Another beautiful story yet again, 24th. Best of luck in the EFNW Scribblefest competition.
This made me tear up....so friggin' beautiful!
Great, great story. Not enough words.
That was a great and emotional short story. Good luck with the competition!
Less than 5000 words and you've made me smile
, laugh 
, cry 
, "aww" 
and smile 
again. Absolutely wonderful, and I expected no less from the amazing 24.
What she said.
Seriously, great emotions in little text. A comprehendable character, a touching story - and short enough to be read in a single lunch break. Good job, 24th
These are my notes from round one of the judging. Nothing's decided yet, but best of luck in the finals!

Thanks, sounds like you enjoyed it!
Though I am curious as to what makes you think it pushes against the boundaries of the mature limit. Maybe it's because I'm used to writing darker things that actually would fit under the mature rating, but I didn't think this was close to those limits.
Thanks for all the time and effort you and the other judges are putting into the contest!
8082479 Years sixteen and eighteen, at least, lightly touch on some very sexual themes, what with virginity lost and affairs and the like. Nothing that strikes me as out of place or detrimental to the story, but EFNW has always tried to stick to a very family- and kid-friendly set of guidelines. Honestly, none of the judges felt that Sierra crossed the line, and I would argue that this story needs those passages. You don't shy away from the full picture here, and you tackle heavy themes with brutal honesty. Even if Sierra doesn't win, a second judge referred to you as an 'author to watch' because you may 'conceive a masterpiece in the near future,' and a third judge said 'Oh God the feels SO many feels.'
A really good read, and I have to applaud the strict use of "one paragraph per year" structure. It's hard to do something like that and make it work, but this does. Very touching and real throughout the story too. I could totally see this being some episode of a spin-off MLP for an older teen/YA audience.
This is up there with some of my favorite fics of all time. It set the standard for any other year-by-paragraph story I come across. It's simple. To the point. I don't recall grammar errors. Thought provoking. dramatic. Powerful.
damn good read, especially when I'm work and am feeling particularly lazy.
This was a really good story, with an excellent balance of emotions through the years.
