but taking a trip down memory lane was fun.
ARE YOU READY?! · 12:03am Aug 17th, 2015
It's time to announce the winners of my sad fic contest!
3rd Place:
Wish You Were Here by Pononimous
Grammar: 35/40
Creativity: 4/10
Story: 35/50
Total: 74/100
This fic was pretty sad. It focuses around a stallion who's writing a letter to his wife. He talks about how he's doing and their daughter. Then, he goes to send the letter. He puts it on a tombstone along with some flowers. Then he and his daughter walk away in tears.
The grammar was good, and it wasn't all that creative, because it was kind of obvious that the wife was dead. Also, the story itself was good.
Congratulations, Pononimous! You win a picture of your OC in human OR pony form, you get to choose (tell me what your OC looks like), a shout-out on a blog post, and bragging rights.
2nd Place: Goodbye Moon by Mocha Star
Grammar: 30/40
Creativity: 7/10
Story: 40/50
Total: 77/100
This fic almost had me crying. It's about a filly and her mother watching a Wonderbolts performance. Rainbow Dash picks up the filly (with the mother's permission), sets her on her back, then flies around. Then, Rainbow accidentally dropped the filly! She becomes unconscious. She becomes conscious in the hospital, but merely believes it's her room at home. All her friends and family are there, crying. They sing to her, and the filly slowly goes to sleep, unknown that she was dying.
The grammar was good, and it was a pretty creative fic. Since the story had me close to tears, I'd say it's pretty good.
Congratulations, Mocha Star! You win a picture of your OC in human OR pony form, you get to choose (tell me what your OC looks like), a picture of one dessert pony (send me a picture of a dessert), shout-out on a blog post, and bragging rights.
1st Place: Losing Myself: Pinkie and Pinkamena by Coldfire Hart
Grammar: 36/40
Creativity: 8/10
Story: 45/50
Total: 89/100
This fic was pretty sad. It's about Pinkie Pie and her twin sister, Pinkamena. They're at Sweet Apple Acres with Spike and the rest of the Mane Six. After a game of hide-and-seek, they help Applejack with raising a new barn. Pinkie then gets hit and injured. In the hospital, Mena goes to visit her, hearing Pinkie's last words: "I. Love. You." She begins to cry, then gets some alone time with her. Then, Mena stops Pinkie's life support. Pinkie took her last few breaths.
The grammar was good, and it was pretty creativity, as I did not expect for Mena to end Pinkie's life support. The story was also a good read as well.
Congratulations, Coldfire Hart! You win a picture of your OC in human OR pony form, you get to choose (tell me what your OC looks like), a picture of one dessert pony (send me a picture of a dessert), a picture of a pony of your choice crying, and another pony hugging them, assuring them it'll be all right, shout-out on a blog post, and bragging rights!
To the winners: PM me to hear about the details about your prize!

Thank you to everyone who participated, and congratulations to the winners! I will announce the next contest in June 2016 (because of school)!
Also... this is my hundredth blog! Yay!
How nice! I won third place! Thanks! And, yeah, I know the grammar wasn't that great and it was pretty obvious but it's not bad for something I whipped together in about twenty minutes after being inspired by a song title. Again, thanks!
And my most heartfelt and happy congratulations to Coldfire Heart for winning! Well done!
