Heh, patented ponies ..... But this bit about real-world horse/pony as inspiration for G1 ponies seems to be supported by this article too:
So, just in case you hadn't heard, the EU will be voting on the controversial and potentially dangerous Article 13 on 12 September. In case you don't remember from the last time this was an issue, this would require platforms to screen and remove copyrighted material from their pages. As you might guess, this would be an absolute travesty for fan culture at large. Worse still, it could very easily turn into a machine for censoring or suppressing speech on the Internet. So please, if you're in
Hi Everypony,
Just found this cool little article, stumbled onto it on Facebook. Made for interesting and informative reading, so I thought i'd share it with any and all other aspiring writers out there.
Enjoy!
Article 13 is passed in the EU. To help the people who needs it, we MUST post a crap ton of memes in the comment section for those in Europe. Please spread awareness to all those who needs them. Thank you.
I'm not sure that we can do anything to fight this in eroupe, but it's still important to note how people's rights to make creative things. article 13 recently passed in eroupe, and is about to go into affect, if it does it will serioulsy damage our ability to create pretty much anything. Even something as simple as a meme or a fan song. This will come over here and affect us in the states if it doesn't stop soon. So please, spread the word and help us keep our nerdy, fandom stuff. Help us keep
So, some good news today: The EU copyright law I have been so hard on against failed to pass into law yesterday.
On September 12, the EU is going to bring back Article 13 (As well as Article 11 and the rest of the EU Copyright Directive) into negotiations.

WE DID IT ...For now
Emotional Resonance vs Emotional Manipulation [Part Two]
To anyone who reads or writes fanfiction, I really think this is important to read. It's an article written by Seanan McGuire, for those who don't know her name she's an award-winning author, most notably of the October Daye series, which is the lady's answer to Harry Dresden (mother forgive me because I do love the series, but Dresden Files is a little chauvinist and not always on purpose) among dozens of other books.
(So, I'm going to talk about Article 13 and shit again. If you want to skip all the political talk and the jargon about what A13 threatens to do and how it might affect us - even outside the EU - hit Ctrl-F and search for "***" without quotations)
It's been a good ride, y'all. But today, Articles 11 and 13 of the EU Copyright Directive passed with no amendments. We're likely about to see a massive purge of user-generated content if it even has a 'risk' of violating copyright due to the implementation of bots and algorithms meant to delete anything that 'could possibly' violate copyright in an attempt to keep the now-liable web platforms that host our content safe from lawsuits.
List your top ten favorite books, the ones you can name off the fingers of one hand, and I'll wager they all have a memorable hero.
Regardless of the genre, your characters should act like genuine people who make errors, regret them, and develop emotionally or spiritually over the novel. Failure is evident.
Although some accomplished authors make it seem simple, this is a talent that requires practice.
