[THE LIST] One Mare-velous Story · 10:53pm Jul 10th, 2019
This list is not about my favorite stories of all time. That's my favorites list and one of these days I may get around to writing reviews of those fics.
The List is about stand-out, in-progress works that deserve more love, for whatever reason. In addition to general reviews of the fics, these blog posts will tell why I picked a particular story and highlight any features the reader should look out for. Spoilers will be appropriately marked, so you'll be able to read my reviews with confidence that you'll be able to read the story itself and experience the same surprise and delight I did when I first found it.
Also, authors and fans of works will be able to submit stories. Your particular selection may not make it onto the list, and the more information you give me for why you think it should be featured, the more likely I'll be to read and post it. To submit a fiction, simply PM me through FiMFiction's link on my profile.
The list can be found here: Princess Columbia's List
Premise
When girls talk...sometimes the conversation gets weird.
Princess Columbia's Synopsis
There's honestly not much to spoil. This is one of those fics that embodies "slice of life" so much it might as well be cited in the encyclopedia definition for the term.
Why am I highlighting this fic?
There's two (okay...technically three) stories that fall under this specific heading of "EQG random conversation" stories. One is by (the late and lamented) MythrilMoth, the other is this one. Honestly, as much as I enjoy MythrilMoth's work, there's something his lacks that this story has. What that is precisely is something that would largely be unsupported conjecture on my part, but I have an idea what it is. Point is, while Mythril's work is more popular, I honestly think this one is better.
What makes this fic particularly good?
The conversations feel authentic, even as they're flat out off-the-wall. Anyone who's made it all the way through college will have had at least one conversation that goes off the rails like these conversations.
Who would like this fic?
People who like slice-of-life, character-driven stories will like this. (If you thought Nando v. Movies' video "The Ultron Afterparty" was spot on, then you'll like this fic.)
Also, if you liked my previous recommendation of Adagio from State Farm, you'll enjoy this one as well.
Does the author monetize?2
No, be sure to drop them a line to encourage them to become a filthy, filthy capitalist.
- Endorsement on Princess Columbia's List is an endorsement of the selected work of fiction only and is not intended to endorse the creator of the work in any other way.
- Why highlight whether the author monetizes their work? By providing renumeration to the author, you often get the opportunity to request certain works be given higher priority. Additionally, when a person is able to get paid for their passion on their terms, it can often allow them to cut out things that otherwise distract from said passion, like a day job.
