• Story Updates - August 5th, Plus Comment Derp



    Story updates! We have a bunch today. 

    I'd also like to point this out here since it primarily effects fanfics,  there was a bit of a derp in comments yesterday where everything on the site was migrated over to Intense Debate.   I'm working on fixing this now, though it could be a while.  Luckily all of them still seem to be in-tact, they are just hidden.  Hopefully we can restore those on older posts that didn't have Intense Debate soon. 

    Anyway, go read stuff!


    Story: Only Human: A Lyra Heartstrings Production (Update Part 9!)


    [Comedy][Shipping][Slice of Life] "This is a fun, upbeat story that takes a tired joke in the fandom and makes it actually work. It's a real joy to see the author's take on Equestria and these characters; anyone who has ever dealt with trying to get their creative works noticed will really connect with Lyra in this story. I recommend this to anyone who likes unobtrusive shipping and the sort of humor that comes from everyday life and its occasional zaniness." -Pre-reader who likes sky pirates

    Author: Smoking Gun
    Description: Lyra makes a big splash in Equestria when she gets her new animated series for children on the world's No.1 network. The show in question: Only Human, which centers around a group of these mythical creatures called 'humans', straight from Lyra's imagination, who become friends as they overcome life's obstacles together.

    With the help of her executive producer, Bon Bon, Lyra starts to make an unprecedented impact in Equestria. Making friends, enemies and... other.

    Can Lyra make it in the world of television? Will the Equestria take to these new 'humans'? You'll have to tune into the Pub network every Saturday at 1PM to find out!

    However, the ponies want nothing to do with their frightening new ruler, and the unamused Spirits of Equestria aim to drag the Spirit of Chaos away before he can cause any more harm.

    Story: Zenith (New Part 2!)


    [Adventure] "Heartwrenching, beautiful, and utterly awesome. I'll never look at Spike the same way again." – Pre-reader Amacita

    Author: The Descendant
    Description: Once upon a time, Spike went for a walk.

    While on his walk, he was judged by an ancient alicorn, lodged with griffons, parlayed with air pirates, charmed a maiden of a mystical race, and dealt with the scourges of hate, fear, and racism while deliberately drawing the armies of myriad nations to the brink of global war.

    Once upon a time, Spike went for a walk, and did all of this so that he could keep a promise to the one that meant the most to him... Twilight Sparkle.
