To whomever finds this journal:

My name is Matthew Stone. I'm a fiction writer, but what you're about to read is the truth, every word of it. I have tried to remember everything as it happened, and make record here. Even though I experienced these events I still don't know if I'm crazy or not. I leave that for you to decide.

I now know we humans are not alone in the universe, for I have seen something that is both terrifying and beautiful.

Top three reasons to always use hair conditioner:

1. Soothes hair cuticles for shinier-looking hair.
2. Strengthens the hair shaft and protects against breakage.

He had to look down to see her. A pony, a creature no bigger than a goat, stood on his doorstep. Her pale blue fur and ragged, blood-red mane couldn’t have looked more out of place in a town of goats and minotaurs. Kev stared at her, wondering what to do. His father would’ve chased her away with a club and a string of obscenities. His grandfather would’ve eaten her. His great grandfather would’ve eaten her and not gone to prison for it.

A story about one minotaur’s relationship with his society, his family, and his wife.

Twilight's first Winter Wrap Up in Ponyville had a rocky start. Things took a turn for the better when she assumed control over the planning and organization, but after a stressful morning and with an all-nighter in front of her, she was afraid it might all be for naught. Luckily Applejack was there and knew Twilight needed a chance to take a break and recharge.

She needed a visit to the Thinkin' Spot.

Taking a cue from the thoroughly enjoyable Miyajima, this is a storehouse for short tales that don't warrant being separate.

And just recently, my description has run over the allowable character limit. So I've moved the individual story descriptions into a table of contents.

Vinyl is in a tough spot. She's behind on rent, and Octavia is not going to pay for her, again. What makes matters even worse is she's doubled booked herself to play at two popular clubs. She has no way of meeting all her obligations. Not unless there were two of her.

It seemed like a good idea at the time, but what happens when Vinyl actually gets to the mirror pool, and will she find what she think she will, or something very different?
