Bradel won a Writeoff medal, but I won the REAL competition ... · 9:45am Oct 16th, 2015
... the rap battle.
... the rap battle.
Part of the process, of course, is starting.
If you have a wacky story, you should make sure to submit it either tonight or tomorrow morning (sooner rather than later if it's your first on the site), so that we can flood the front page in the morning! I hope to see some serious lulz when I log on tomorrow!
Hey, everyone. If you’ve read any of my posts over the last few months, you’ll know my mother recently passed away from cancer. One of her final requests was that she be buried in her hometown, so I am journeying with my father and brother up north to commit her ashes to the earth. I still haven’t finalized the eulogy I want to give at the funeral, which is part of the reason I’m typing all of this. I needed some distance
Hey everypony!
Just wanted to remind y'all that the deadline for Nightmare Night in April submissions is next weekend. Even if you haven't started, you've still got plenty of time to sit down and write something, so don't delay!
For those who missed it, Crackfic Storm 2024, the yearly writing event where we write stupid stories for April 1st, is underway.
This be the last year I run this, so be sure to write something if you want to get in on it! You have a little under a week to get a story written in time to submit on March 31st!!
It's time for two new stories and some other changes!
One Head of Cattle (E, Dark, Slice of Life)
The competition has finally come to its conclusion. The final results are in!
In third place was Baal Bunny's charming mouse world tale, To Drive the Cold Winter Away.
I have a short story in the current FiM Writeoff, and I will probably publish it.
Soonest would be Monday morning, but I have exams to grade before Wednesday and a lot of changes to make in the fic, so... we'll see.
If only the grades were actually this good.
My goodness do I have a ton of news!
Look at this prime bughusband material! Resist the snuggles? You cannot.
First off, I found Thorax on Fimfiction and hunted him down:
Strategically-placed mantlerbles! These lips have already seen a hundred kisses.
Meant to post this a few days ago, but there's still plenty of time on this.
It's April, which means it's time for the annual Horror Write-Off I run every year, Nightmare Night in April!
The event is simple: in order to encourage more horror writing, I hold a write-off event in which anyone can submit a Horror Story, to be compiled by April 30th, the opposite day of the year from Halloween!
It's March again, and every year, in the leadup to April 1st, I try to organize an effort to get stupid and insane stories on the front page for April Fools Day: Operation: Crackfic-Storm!.
Oh wow, with everything that's been going on, I almost forgot about this!

Your eyes do not deceive you!
Two announcements for folks today!
First off, you all might have noticed I posted a new story earlier today:
Recurring Nightmare
by Titanium Dragon
Drama
2,174 words
So, a bit of background here.
Are these stories sequels? Spiritual sequels? No. But maybe they're like mirror images of each other. They each take an idea and run with it in different directions.

Hey friends! How's everyone doing this spooky afternoon? I don't have too much to talk about today, but I figured I may as well give you guys an update as to what's going on.
Hey guys! New story up tonight! This one is called Home, Sweet Home, and it's dedicated to all the underappreciated writers out there who work so hard, but still feel like they're not improving, or that they'll never be noticed. I know for a fact that I feel like that all the damn time, so writing this was definitely very personally cathartic. You can find it on the sidebar, or down here:
I wanted to write up a “Day 2” and “Day 3” blog post, but, frankly, I was too tired to do either. But I took notes, so CLEARLY THIS IS TOTALLY CROMULENT.
Day 2 started with me going to Taco Bell for breakfast and getting some box thing for $5. It was actually fairly decent – I don’t get why people complain about Taco Bell. Sure, it only has like five ingredients, but they’re decent ones.
Over the past few days, I've been wondering why I was getting a major uptick in new views/likes on the extremely random Dobbinfic You Are What You Wheat. "Did Present Perfect's review two weeks ago generate a bunch of secondary buzz?" I asked myself. "Or did Equestria's pettiest thief pull off a meta-heist and steal attention the way he
