FUN FACT: Before 2010, when My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic first aired, there was no such thing as the Sun or the Moon. Without the sunlight necessary for photosynthesis, there were no plants and no farms. We humans survived on a diet of rocks, and sometimes resorted to cannibalism when we got bored.
Well, this is a bit of a turn-up for the book. Lauren Faust, who I don't think has been to a pony convention since 2012, is a last-minute addition to the already fantastic line-up of guests at EQLA in just over a week's time. It'll be fascinating to see what her programme is.
Also: EQLA weekend ticket = £38. BUCK weekend ticket = £100. And even at that price, BUCK doesn't make a profit. UK hire/venue/etc costs are completely idiotic. Now let me go and cry into my cider for a bit.
So this is why my writing panel was cancelled...
A lot of us have been looking for something to fill the pony void since the show ended almost a year ago.
Today, I discovered the first season of Lauren Faust's 2019 Netflix series, DC Superhero Girls (not to be confused with her DC shorts from 2014).
I have to say, it feels a lot like pony.
Lauren Faust receiving an awesome motivational poster (Obama "Hope" poster meme) at the summer 2012 BroNYcon. Con report in four parts, first post is here: https://ponyville-trot.dreamwidth.org/95395.html , click the small blue triangle 'arrow' pointing right to go easily to the next part (posted the next day). That blue navigation arrow is at the bottom.
I made this:
Spike, being the good little slave that he is, was busy as usual pointless reshelving books for Twilight Sparkle. As he put Gadding with Ghouls beside Travels with Trolls on the dedicated Goldenrod Clopheart shelf, Spike had a sudden burst of intelligence and wondered just why he was doing all of this.
I may or may not expand dong on this in the future. The future is not now.
Previous Highlight: Friendship is Magic: The Gathering
Highlights from BronyCon 2019: STAMPEDE!
In which son_of_heaven176 tries—and fails—to get Lauren Faust’s autograph.
So I've tried to submit my latest fanfic, Medusa, onto the Equestria Daily, because of one reason:
It's a revival of Lauren Faust's scrapped project from Sony Pictures Animation! It deserved to be known for everyone worldwide! Including Lauren Faust herself!
I was honoured to interview creator of MLP:FIM Lauren Faust at BronyCon 2019. Watch for her fav memories of MLP, original plans for the show, experiences in the brony fandom, what John DeLancie originally called Fluttershy & her new show Superhero Girls!
EDIT: WOOT! (But you can keep throwing money at them.)
With just 8 6 hours left, we're less than 20k less than 10k! from Them's Fightin' Herds final stretch goal: a new, seventh character's stage and storyline!
I don’t often speak about my encounter with Laurent Faust.
It was something bizarre… A few close friends know about it, but even they only have the outline. One would think that being in possession of such rare ‘yakety-yakyakistan’ as hers would have made me a more well-known figure in ponylit--never mind the extended ponywebs. So why, for the sake of my career, hold anything back?
That's right... it may just happen!
Okay, I realize not all of you may know what I'm referring to. Well, allow me to explain. Short version: Turing Test is (hopefully) going to be in a video game.
A/N: First and foremost, happy Easter! I hope that all of you, whatever your persuasion, are finding hope in this season of growth and rebirth.
As for today’s Highlight, I am going out of order again, but I hope that this Highlight is enjoyable. Unless something else rearranges my plans, “Vendor Hall Completion and Lip Sync Battle” will be the next Highlight to go up.
Browsing through Lauren Faust's Deviantart gallery of MLP Pitch Bible sketches, found out that back when Pinkie Pie was going to be a pegasus, she was going to fly everywhere upside-down.
