So I got a request to extend my contest a few days. I'm inclined to grant it, as the author asked nicely and the story in question is quite extensive. In other words, it's not "laziness" but rather simple length that is keeping it from being done. Unless there is a huge outcry, I'm going to extend it until the end of the month (July 31, 11:59pm, Central US Time). That gives him an extra weekend without delaying stuff too much.

So, unless I get a crap ton of hate mail, July 31st it is.

I have more than half of TAW's followers :O.

Sorry for the atrocious fics I've posting lately. I'll try to get this side project I'm working on wrapped up so I can finish Who We Are. I've got a few notes on the List sequel thing too. But finding time to write stuff where I care about quality is kinda hard right now.

Seriously, thank you guys. 700 is like twice what I'd thought I'd ever get

Not a prereader, but they still talk to me. Have a stats page one of them set up. If you care about fic numbers.

Well, I finally did it. Since I've been useless to them for the past six weeks or so, I've taken myself off of the pre-reader list. I was on for a little over a year, with my first reviews being on July 2. I'm gonna miss it, but I no longer have time nor energy to review fanfiction for strangers. Now off to feed babies and sleep.

So, I'm pretty much of the opinion that [human] and [au] are there to let me know to laugh and move on with my life.

Have some fics that break the mold. I bet you've already read them though, it's not like I have a ton of time to find hidden gems these days.

So there were some questions I think I'll answer.

>Does it have to be one couple only?
No. You can ship others too. Hell, if you can figure out a good angle on polyamory that includes one of the pairs, a triple is also fine. Bonus if all three legs are rare ships: Pinkie, Rarity, Fluttershy? Man, that would take a lot of work to do.

So I find myself in possession of a humble bundle key. Now, I love playing games and stuff, but I still haven't finished Portal 2. Take note: this is what having kids does to you. So I figure I may as well try to get something I can enjoy out of it while hopefully getting someone else fired up, so I'm having a contest!

What kind of contest? A fic writing contest.

"But kits! That's so unoriginal!"
