unfinished.
Merry Christmas to Knighty, his staff, and everyone, and may God go with you all!
Merry christmas! That is very cool, I look forward to seeing it complete if you get time.
Merry Christmas!
That 3-d image looks good. Can't imagine how it would look as a finished product. Very well done when I compare it against the art style of the show.
I'll sing the holiday songs for now, but as soon as Christmas is over, I'll be singing the alternate version of winter wrap-up I like the frigid cold better than the blistering heat, but I still don't care for either.
Thank you for everything you do, knighty.
Except for that one thing. You know the one.
Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas knighty, and Merry Christmas everyone!
Happy holidays peeps!~
Merry Christmas homies.
Happy Hearths Warming, Knighty!

Merry Christmas, man!
You gonna finish it? Because it looks pretty cool so far.
And so, I'm offering this simple phrase
For kids from 1 to 92...
Though it's been said, many times, many ways,
Merry Christmas to you...
