Corsair Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Canterlot's own Phil the Time Wizard has gotten his fan-fiction posted up on Equestria Daily.http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/10/story-entwining-of-hearts.htmlAlso, a few months ago, an RP by Tales, Skye, and Mudbug was turned into a fanfic, and also got onto EqD:http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/story-two-truths-and-skye.htmlI think it needs to be a rule that if you get yourself on EqD, you owe the rest of the forum drinks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RarityDash Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Yeah... I actually wrote this before I even came to this site... I wasn't going to submit it, since up until very recent edits I didn't think it was anywhere near good enough, but then I decided I wanted to help plug my favorite pairing, which I think is underutilized by the fandom. So I fixed it up a bit and sent it in.But they were nice and gave me good advice. I might submit more of my stuff to them at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kal413 Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 How is Equestria Daily on dealing with submissions?I'm still not done editing my story, but I feel like they want something perfect and amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RarityDash Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 They seemed pretty cool to me and I definitely wouldn't call my work either perfect or particularly amazing. The pre-readers give some pretty good feedback, I think. They seemed helpful, and never came across as cold or overly critical. I think they really helped me make my stories better. I had to submit my first story three times before it was put up, and I'm currently on my third submission with the second fic I submitted to them. So yeah, don't expect them to instantly like it and put it up or anything. If you listen to them and do what they say, after a few rounds of working on it, things should work.

MyLittlePonyTales Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Hmm, they do have some guidelines. I think the first chapter/part has to be... 2500 words? Or was it 1500? They also like decent spelling and grammar, and minimal OCs unless your story is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a hard time criticising myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RarityDash Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 So yeah, Equestria Daily just put up a second of my fan fics:http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/10/story-friendship-is-magic-love-is.htmlYay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kal413 Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 That's cool.If only I had more incentive to edit the story I wrote. I'm pretty sure most of my errors would be on style, since I do think I write well most of the time. I'll get to it eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
