That was cute! Could use a couple edits here or there (for example, a typo in the second sentence) but I liked it.
My another short one-shot. I hope you enjoy this one.

(PS: If (by any chance) you fave the story, please remember to rate it up as well but no pushing - whatever you choose to do is fine)

Gah...)
Thanks for pointing it out. Already corrected. (Gosh, I re-read that twice and still left typos.
See Twilight force isn't always the answer, a good librarian doesn't force others to read.
Also next time be careful what you wish for or you might just get it.
1000 years alone on the moon
As soon as I saw this, the first thing I thought of was your first fic. You seem to have very little faith in Twilight's skills as a librarian.
Probably justified. This is why ponies are supposed to get degrees in Library Sciences. Celestia has only herself to blame for the results of her cronyism.

Yes. But, since you insist, here is an excerpt:

Well, I saw Twilight in the series. Her library was usually a mess and even she had troubles finding books there. That's why

P.S.: Love your excerpt!

to."
Okay story, but not quite a comedy, the only real joke was Luna's autobiography.

I've read there should be a comma if it's followed by a "speaking" verb.
1428825
commas should only be used if the dialogue is being broken into pieces:
"I would love to come on the camping trip this weekend," she frowned, "but I have too homework to do."
As long as the character speaking has finished the sentence, it should end in a punctuation mark of some kind.
For example: “Just look at these shelves,” she said angrily. should be “Just look at these shelves!” she said angrily.
P.S. Twilight is said to do quite a few things angrily or in anger, but it should probably be frustration instead. It would fit her better, as anger is usually when something bad has happened to someone either on accident or on purpose. Her expecting or wishing that more ponies would borrow books would lead to frustration. At least that's my opinion.

No! Write a fan-fic! Seriously! Not a long one, but it could be great as a one-shot - "1000 years on the moon - abridged"
That...doesn't really sound like a punishment at all considering that Twilight probably does that to the books she reads anyway.
1429396
But an autobiography detailing Luna's almost certainly dull experience on the moon? Doubt she'd enjoy it too much.
Anyway, this is an awesome little one-shot. And here's essentially what I imagined the end to look like:

Your lack of faith in Twilight's eggheadedness is disturbing. (Not really

This story's use of commas at the end of dialogue is (mostly) correct. If a sentence that would normally end in a period is directly before a closing quotation mark, and the dialogue has a dialogue tag, the period becomes a comma. This is true even if the sentence does not continue after the dialogue tag. However, there are a few cases in the story where periods are erroneously replaced with commas even though there is no dialogue tag, and the use of colons before dialogue is incorrect. Depending on the sentence, those colons should either be periods or commas.
See http://www.youngwritersonline.net/showthread.php?t=20, or the text of any novel you may have lying around.

I have read what you posted, and I agree with Berserker. Just make a 2,000 ish word one shot of excerpts like these, kind of like the Letters from a Disgruntled Friendship Student story.

Okay then, thanks for the information.
1434347
Gonna read this for sure
But... why didn't you upload it here?
1434347
Read it.
Loved it.
"She turned the Princess into a bird?"

This was a fun story. I like the concept, and the execution was pretty good. I thought the relationship between Spike and Twilight was a bit off. Spike's usually really curious whenever Twilight tries to hatch some kind of plan, but he just kind of brushed it off. That's my impression, anyway.
Also, I thought some of your dialogue was a bit awkward. But it was still an enjoyable read.

It could make sense. Luna spending 1000 years on the Moon is canon after all :) But whatever you want to do about this is fine.
Wow, didn't know Twilight had it in her. Making up a law to "make" ponies read one book and she forged Princess Celestia's name on the law. I'm surprised that the Princess didn't get assassinated for Twilight's book law. I don't read hard cover or paperback books since I am not interested in reading those kind of books, but as far as fanfiction like this site, I'll read that but I don't need some unicorn telling me what I should read and not read. Great story, but I'm sure Twilight is going to be a HUGE threat to the Princess's security.

Having this as a separate one-shot would make perfect sense. Simply make the description "Excerpts from Princess Luna's autobiography."
Zangorwarrior read this story on YT.

Publish it. As has been stated already, if you call it "Selected Excerpts from Princess Luna's Autobiography of Her Time on the Moon" or something, I think it would go over pretty well here. At the very least, it won't be downvote bombed because of horrific grammar or a horrible twist - it's exactly what the title says.
Do it, filly. The power of
compels you!
Actually, Celestia should've sent Twilight to a reputable psychologist. Between this, Lesson Zero, and attempting to stop time, it's clear that Twilight has issues.

Don't forget her preparation for the 'test' in the first episode of Season 3
1783742 Well that time her fear was justified, Celestia pulled a "pop quiz" of sorts on her. Imagine if you're teacher decided to give you a surprise test with no heads up about what it was about.
I'm more surprised she DIDN'T freak out when she lost the magic duel and Trixie banished her from town, you'd think that would have caused her to snap since in her mind she was defeated at the thing she does best. Guess she's learned not to make a mountain out of a molehole for no reason.
1784562
I'm gonna believe we will see more of 'going-insane' Twilight
1787009 Like maybe in the Season Finale which is rumored to be "Goodbye Ponyvillie". I could imagine her freaking out over some evil that appears to be unstopable, or possibly in the rumored DVD movie involving her becoming an alicorn.

Finally! Instant upvote and fav!
I read the Autobiography before this and found the end funnier.
Harsh but fair.
Sorry But I don't understand the joke... Twilight love books, if she could, she could even make a summary of a dictionary, why the autobiography of Luna could be that bad?
5362852
because.. well...
I actually don't know. Maybe because it's Nightmare Moon's biography, so it might be similar to Sombra and his jabberings?

Maybe, but we are talking of Twilight bookworm Sparkle... For her any book is interesting.
