This is a literary masterpiece.

Eh, i'd give it a pompeii out of can opener.

Rock out of 196 if i'm generous.

I don't even have to read this to know they starve to death about 100 words in.

1.5k words of this nonsense.

I’m gonna need a drink to get through this, aren’t I?

Never change, my friends. Never change. Have an upvote.

I personally think monarchy's with cannibalistic Monarch's are much better (I am definitely not that potato cannibalizing Monarch it's fake news)

Why was I the first one to like a story about the one true way of government? We should all support the proper way to live to be health and have full bellies at night!

I am creating my own fanfiction and this message keeps popping up...
"You have very few paragraphs. Make sure your paragraphs are separated by 2 line breaks or are indented" :rainbowhuh: how do I structure it properly this is my first fanfiction and I am wondering do I only indent or use 2 line breaks or do I use both? and which should I use indenting or line breaks and is space or tab the key to use for proper indentation and how many times do I press the preferred key? I just have never voluntarily written a story before its always been a school assignment I always delete from my brain right after submission :twilightblush: this story made me laugh so hard btw....thanks I needed that! :rainbowlaugh: great story just wish it was a bit longer

Hello! I don't write stories myself, but seeing as no-one else has replied to you, I'll try to help you to the best of my ability.

Before you write anything, I recommend reading the "Writing Guide", which you can find under HELP on the tool bar at the top of all Fimfiction pages. Also, read the "BBCode Guide" too, which can also be found under HELP; it explains how to do a lot of the things mentioned in the Writing Guide. And last but not least, if you're still confused and would like more advice, I suggest you ask experienced authors (unlike me). You can find these people in groups specifically made to teach about writing, like the group "School for New Writers".

sooooo what if there is only one speaker in a given paragraph? do I just line break every time my character says something alone?

8527347
Things get complicated.
From what I've seen, there a a few different ways to do this. I don't have any experience in writing creating beautiful works of art, so I can't tell you how to do it right, or if there's even a right way to do it. The best I can do is to point you in the right direction for information, but not give out that information myself. The Writing Guide does touch briefly upon this subject, but nothing specifically about insane stressed characters talking to themselves. I highly recommend asking experienced authors (like in the groups I mentioned in my earlier comment).

8527384
insane? stressed? nope I guess he talks to himself when he's alone kind of as a self comfort thing given the fact that my character is currently single so he's living alone and kind of talks to himself to give the comforting illusion of company and it kind of works...keeps him from going insane I mean we have all had those times where you talk to yourself just to give you someone ANYONE to talk to and also I'm confused....are the rules like the new speaker new paragraph rule set in stone or can they be ignored in place of color coding texts based on who's talking? because I feel like color coding text would be easier and more efficient than starting an entire goddamn paragraph every time somepony opens their mouth because I feel like that rule disrupts the flow of my story quite a bit plus I would have no fucking idea how to structure it aside from how it currently is(6k words and only 12 paragraphs in the first chapter so its wordy but dense as a black hole) goddamn I am so confused

This is glorious to read

8527493
About the 'insane stressed' part, I am referring to a story that left quite an impression on me. Also, I do talk to myself, so I know what it's like (sometimes I sound like I've gone mad).

Anyway, practically all stories follow the 'new speaker, new paragraph' rule. Also, the only story I know of out of the 100 or so I've read that uses color coding based on speaker also follows the rule (it's also a clopfic, not that that has anything to do with this).
Most people don't use it because it's too unwieldy or annoying to have such colors in a sea of black text and a white background. Not to mention somewhat hard to read if one uses bright colors in accordance with the color schemes of ponies like Fluttershy. You can still read it, but some people won't like it. All in all, it's a matter of personal opinion and convenience.

Example of your idea:
"Hi Pinkie! How are you doing?" asked Twilight Sparkle. Pinkie replied, "Oh, just great! I'm having lots and lots and lots of fun today!" "Um, that's good!" said Twilight, "Just wonderful!" "Hey, what are you two doing? Is it something awesome?" said a familiar voice from overhead. Rainbow Dash had flown by, and was now heading towards them.

As you can see, not creating new paragraphs can clutter up a page quickly, and doesn't look very good. The colors are a matter of personal preference, although some would probably prefer them not be there, and others might like it. That aside, most people however won't like the clutter created by not having paragraphs.

By the way, I can review and edit (beta) the story for you if you'd like, though I can make no guarantees on quality, nor with the speed at which I can review.

8527503
Then if it is technically within the rules i will boldly go where nopony has gone before and plus color coding is important actually because you can tell at a glance who is talking instead of being like "wait which character is talking now?" Because if a fanficton has like 6 characters talking in rapid succesion in no particular order things get confusing plus my story has kind of a flow to it along with taking commercial break type transitions to later time of day and that flow is HEAVILY distrupted by the new speaker new paragraph rule like throwing giant boulders into a mountain stream and yes i really need somepony(if you are alright with me using that term) to help review my story also you might like my main character

8527521
I am okay with the term 'somepony', in fact, I just used a variation in my first ever blog post that I just posted today (care to give it a read? Pretty please? It's here). And I can review your story for you.
By the way, did you see the example of your idea I wrote just for you? I edited the comment that you replied to, so if you haven't, check it down below and see how it is.
Also, the story with color coded sentences is down below, but it's NSFW. You might see from the comments that some people liked the color coding, but some didn't. I for one didn't really think much of it.

I read that story and loved it and one thing.....how am i supposed to have you view the story if its not even submitted yet? That is one thing thats confounding me aside from the solidity of the rules whether they are absolute or whether my story would be okay with straight up replacing one or two with my own system that makes it convenient and more compact and plus i also feel like it makes conversations feel a bit more natural like in your example there isnt like this void between lines which would indicate a pause for processing what has been said and what to say. Because i guess thats the flow i was mentioning it i guess just makes it feel a bit more natural when it comes to conversations between multiple characters anyways something about that new speaker rule just...doesnt feel right now that im writing my own story. After all published novels dont have the format this site has i guess i write my fanfics in novel format

Nope, it's just Instant Communism, right there, in your face

Goddammit, I'd hoped Starlight was going to conform fully to Communism.

I mean, I don't care either way, but still.

Upvoted.

8527549
here is the story so far https://www.fimfiction.net/story/390550/a-strange-relationship and the pass to view it is
Equine after all
in reference to the daft punk song human after all lets just hope it works
edit: did the password thing work? because it is capitalized and without the quotation marks of course and if you already knew that...are you enjoying the story so far?

Wait what? Is he a human from Mother Russia or a pony from Stalliongrad?

Memes never die

8528764
But then... why does no-one ever use them after they drop in popularity?

8528767
They become forgotten, it is the job of people like me to keep these memes alive, even if people think they are dead

8528215
Robbie Rotten, or the human in this story is from a Show called Lazy town

Oh man! I almost forgot about Robbie! I made a new story about memes, but I forgot him!

Only Grandayy and Cryanek can return We are Number One back to popularity, but they are busy making Big Shaq memes.

(sigh) HANS, START REVING UP THE GAS CHAMBER!

I understood it was meant to be a parody and thrown in for jokes, but it was such a distorted view of communist ideology that I couldn't get past half
