well, of course the holy grail of advertising would be to get it on equestria daily. You'll probably only get a couple of people from here. But I'm sure you already know that.

we hope you'll stick around for more than just getting some more readers!

How the hell does one get on EQD? Inquiring minds wish to know.

Yay magnets! OH CRAP MY HARD DRI—

[up][up]You could try submitting it, I guess. I'm not sure there's a specific sequence of actions that will definitely get you featured.

And sorry about the hard drive. tongue

I saw they had a fanfic section, but it's already on Fim Fiction.

Bah, anyway. If someone really likes my story, they'll submit it for me. The best kind of advertising is word-of-mouth.

Er... best not to rely on that, really.

I've written more than a few fics in my time, and though I rarely use EQD these days it's simple enough. They have a submit button right along the top bar, and in there they'll have a link to a submission form that has everything you need.

the opinions of the pre-readers tend to dominate what gets put up, though, so just be aware of that. I had an m/m shipping fic be completely ignored for nigh on a month before some back-door(heh) skulking around finally got it looked at and posted, but it's inevitably a HUGE boost to have it up there. If you're doing a serial fic though, get a few chapters ready before you post it, because only first and last updates get features. the rest just go in the story updates posts, and it's easy for a story to get lost in those. So build up a nice hook for the readers before giving it to them there.

@Steventheman: Now that you've finished S2E10 "Secret of My Excess", you've got a choice of episode order, since S2E13 "Hearth's Warming Eve" premiered Out Of Order before S2E11 "Family Appreciation Day" and S2E12 "Baby Cakes". And after those three episodes, S2E14 "The Last Roundup" has two versions, though the differences are only in one scene and they don't affect the plot. (My apologies if you already knew about this stuff.)

@seandmon: A welcome to the thread!

Thanks, Kegisak

I got two chapters already done, with a third on the way. Hopefully I'll rope enough readers through a possible EQD feature that they'll tell others and I can have a naturally-growing audience.

Also, figured out that you can submit stories from Fim Fiction to EQD. Bueno.jpeg

I'll just go in number order. Seems easier.

I still don't think I understand why we were talking about magnets.

Fucking magnets, how do they work?

Speaking of the change to that episode, am I the only person who wanted to keep Derpy wall-eyed but have the new voice? The old voice just sounded...odd.

I was referring to the ability of some authors on Fim Fiction to accrue MASSIVE amounts of hits to their stories in just a few days. They're using magnets, obviously.

I liked the voice, it was funny...I just felt guilty for finding it funny. I know 'slow' people who talk like that.

Then I feel guilty for feeling guilty because of that whole controversy thing that I should be against because I'm supposed to like Derpy the way she is.

I am so confuse.

Derpy is fine just the way she is.

Either way that she is.

You're right, condo.

Wow. We agreed on something. That's boring.

Somebody say something controversial so we can have drama!

I know this was ages ago, but...
