At the very beginning of this year, I could finally join the Flashfic 150 contests.
This is a simple submission to collect all of my flashfic entries in one place and to make them accessible to a bigger audience.

Flashfics are tiny stories that consist of not more than 150 words. They are very different from what you're usually reading, but it is possible to tell a story with such a small amount of words, so maybe you'll still find something that entertains you here.

The stories here can be of any genre and with any ponies/creatures, and many of them will include background ponies, because everypony is important. OC stories, however, happen almost never here.
Because of the short length of flashfics, I will not add descriptions for the individual stories, but the title of each story and the prompt it was written for should give you a rough idea what the stories are about.

Important: Each of the stories shows a slightly incorrect wordcount. This is because of an invisible dot that I inserted with the opacity command at the top of each flashfic to generate more space between the text and the title. You can always check that each flashfic is not more than 150 words long by using Wordcounter.net.

Could’ve picked a better cover photo, one that had nothing to do with the last season.

Everypony (and creature) was coming together to save Equestria. It's the perfect cover picture for a flashfic anthology titled "Everypony is important".

It's like Super Smash Brothers ultimate everyone is here

Exactly! This was a grand moment in the history of Equestria! :heart:

How are you able to keep each chapter exactly 150 words long for so long?

Like, a secret technique? There is none. I write what the prompts inspire me to and then cut words and shorten or simplify sentences until it fits the allowed wordcount. Usually, the first draft is already very close to 150 words and doesn't need much work anymore. I just cut back on words where it's needed and that's really all there is to it for me.

just surprised you updated this...and what happened to Derpy here

Why surprised? I update the anthology every month.
.

and what happened to Derpy here

Derpy tried to smash in a store window with a brickstone, out of grief and anger over something that happened to her. This moment takes place after she learned about her eye condition and that she can't be a great race flier anymore because of that. Discord catches her in that moment and he shows Derpy alternate versions of herself that he pulled from other universes who all either suffer from a bad fate or have made morally questionable decisions in their lives, to teach her a lesson by demonstrating her what she might become if she chooses the path of crime.
