Mlp Fanfiction - Blog Posts

I know I've been absent but I've started work on a fanfiction version of the silly little story all my art is inspired by! May as well shamelessly promote it here. Gonna be a while before some of my art makes sense but I hope people give it a shot. https://www.fimfiction.net/story/563433/school-of-restoring-harmony

My brain's wandering around some contrived Meta level plot or other around my poor Azure Star and why they are probably fundamentally incapable of fitting into the wider Multiverse (including broader Fandom) because of what they are rather than who, and discovering that their entire "multiversal presence" is limited to like… a handful of variants of herself always in universes that have something kind of fundamentally wrong with them, at least compared to the "ideal" (IE Original) universe she discovers exists out there.

Just considering how it'd feel to find out you're just so fundamentally "weird" and "wrong" because of your origins that you've effectively been branded an outcast from all "proper" realities that exist and pushed out to only show up in the dregs, and what that must do to your self esteem

Fanfiction?

I’ve been considering adapting the text-based RPG adventure I’ve been doing with my partner where Azure and the other horses I've drawn here into a proper "fanfiction" for a while, complete with cleaning things up for consistency and snazzing up the language a bit.

But there’s still a few things I don’t really know for certain. Would it be better to keep the script-style dialogue tags and lean into that as a format, or do I need to put in the hours to adapt it to more literary “he said, she exclaimed”?

Would it be better to be honest and include uncomfortable and not entirely safe for work implications in it from the outset, or should those bits be separated as optional content in side stories?

I suppose I’m really just looking for advice on how to get the full story out there without alienating the few people that might be following along with it already.
