Sunset Shimmer made the mistake of playing with things not even Celestia could truly understand. Upon moving through the mirror and into another world - she has compromised the very existence of her human doppelganger, who she has replaced entirely. Living a life far different, but also eerily familiar - Sunset is haunted by her own personal demons and seeks redemption one day at a time. This proves difficult, when she begins to have strange visions of mythical beings that dwell between the two realms, preying on those that wish to travel between the different planes. Pursued by phantom riders in her dreams and morally pummeled by the struggles of troubled teenhood - Sunset is about to discover something that will forever change the fate of two Equestrias.

Story itself lost my interest fairly quickly with its long rambling paragraphs and wall of text feel, but that might just be me. The only constructive thing I have to offer is to point out that for some reason, your entire description is bolded, and you should really fix that.

Hmmm, really seems like I need to completely revamp my writing style. Problem is, I've been writing like this for years and I feel like I try to over explain things a lot due to the fact English is not my first, but rather my fourth language. Thank you for the honest input however.

And yeah, I am entirely unsure how the description was bolded. Fixed.

6246678 Well, from what I picked up on a quick skim, your writing is fairly solid from a grammatical standpoint, and it looks like you're massively into worldbuilding, which is all well and good. The main problem you have is that you need to break your paragraphs down into smaller chunks and scale back on the infodumps and exposition--reveal information to the reader at a slow and steady rate rather than piling giant blocks of unbroken paragraphs full of information on the reader one right after the other. That would be my one piece of advice for you.

Many thanks. I will definitely take this to heart and in future stories/chapters I will try to orchestrate how I actually lay down the information a lot better... And yes, world building is something I like the most - so I will probably focus more on gradual explanation of such rather than just dumping a bunch of self-made lore and fluff at once.

Luckily, this just inspires me to write more and experiment with how to improve further, so thanks for the input yet again!

The next chapter is already unfortunately in a very similar style with a lot of lore being thrown together at once
But I assure, after that - I'll try to administer the advice given

Was "dead princesses" supposed to be the equivalent to "dead kennedys?"

Yes, exactly

I was originally going to use "Dead Sombras" but decided not to for reason to come...

"Dead princesses" sounds better in my opinion.

I agree, I am just glad I was able to slip in a reference to one of my favourite bands at all and pass it off well

This is really good ,I love how even in the human world celestia is a troll
