What to expect from me
If you ever thought that crossovers are bad because it uses cliché tactics like bringing two world together through the use of a portal, or thought that there's going to be a boring plot with bland text; because that's what it is expected. Then let me tell you just how wrong you are.
Why do I say you're wrong?
It's because....

Expect anything from my work, because I could surprise you with something you never saw before on this site. I work with crossovers mostly, but I never use a rip in dimensions to bring them together. It just seems like a lazy way to get two worlds together and makes the playing field uneven for one of them. I prefer to bring two franchises together through either:
1. Reshaping the character to fit into the MLP world.
2. Reshaping the MLP world to accommodate for the character.
3. The possibility of the two worlds already coexisting. (Ex. Spyro is a dragon = he can inhabit into the world because they have dragons, Donkey Kong is on an island = he can inhabit into the world if he lives on an island at sea.)
I try to stay true with both franchises whenever I do a crossover, and the fact that one of them is a kid's show, I have to really lower the rating to keep it clean. I don't want the ponies killing things in a gore-ish way because that would go against many, if not all, of the ponies' nature in the show. I try to make it on the brink of dark and mature from time to time with villains, situations, and the brink of saying curse words, but making key points to express humor, details, and emotions is what I usually aim for.
Happy Halloween.

Hmm, ok, ok. Thank you very much, friend. I have saved this in my personal Google docs file. Hopefully this will help me when creating my story.

Before posting a story, put it through some kind of spellcheck program (such as Google Docs), read the story afterwards to fix anything that might feel off, then spellcheck it one more time.
Don't try to keep all of your ideas and lines in your head. If you think it's good, write it down and save it for later.
Have your ending figured out first and work your way back to the beginning. This includes messages that you want to get across and scenarios that you think would be powerful at capturing the reader's attention. It might even help if you write down all the events/actions and then try to organize them in sequences that they occur afterwards.
