And the timeline's almost hammered down. · 4:29am Jan 10th, 2018
I'm happy to say that I've almost got the timeline for the Quiververse finished...at least, up until the events of A Mad Pony in a Box. I've got rough thoughts in mind for beyond that, but I'll be hammering those down as I get to those particular stories. The only things left to be incorporated into it from what's been established so far are some of the expanded universe materials.
For those not in the know or who might've forgotten, this timeline incorporates animated material (the first three seasons of the series, most of Season Four, the first Equestria Girls film, the Rainbow Rocks prequel shorts and some of the Summertime Shorts), the comics, and various books published by Little, Brown and Company, as well as stuff that I've written myself. I'm posting this in the hopes that someone out there will be able to help me pin down what's left to be pinned down.
Still pending for getting nailed down in the timeline are stories that, to me at least, feel like they belong in the rough time frame of after the end of Season Three, but before the end of Season Four. That consists of two G. M. Berrow books - the ones focusing on Applejack and Fluttershy - as well as the first nine issues for IDW's "Friends Forever" series, barring the second issue (I already mentioned the events from it in The Last of the Elements). Pinning some of those down will have to wait until I've found the time to sit down and reread the comics in question, which given my capacity for procrastination might take a while. The last one in that grouping's gonna be particularly troublesome, considering the featured characters (Granny Smith and the Flim-Flam Brothers). We'll see how things go, however.
Also, a small announcement - I plan on releasing another Q&A chapter for the Bonus Reel in November. Hopefully, I'll have a few more stories up for everyone to read (and prompt questions for) by that point, though a few have come up already. Still, letting folks know in the meantime.
Good on you!
Figuring out the course of events is important, and it's been something that I've struggled with in planning my own big fanfic on this site XD Glad it seems to be coming along for you.

I just wish that it was coming a little easier. Still, once I knuckle down and get to it, it'll get sorted out.
