9	* ''Synopsis'': The largest MLP: [=FiM=] fansite. In addition to other fanworks on the site, its archive of fanfics can be found [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/09/eqd-super-simple-archiver-test.html here]], or if that list hasn't been updated recently, the individual posts for each story can be found [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/search/label/Story here]]. Every story is reviewed by pre-readers before being posted, so they are at least grammatically competent.

13	* Recommended by {{Tropers/Salnax1}}, autobot, molotov
14	* ''Synopsis'': The other MLP fansite. This one focuses solely on fanfiction, and as a pure fanfiction site, has superior tools for finding stories than Equestria Daily... but also has lower standards so SturgeonsLaw applies. The two sites have a fairly close relationship though, so most of the best content is featured on both sites.

17	* Recommended by {{Tropers/ChibiKibou}}, molotov
18	* ''Synopsis'': A {{MUSH}}-type roleplaying environment, based on the series-proper and keeping about as close to canon as one can with roleplay and whilst allowing original characters. Play is centered on Ponyville, but takes place in other areas, also.

23	* ''Synopsis'': An imageboard section dedicated to reviewing and critiquing MLP:[=FiM=] fanfiction, particularly prior to an author's submission to fanfiction repositories like Blog/EquestriaDaily and Platform/FimfictionDotNet. Authors can find dedicated reviewers to help them pre-read and edit their stories, as well as brainstorming and story creation threads. Sites such as Blog/EquestriaDaily often refer stories which are initially rejected to the reviewers of this community to help them improve the stories prior to re-submission.

27	* Recommended by {{Tropers/Masterweaver}}, molotov
28	* ''Synopsis:'' A play-by-post RP forum, Equestria Chronicles has a constant continuity and a very friendly community. The story itself is rather grimdark, with Tyrant!Celestia being played absolutely seriously, but it focuses more on individuals and allows for many subplots.

32	* A tumblr blog which posts a prompt every day and gives writers 30 minutes to write a story based on it. The stories can be of any genre, but must be SFW. A very good source of well-written short stories.

36	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Eakin Eakin]]
37	* Recommended by: Teraflop
38	* Eakin is an action-oriented author best known for the Time Loop Trilogy: ''Fanfic/{{Hard Reset\|Eakin}}'' ([[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/67362/hard-reset link]]), [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/82419/a-stitch-in-time A Stitch in Time]], and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/112831/you-can-fight-fate You Can Fight Fate]], with a [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/127038/changing-lives spinoff sequel]] in the works. The trilogy follows Twilight as she works to stop a series of cascading crises, and is told in a colloquial, direct, and humorous style. All of the characters fit their canon personalities perfectly. It's got elements of everything: philosophy, relationships, absurdity, despair, and Twilight beating up a ton of changelings—definitely worth a read. Eakin has also written a [[FanFic/FriendshipIsOptimalTheLawOfficesOfArtemisStellaAndBeat worthy contribution]] to the [[Fanfic/FriendshipIsOptimal Friendship Is Optimal]] universe ([[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/70441/friendship-is-optimal-the-law-offices-of-artemis-stella-beat link]]), as well as a number of one-shots and other stories. Just be warned when reading his stories featuing humans however, as they tend to [[HumansAreBastards portray a less]] [[HumansAreMorons than favorable]] [[PunyEarthlings view]] of us. The infamous XCOM: Enemy Unthreatening received wide internet flak for his portrayal of humans and the princesses.

48	* Recommended by: Molotov.
49	* An author who writes a variety of stories. This guy tends to favor mature examinations of characters, along with a lot of intelligently-integrated world building. So far, he's written [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/LastOneStanding Last]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/81159/1/racer-and-the-geek/ Racer And The Geek,]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/85411/1/reflections Reflections,]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/88520/1/welcome-to-the-brothel Welcome To The Brothel,]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/90939/1 Shell Shock]][[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/93809/a-pleasant-surprise , A Pleasant Surprise.]][[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/100083/1/blissful-dream , Blissful Dream,]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/106068/1/relax Relax,]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/109581/1/i-did-not-want-to-die/ I Did Not Want To Die,]] and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/119688/1 You Obey,]] [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/124263/songs-uncle-sings SongsUncleSings,]] and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/128532/hot-button-beach-day HotButtonBeachDay.]] His basic style is rather academic yet direct, with a mix of character-driven narrative, world building, and emotional impact. However, some of his stories are written in different styles, varying from incredibly rich prose of to the extremely focused stream of consciousness. He also drops a lot of helpful reviews and critiques, especially when asked. JustForFun/OneOfUs.

57	* Recommended by ladyofthelibrary, molotov
58	* ''Synopsis'': This artist/author draws exclusively [=FiM=] art and most of it shipping related. There are three stories featuring his couples and their kids currently though one is still unfinished. The stories are very sweet and the fan kids are darling. His pairings are Lyra/Bon Bon, Twiluna, Discord/Celestia, Carameljack, Fluttermac, Braeburn/Pinkie Pie, Soarindash, Sparity, Scootabelle, Doctor Whooves/Derpy, Apple Bloom/OC, Diamond Tiara/Twist (though it's only a background) and several OC/OC pairings. If you have the time to browse, both the stories and artwork are wonderful. However there are some dark elements included in all three stories. The stories are called ''Tootsie Flute Makes Three'', ''Spike the Werepony'' and ''Luna the Matchmaker'' (currently unfinished).

60	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/The%20Descendant The Descendant]] (also known as [[http://thedescendantofkehan.deviantart.com/ TheDescendantofKehAn]])
61	* Recommended by Tropers/{{guitarfan01}}, molotov, @/{{Korodzik}}
62	* An author with a rich and elaborate style, The Descendant sets his touching fics in a sort of a serious fantasy version of Equestria. The fics all figure, more or less, into an overarching plot, though each stands on its own as well. His stories are varied (from silly comedy through philosophical musings to dark fantasy), though mostly rather light-hearted (if not shying away from darker and mature topics). One can also spot some Christian philosophy in his fics if one cares to look.

64	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Cerulean1313 Cerulean1313]]
65	* Recommended by Lopiny, psycojosho, molotov
66	* This author writes shipping fics, all set within the same timeline, between the Mane cast and OCs. This might sound a bit off-putting, but, when you get past that, you find a great mix of comedy, drama and romance, all set around the current fic's pairing, with previous fic's characters there to participate. [[EarnYourHappyEnding They have to go through hell to make their relationship work, but it's all worth it in the end]].

69	%%Yes, he posts his real name in both of his profiles. No, I am not taking it down. I will only take it down if the man himself requests it, and I won't accept anything less than decisive evidence concerning his identity, in the event of trolls or moralfrags impersonating him. -M.K.%%
70	* '''Recommended By''': [[Tropers/MugenKagemaru Mugen Kagemaru]], molotov
71	* '''Comments''': There are no words for how epic this man's stories are. Seriously, just go read them. You might find [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E14SuitedForSuccess Vinyl]] [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E26ACanterlotWeddingPart2 Scratch]], or [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyAndFriends Surprise]], or even [[Series/DoctorWho The Doctor]]!

74	* Recommended by Kavonde, molotov
75	* A real-life high school teacher, he writes Cheerilee with a kind of authenticity that's hard to match, and gives her an endlessly entertaining and quirky personality. His story "School Daze" is a loving tribute to the ''Film/StandAndDeliver'', and even includes multiple song numbers and an honest-to-god TrainingMontage. He's also a huge ''Series/DoctorWho'' fan and has done a great job turning Derpy into a lovable and believable romantic lead for Dr. Whooves. Seriously, he rocks. Go read his stuff.
76
77	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Daily%20Show%20Ponies Daily Show Ponies]]
78	* Recommended by autobot, molotov
79	* Basically, the author has Jon Stewart from ''Series/TheDailyShow'' interview certain ponies and Spike. Way better than it sounds, the author gets Jon's personality down pat.

81	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/defender2222 defender2222]]
82	* Recommended by {{Tropers/Kytseo}}, Tropers/ClatoLawa, molotov
83	* I've only read a couple of his fics, both comedy (''FanFic/TheManySecretOriginsOfScootaloo'' and ''FanFic/TheGodSquad''), but those by themselves give him my recommendation. Both fics are pretty good examples of {{postmodern}} absurdism, and you'll probably be laughing your flank off reading them. He also has a few more serious sounding fics (going from the titles & descriptions only that is), one being FilmNoir-ish, showing he has range. That said, the fact that the first mentioned comedy fic has it's own tvtropes page should say something.
84	** Having read ''Fanfic/FaithAndDoubt'', ''The Abundance'' and ''[[Fanfic/HowDoYouShootAGunWithHooves How Do You Shoot a Gun With Hooves?]]'', [[Tropers/ClatoLawa I]] can attest to that range.
85
86	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Friendly+Uncle Friendly Uncle]]
87	* Recommended by Tropers/ClatoLawa, molotov, Tropers/MadCormorant
88	* Friendly Uncle is known for a number of one-shots dealing with subjects that would be taboo for the series - such as [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/39639/Estrus sex education]], [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/38472/Fluffershy pornography]] and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/39247/2/They%27re-Comfy-and-Easy-to-Wear/April-20th marijuana use]] - in a typically hilarious fashion, while still keeping the Mane Six in character. HeAlsoDid ''[[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/38478/The-Creature-that-Came-to-Ponyville The Creature that Came to Ponyville]]'', a genuinely dark and violent crossover with {{Franchise/Alien}} [[spoiler:and {{Franchise/Predator}}]], which is as well written as any of his comedies. Definitely a writer to keep an eye on.
89	** Mind you, that marijuana scene with Rarity and Fluttershy getting stoned? Also a heartwarming examination of introversion (Fluttershy) and extroversion (Rarity), with both parties comforting the other that there's nothing wrong with the way they behave.

91	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/MallaJong1 Mallajong1]]
92	* Recommended by Tropers/{{Kytseo}}, molotov
93	* Want to read a shipfic starring everyone's favorite number one assistant?, this is where to go! Mallajong1 specializes in ship fics starring Spike, and he writes them quite well, with said fics actually feeling like legitimate blossoming romances for Twilight's surrogate brother. Highly recommended, please support his goal of getting Spike all the bitches.

95	[[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/3265373/Doc-Delray Doc Delray]]
96	* Recommended by Tropers/{{RWG}}, molotov
97	* If you're a fan of ''Star Wars'', then you should love Doc Delray's ''Franchise/StarWars''/''MLP'' crossover [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7416353/1/Of-War-and-Friendship Of War and Friendship,]] and its pseudo-sequel [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8571134/1/On-the-side On the side.]] "Of War and Friendship" and "On the side" are stories about a merging between the ''Star Wars'' and ''MLP'' universes, and features a great many mythological reasons to explain this merge. This, coupled with a fantastic story, great original characters, and interesting interpretations of existing ones, makes Doc Delray's works some of the best I've ever read.

99	[[https://www.fimfiction.net/user/Tragicom Tragicom]]
100	* Reccommended by Tropers/ClatoLawa
101	* Tragicom recently started a series of ''Series/DoctorWho'' {{Fusion Fic}}s based on classic serials. So far, these have included adaptations of:
102	** ''[[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/79823/doctor-whooves-classic-the-five-doctors The Five]] [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Recap/DoctorWho20thASTheFiveDoctors Doctors]]'' - Bon Bon as Tegan (WordOfGod is that Lyra will be Nyssa if she ever appears in a story), Caramel as Turlough, Shining Armor as the Brigadier, Twilight as Sarah Jane, Colgate as Romana, Derpy as Jo and Private Pansy as Jamie.

112	* Recommended by: [[Tropers/YamiVizzini Yami Vizzini]]
113	* "Just a humble writer with some stories to tell"- but what stories! Author of a series of (mostly) one-shots delving into the backstories and relationships of the Mane 6 and CMC, amongst others. Not only do they serve as a frequently heartwarming (and occasionally tear-jerking) look at the ponies we know and love, but they gradually introduce choices and connections that steadily hint at both a dark past and a dark future for Equestria. "Each story, each secret, each moment brings you ever closer... a storm is coming."

117	* If you want an expanded look at the Equestria Girls world, this is the place to find it. Jay has an entire continuity of stories set in the world, and everyone gets a little bit of love, but special mention has to be given to his take on the Sirens. The first story can be found [[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/289139/of-rainbooms-and-dazzlings here]], while the list of stories in order can be found [[https://www.fimfiction.net/blog/614810/my-equestria-girls-continuity here]].

119	[[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Redback%20Spino Redback Spino]]
120	* Recommended by Femoman
121	* A very underrated writer with an interesting catalogue of works, ranging from adventure to horror to propaganda to christmas-special! If you're looking for something with an epic, adventurous high-fantasy sort of feel to it, then look no further than Redback's fic, [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/44105/the-tears-of-gaia The Tears of Gaia]]. It's currently ongoing, but it is beautifully written, rife with scenery porn, magic and even song numbers! And if adventure isn't your thing, he has also written very many Lovecraftian horror fics, including straight adaptations of Lovecraft stories, such as [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/3477/the-statement-of-twilight-sparkle The Statement of Twilight Sparkle]], [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/5169/the-strange-music-of-octavia The Strange Music of Octavia]], and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/6962/scaling-the-tower Scaling the Tower]]. He really has the Lovecraftian style of atmosphere and chills down pat.
122	* And his latest project, [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/95765/kingdom-come Kingdom Come]], looks to be on its way to becoming something huge. Another darker fantasy story, it is apparently set have multiple tie-in sidestories and possibly even a prequel! definitely worth keeping an eye on.

188	* Member of Platform/FimfictionDotNet since September 9th, 2013. Justice is a master at writing bizarro comedy and parody, and most stories intentionally flanderize certain characters for the sake of humor. He's also responsible for the story [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/158551/the-sweetiemash-chronicles The SweetieMash Chronicles]]. Other stories I'd recommend are:

196	* Member of Platform/FimfictionDotNet since March 1st, 2012. Merc possesses a relative simple writing style and stories that emphasize action and deep emotions. He usually won't make you think too hard, but you'll be too busy laughing, crying, or cheering the protagonist on while she beats the villain into pulp to care. Watch for language and mature themes, not to mention the majority of his work is purely Humanized and AU, but an excellent grasp on the core characters (plus a great sense of worldbuilding) makes his work worth the time of any fan.
197	* Best works include:
198	** [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/53126/the-laughing-shadow The Laughing Shadow]]. Merc's crowning jewel, this story has it all. A Rari/Jack Romance (with a NSFW optional sex scene); a splendidly built AU; tons of movie action, complete with swearing and violence a-plenty. Sequel coming!
199	** [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/69329/fools-gold Fool's Gold]]. Actually the first story in the collaborative Heistverse, written with [[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/JaketheGinger JaketheGinger]] and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Peregrine+Caged Peregrine Caged]]. This is another Humanized AU, filled with violence and mature themes as the girls rob a bank to stop an evil tyrant.
200	*** The sequel: [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/80597/diamond-in-the-rough Diamond in the Rough]] Still full of action, but with much more world building and character play to expand the groundwork from Fool's Gold.
201	*** Side Stories: [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/89321/big-red Big Red]] and [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/141389/colder-weather Colder Weather]] take place during the primary Heistverse stories, but expand on either fewer characters in between or other characters in the world.
