My Little Pony Tales -a fanfic

[Mari]

Hey everyone!


I am so sorry that I have been so MIA… just been busy with the holiday stuffs and then winter quarter started for me this month.
So sorry I haven’t been on! I’m so lame, I know…

Anyways… let me start by saying SORRY (again)… but I am not going to be doing the comic anymore. It just takes too much time and energy. Big drainer on me… but I really want to keep the story, so I’ve decided to keep it going in fanfic form. I had to write the story down anyways for the comic, so I have a pretty good outline going for me right now.
For me, writing is a lot easier than drawing a comic. It’s more fun, and is not as draining.

SO! I have created a livejournal to host my new fanfic! It will be where the story lives –where you can get all the chapters and my extra notes, and maybe even some illustrations (if I find the time).

It’s an open journal, meaning you don’t have to be a member to read or comment (though it’s nice to know who you are <3). I might consider making some entries special, so you have to be my friend to see them (sketches or author notes and such), but that would come later.

So yeah… onto the story…

This will be the continuation of my comic (from the beginning). It stars Sweetheart and Patch (for now). Don’t forget that my ponies are anthros… as in, they have hands, and do not wear clothes (but that’s it really).

All I shall reveal about it is that it is going to be a unique My Little Pony Tales crossover… what kind of crossover you wonder? Well… you’ll just have to read and wait to find out. <3

SO! Without further ado… I present to you… pony-9mm.livejournal.com

;D

I'm sorry to hear you stop makeink your beutyful comic but I can understand you, maybe someday youl'll make it as comic too.

[Mari]

Well, the story is the exacty same as it would've turned out... the only difference would is that I get to be more detailed and include more stuff in the fanfic because it doesn't take so much energy.


And I've tried several times to do comics... it's just so difficult. I don't have the time or energy, especially with college.

[brightglow]

I read your fanfic's first chapter and I think I can agree whit you it's better to be fanfiction, it would be hard to make this story in comic.

It was a bit strange they are anthros and they don't wear clothes,but it's ok, when Melody and Clover went to swimm I thought for a moment "Did they brought swim suit? What kind of swim suit did they wear?" than I noticed they don't need to wear clothes.

I'm so exciting, I can't wait to find out what will Bright Glow do and will the other Glowing Magical ponies appear?

It's really intresting how you wrote down the word where they live, it is close to my version. I belive all the G1, G2 and G3 ponies lives in the same pony world,but live in differen parts of this world. I belive Bright Glow and the other Glowing Magical Ponies from the Butterfly Island or from the other island, they have as big wings as Star Catcher has.

[Mari]

I don't recall in the Tales show if they ever said where they lived... so I just used "Ponyville" as a general term...

Yeah, with the clothes thing... I figured that they don't really wear clothes in the show, so why in the fanfic?
The hands issue is the only thing that really bothered me... I mean, how do you hold a pencil or a glass of milk with a hoof? lol

[Teddy]

You're forgiven! I think writing it out as a regular fic is a great idea! Comics leave out so many details, and I know they consume alot of time and energy.

I added your fic journal! I'm orca5094 on LJ. ^-^

[mlptfan]

Sad to see the comic go ;.; But I know how much energy it takes. I'll follow your story with high interest!

[Teddy]

I hope you don't mind, Mari. I shared the link to your fic journal with some of my Tales friends on LJ.

[Mari]

Thanks Teddy!

[Mari]

Chapter two is up! <3

With a little illustration too.


Hope y'all like it.

;D

[brightglow]

I read it, I really like how do you write down the area and the feelings. Keep going. I alwasy thought Sweethearrt and Teddy will dating but it seems in your story Sweetheart was too buisy to notice that she needs Teddy or she was just too shy. That true to Teddy too. Patch pointed out to that wery good.

Edit:
I think I found a little mistake in chapter two.

She picked up Sweetheart's empty cup. (Bon Bon)

than you wrote

Sweetheart sipped her raspberry honey tea, and looked out the window.

How could Sweetheart drink tea if Bon Bon take away her cup? I'm affraid you forgot to write down that Bon Bon brought a nother cup of tea to Sweetheat.

Belive me Teddy has got worse thing in his home life than his pearants don't really cared about him or they divorced, just think back to the begining of the Blue ribbon blues episode. Don't you think it's werid that Teddy feared from the water in the begining of the episode, when he know how to swimm?

[Teddy]

I love your art so much Mari, it's so beautiful! And I love this story!! I already commented on it in you LJ though, so I won't say any more here.

[Mari]

Thanks all!

I'm working on the next few chapters... I'm planning on writing a lot in advance so that I can dole out the chapters during weeks where I am swamped with school work... I have two term papers I have to write these next few weeks... no fun.

But it looks like Thursdays (maybe Fridays if I can't make it Thursday) will be a good update day... so yay!


Also, feel free to correct my on any minor mistakes like continuity, little spelling mistakes, or elementary grammer errors... I'm quite the perfectionist myself, but I miss things... but if you see something that distracts you, you can send me a note to let me know...
...at least until I can convince my boyfriend to be my beta (lol).

[brightglow]

You are very wellcome.

Sweethearts seems very intresting in your story, It seems she was always too buisy to help to her friends and she forgot to care about herself, that's why she didn't noticed how mutch she needs Teddy. She don't know what she wants and Patch pointed to it very well. I think she will learn that she is alredy loves Teddy or she wouldn't blushed when she talked about him whit Patch.

I never really thought she would change this mutch to don't notice what she needs when she alwasy noticed what the others needs.

[Mari]

Well, a lot can change in someone between the ages of ten and twenty-one or so...

I figure, that in order for the Tales girls to seem more believable, they would have changed a lot... I know a lot of my friends did as we all grew up.

I still want to keep it relatively canon though, so they will have many of the same qualities as they did when they were young.
