Once upon a time, a very unusual mare existed, with an unusual power. No one else from this universe has ever displayed the abilities that she had.

This is the story of Minuette.

Minuette alicorn or spirit of time!

...

Is this supposed to be legit? As in, are you actually trying to write a biography for Minuette, dry format and all? Because if that's your intention, well, I'm not sure what to think of it. :rainbowderp:

On the one hand, I do give props to you for breaking new ground that I haven't seen on this site before. That does take a lot of guts. Not only that, but this does read like something out of an actual biography, or at least a history textbook. However, by successfully replicating the format of a biography, you may have alienated people who find that kind of stuff dull and uninteresting. Especially since biographies are exempt from the "Show, Don't Tell" rule that most stories have. :unsuresweetie:

So while I applaud you for dabbling in genres and formats other authors haven't, there might be a reason why other authors haven't dabbled in those genres. This is not to say that biographies are inherently boring, or that your story is bad by any means. I too have a headcanon where Minuette's special talent involves space-time manipulation. But the dry format you decided to use for this piece is an acquired taste that I don't think many readers on this site have. That's just my take on it. :duck:

6251698 Thank you for your insightful comments. I decided to write it as a bio because otherwise the story would wind up becoming too long - and long stories, for me at any rate, take a long time to write.
