Lend Me Your World by Superdale33
A synopsis
I know most of what I do lately is signal boosting bronies in distress, though I'm starting to get a little better lately so maybe I'll have more to say soon.
Another June, another time for people to celebrate. But this isn't Pride Month. This is Pride Lifetime, Pride Existence that we're celebrating. Even when the corporations put away the rainbow flags and hollow sentiments, that doesn't mean you should pause your awareness, your support and your experience as well. Make every day colorful, fab and, above all else, full of love.
Hey everyone out there in poneland.
Sorry I haven't checked in for a while. Been busy with a bunch of stuffs. One of which is the awesome Choose Your Own Adventure style fic: Monster's Curse by the talented Jumbled Thought.
So Oroboro has been doing a Sunset Shipping Contest, which I assume everyone is aware of given that this fucker's got like 40 submissions.
Writing can be hard sometimes. It’s solitary, it’s repetitive, it can be exhausting and feel unrewarding. It serves as an outlet for creativity, but it doesn’t yield immediate results. Halfway through a project, you can just sit there staring at the words you’ve written trying to plan out where the story’s going to go, fighting the feeling of being overwhelmed as you think about how much more you have to do. You try not to fret about how these hours upon hours of effort are going to be received
More exciting news — this time, adjacent to Horizon words rather than about them!
Alrighty, folks, we’ve got an almost Not-A-Contest entry here. Pony in question doesn’t have a job, but she is hanging out in Michigan.
PonyDragon brought this one to my attention, and while it doesn’t quite qualify for the Not-a-contest, it’s got a pony on Earth and it’s got a pegasus dealing with flight rules.
Which is something that very much has my interest.
Jinglemas is upon us!
For those of you who don't know, everyone's assigned an author to write a story for. In case you're overwhelmed by all the Jinglemas fics (89 so far!) I'll post the one I was gifted here, and you can just click on it:
It's been mentioned in my State of the Horizon posts, but let's make it official: I'll have a book of short stories available at the Bronycon bookstore!
Okay, okay, I'm one to talk. Bookplayer's "Lost Time" has been on my radar ever since she started publishing it, but I didn't bother reading it until Sunday. I still haven't read all of it—the story completes this Saturday—though I'm slightly ahead of the Fimfiction content.
SIGNAL BOOST! I'm sure a lot of you know or know of Spike writer extraordinaire FamousLastWords. He's kind of a big deal. He's written a bunch of popular stories that were fantastic, such as Heart Invasion 101, Blonde Moments, and
Celefin wrote a new story!
The newfangled FCEMFMW ('enhanced focus-crystal emitted magic field modulation wave', we pros call it FM, because... seriously?) is a brilliant invention meant to 'carry the magic of friendship everywhere'. Or so I'm told. It definitely carries something.
That’s right, AlwaysDressesInStyle has begun a sequel to Business Trip!
And we’re gonna meet all the ponies at the Mareiott!
I probably don’t have to do this one, seeing as how it’s at the top of the feature box, but Raugos mentioned my contest in the story description, so . . .
I launched Harmonic Resonance yesterday, and I’m honestly stunned by how poorly it did. Equestria Girls clopfics usually do well, or so I thought; I truly believed this was a surefire feature. I’m honestly not sure what I did wrong in terms of marketing it, either in the story description or the groups I added it to. If anybody has thoughts, feel free to share them.
