I just started reading this, and I'll (hopefully) finish later today.

Many years ago, when I was a young colt about your age, my grandfather died.

Well that escalated quickly!

Well, the story was set on the time his grandfather died, so yeah, it would.

But what did you think of it so far. Was it as good as you were hoping it would?

It's honestly a bit early to say, but it is good as far as I've read, yes.

So I just finished, and it was pretty good. It wasn't exactly my kind of fic, but it was really well written! I only spotted a few errors.

There in both black and white photos was a thin old earth pony stallion with ice cream cone cutie mark.

Did you mean "with an ice cream cone cutie mark"?

In one photo he was dressed as an ice cream pony at an ice cream stand, in the other he was dressed in a suit. Though the photo was black and white, I could tell it was the same stallion in suit that he saw, and the suit he was wearing in the photo was the same one.

Shouldn't this be closer to something along the lines of "In one photo, he was dressed as an ice cream pony at an ice cream stand; in the other, he was dressed in a suit. Though the photo was black and white, I could tell it was the same stallion in suit that I saw, and the suit he was wearing in the photo was the same one"?

Thanks for spotting those errors. It's amazing how an error or 2 can slip right past you with out even noticing. Thanks for pointing them out, and I've just fixed them. Though in the second error, I didn't know it was one. I guess I might need to work on my grammar a little. I guess I can add that to the list of things to remember when writing.

Thank you for your positive feedback on my story. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I should even tell you that I've got 3 other stories too.
1. A Pop Star, a Princess, and a Prisoner
2. Burning's Ass for Money
3. Twilight’s First Gift

You could check those out too, if you'd like.

I do plan to read Twilight's First Gift eventually. It should be stated that I write on here too, and I generally write more than I read.

Alright, time to review- First Person! Burn it! Burn it to the fucking ground!

...Anyway, here's my actual review.
The story is that of a grandfather telling his grandson about an old coin he has framed on his wall. That's kind of it. The titular suited stallion being twice described as fin, which is either meant to be thin or fine I can't really be sure which. Aside from that the story is short and completely inoffensive.
I kinda have no actual reaction to it, so flip a coin if you're bored.

Hey.
Thank you for reviewing it. And thank you for making a mistake catch to my attention. Fin is supposed to be "thin", like the opposite of fat. I just correct it. I'll have a look at the other reviews.
