The Harvest Family farm is on the brink of financial collapse. Can this Lord Barleycorn really deliver on all his promises?
Hollow Shades is a small farming and lumberjacking community, a tiny bubble of Equestria smack in the middle of the Everfree Forest. Things have been hard-going since the lumber mill was closed down by its aristocratic owner, and the town is slowly dying. The fate of the town weighs heavily even on the town's youth, with young filly Corn Crib of the Harvests being intimately aware of the fact things aren't going well for her family and friends. And then, a ray of hope comes into her life when she encounters a most unusual figure on the road nearby; a talking scarecrow, one that claims to be Lord Barleycorn, the King of Autumn, who promises to help her however he can. Can the two of them succeed in breathing life back into Hollow Shades?
This is a lighthearted story that contains lots of OCs and an original setting. The mane six will appear, but not until later chapters.
First time featured was May 23, 2014! I can't believe it! Thank you everyone! =3 And now recommended on TVTropes! Picture was made by my friend Escopeto. He did a fantastic job of representing my story.
Okay, I don't know if anyone can hear this, or read this, or whatever, but I'm trying my best to use Pinkie Pie's legendary fourth-wall-breaking powers to try and get a message out.
If you can hear this, I need help. I'm in Equestria, and man, this is strange. But I'm also stuck in Pinkie Pie's body, for some reason.
Yes, it's just as weird as it sounds. And now, I need your help... because all the ponies in this town think I'm crazy!
The world is vast and so is time, but not even that can hide the existence of an ancient city forever.
A post-apocalyptic story about exploring ruins, the mistakes of another civilization, and memory.
No one must ever know, This land where we must go, They hoped and shared their love, Yet death rained from above, The scars of passing linger on, Through empty husks and unheard songs. Although they now live in my heart, The truth still hurts...where do I start?-Twilight Sparkle
Coverart by this guy who is awesome. THIS GUY Also, major thanks to Luna-tic for helping me edit this sucker! Perhaps even bigger thanks to Obabscribbler who made a radio play of it. You can find that radio play HERE!

Harry Dresden must go to Equestria to stop an evil plot by the Order of the Blackened Denarius
Crossover with the Dresden Files. Sequel to Forever!
For his first task as the new Winter Knight, Harry must travel to the land of cute little cartoon ponies to stop a plot by the Order of Blackened Denarius that threatens both Earth and Equestria.
Warning: Includes massive spoilers for the Dresden Files series up through Ghost Story.
Jackson is going on a simple hunt. It would be much easier without interruptions. Like a certain pony princess coming in for a visit.
Being innocent and still convicted of murder was a hell of a fate. After ten years of living a lawless life, Jackson had finally secured his own little home. Even if he had to hunt for meals, and fight monsters just to survive. It was home now. Far enough away that his rampant killing to survive couldn't hurt others. Far enough away that no one would find him. Until Princess Sparkle showed up.
Now he's been shaken, his old life rearing its head to give him the option to return home. There's nothing in the world he'd rather do, but he can't. Broken like a child's toy, he doesn't even remember how to talk to other people without resorting to violence. So he stays on his island, living a life safe and alone.
Sunset Shimmer wasn't doing so well, until Pinkie Pie found something to shoot for. Literally... with Airsoft guns. - [Slice of Life]
A Tale Too Far.
The goal Sunset Shimmer devoted her entire life to was a lie. Raw power had limits. Friendships did not. Sunset's conquerors embraced her with open arms. Searching for a way to bring her new, slightly jaded friend into her circle, Pinkie Pie stumbles upon something that may do much more than that. Something that builds trust and teams, something that turns friends into family. They happen to be Airsoft guns.

Inspired by the anime "Tokurei Sochi Dantai Stella Jogakuin Koutou-ka C³-bu" ("Stella Academy Club C³") and the exploits of the ArmA community group "Shack Tactical." At least in spirit, if not style.
Rated Teen for occasional harsh language. You're all kinda adults, deal.
Death has come for Anon. Unfortunately, she has her work cut out for her.
Anon's dead, apparently, and Death has come to claim his soul. There's just one problem: he doesn't want to go. And there's nothing Death can do to make him.
The Piano Man is free, but must now recover from his captivity and adjust to life in Equestria.
The Piano Man has spent the last month in captivity, forced to play the piano as part of The Great and Powerful Trixie's traveling show. Now he's free, and recovering under the care of the Equestrian monarchy while Trixie awaits trial for her crimes. All is not well, however. The Piano Man has a long road of recovery ahead, and all the time he must compete with overbearing carers, his own mental trauma, and even discrimination from members of Equestria's unicorn supremacist subculture.
This story is the kinda(can't stress that part enough) better-written sequel to 'The Piano Man'. Because the first story involved some rather dark scenes, I have included a helpful catch-up in the first chapter - so if you have no interest in reading a dark story, then you can ignore the first piece and skip straight ahead to this one. 'The Piano Man: Act II' is most certainly not a dark story, and neither is it sad. The sad tag is in place for scenes in which I reference the previous installment, and nothing else.
The absolutely amazing cover image was created by the even more amazing WIL_I_ZIN, (deviantART) who is just... just awesome, for helping out.
A pianist from Earth is summoned to Equestria - to become a piano-playing playing slave.

What happens when a middle age brony wakes up in the body of a foal? And when no one believes him?
Have you ever woken up somewhere you don't recognize? I have, once before. This time was not all that different. Headache? Check. Dry mouth? Check. Upset stomach? Check. Hooves? Uhm, that one is new.
Hi, I'm Bruce and I'm 32. Currently, I'm in a light blue Earth Pony foal's body no one has ever seen before. The rest of Equestria thinks I'm 9 and something really traumatic happened to me. It doesn't help I swear like a sailor and I could really go for a smoke right about now. I just hope that the Everfree Forest, rampaging monstrosities, evil dark abominations against God and the Cutie Mark Crusaders don't kill me before I have just one last drag.
Oh, and ponies are hella creepy when you really think about it. Geez.
A little comedy side project. EDIT: HAHA Main project. More characters to be added if I get that far. Categories might be refined as I write. Entire thing is unplanned except vaguely. Don't Expect excessive cursing to be written out, just hinted at. Oh, and as the character is a 30-ish year old in the body of a 9 year old, sexual jokes might exists but sex itself will not occur.
Special thanks to user Momomojito for the awesome-tastic picture! First fanart, I'm so HAPPY. I've gotten more since then! I should collect it all here.Collected!

I'm a spiteful old man. I've spent my entire life trying to fulfill my wish. The same thing every one of us wants. It's 2070. I'm the last brony alive, 82 years old. But I did it. I created the portal. And I'm jumping through. No regrets.

A Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Story involving you and Celestia having some cuddly, snuggly moments together.
You are a human in Equestria, forced to work as a for-hire 'stress management consultant' (ie, cuddler) in order to make ends meet in this strange world while others search for a way for you to get home. However, you've just been assigned to your biggest job yet- 'managing the stress' of none other than Princess Celestia herself. How will you go about your job? In this Choose-Your-Own-Adventure story, you make the decisions, you are responsible for the consequences, and many possible storylines await!
I don't know what vile force decided to dump me on this planet without the courtesy of letting me change out of my PJs, but he/she/it had less than benevolent intentions. I came to that conclusion the moment I woke up next next to an irritable, jumbo-sized bird of prey by the name of Gilda.
The good news is that human doesn't seem to be on the local diet, Gilda's family are far more docile than her, and there may just be a shot at seeing Earth again if this world's magic is to be trusted.
The bad? Said chance at getting home is far too interested in picking my brains apart or otherwise using me up for comfort. Then there’s the small matter of the many crushing, stabbing, and get-blown-to-bits, hazards associated with a world full of mythical creatures. Oh, did I mention that I was allergic to the natives?
Seriously, if this is the cosmos' idea of entertainment, something's gone terribly wrong.
