Princess Twilight has really grown on me. Trying to fit into her new role gives her character a lot of new places to go.
Anyway guys, because the schedule for these training grounds posts has been a little weird, we're going to try something new in hopes of making it less all over the place. Starting with the next post, the prompts for each week and the compilation of the week before will be in the same post. That way, you have one simple spot to visit each week to receive your prompt and to check out the entries being submitted. All the fun of the Writer's Training Grounds in one easy package!
Because we're waiting for the "Slice of Life" event to end, the next prompt will be available on Monday, June 22nd, along with the Slice of Life entries.
For now, have some training grounds submissions, after the break!

Could I arrange for everyone in Ponyville to do just that? I was differently shy than that famously shy Fluttershy, but shy nonetheless, and tongue-tied around others. I’m even scared of butterflies… Yeah, I’m Bulk Biceps, and this is my time-bending tale.

While decorating Twilight's new castle, Pinkie Pie thought it would be funny to hide a few confetti cannons around the place. Looking back on it, Twilight did think it was funny. The first time at least. By the fourth time however, not so much.
