On the day of the Summer Sun Ceremony, the Divine Radiance sent forth to the town of Ponyville her beloved and Faithful Disciple, who with the Blessed Hatchling of Light were to proclaim the word of the Sun and prepare the way for the coming of the Divine Radiance and the miracle of the Rising of the Sun the next morn.

But dark forces lay in wait for the Faithful, and many were the trials she was to endure before her task would be complete.

Rather than plow into planning for NaNoWriMo and fail, I’ve been taking October and doing an experiment where I plot out the whole month of writing ex post facto.  It’s a bit enlightening to see how many times I change topics to keep the writing fresh, so dive in and see how I meander for a month.

This story is a sequel to Equestria : 1940


In September of 1939, Germany and Russia invaded Poland, and the European war became inevitable.  Unlike the Great War where Equestria remained mostly neutral, this time there will be no safe harbor for the small nation of ponies.  While they quietly attempt to withdraw their citizens from the bonfire that is engulfing Europe, they are operating blind.  There is a fair chance their peacetime ally of Germany has already decided Equestria would make a good base for an attack on America, and just as likely the Americans will move to prevent it, resulting in the war arriving on Equestria’s shore regardless of any futile attempt at neutrality between the Great Powers.

Celestia has to do something to stop this disaster, or at least mitigate the destruction to save her little ponies from the ravages of war.  If only there were some way to read Germany’s mail so Equestria could remain one step ahead of them.  With Cadence on a last-ditch diplomatic mission to France and Celestia distracted by other affairs of state, the crushing responsibility falls on the thin shoulders of a young unicorn researcher and a reluctant spy.  Together, they will carry out a daring raid right into the underwater clutches of a German submarine and try to escape without getting caught or killed.

While on the moon, dark forces have begun to stir…

Shining Armor plans on throwing Flurry Heart off the Royal Tower to teach her how to fly.  Princess Cadence has some irrational objections to the idea, but Twilight Sparkle is going to provide important context for this educational experience.

No alicorn children were harmed in the process of making this fic. They had fun, actually.

What if…  Sunset Shimmer had not just wound up at Canterlot High when she passed through the mirror, but instead had found herself in a world of supervillains and heroes, where costumed characters fought it out in the skies of New York and one young woman with no powers in this world did not have a chance to rise to her destiny.  So she decided to fix that problem, only to find her problems had just begun.

Meet Summer Lewis, a young supervillain created by The Consortium and later freed of their control by the Guardians.  Since then, she has passed in and out of the justice system, most recently released on probation only to find keeping on the right side of the law is far more difficult than it seems.

Much like where she came from originally.

On a cold Winter night, Police Chief Miranda Rights tries to arrest a very special visitor. With gifts.

Meant as a gift to Estee for the Tryptych Continuum and in particular Miranda Rights, the beleaguered and frequently overloaded Ponyville Chief of Police in the center of Chaos. (and occasionally host to Discord) Rain or shine, quiet nights or rampaging monsters, the thin blue line of the Ponyville police never breaks. (although at times it frays a bit)

Cover art patched together from several sources including Copper Top the police pony and Jean Sapin for the Christmas tree vector.

Ray Bradbury was a giant among science fiction writers, most remembered for his Mars stories. From Bradbury Landing where the Curiosity rover explored, to the many movies and TV shows that follow his writing, he left his footprints across many worlds. June 5 will be the 9th anniversary of his death, and I thought I’d write a small tribute to his influence on my pony hobby, as well as a farewell to the recent seasons of the show.

This is a tribute to his Martian Chronicles, where Humankind discovers a strange alien race who vanishes unexpectedly. Where have they gone? Ask the children and you will find they never left.

With the Storm King defeated, a large portion of his military equipment was stacked into munitions dumps for later disposal.

Skyswirler saw this as an opportunity to skywrite higher than any other hippogriff had ever gone. After all, the solid rocket boosters used for rocket-assisted airship launches were just sitting there. Nogriff would miss one or two. Dozen.
