Go back to the show's main fanfic recommendation page here.
- Recommended by Jayrad
- Synopsis: The MLP: FiM fansite. In addition to other fanworks on the site, its archive of fanfics can be found here, or if that list hasn't been updated recently, the individual posts for each story can be found here. Every story is reviewed by pre-readers before being posted, so the stories will all be at least okay, usually.

- Synopsis: The other MLP fansite. This one focuses solely on fanfiction, and as a pure fanfiction site, has superior tools for finding great stories than Equestria Daily. Story moderation is fairly lax, so you'll have to apply Sturgeon's Law. Rhere is a far wider variety of content, and many great fics, which were ether rejected by EQD, or never submitted to it, can be found here.
- Recommended by Chibi Kibou
- 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.
Equestria Chronicles
- Recommended by Masterweaver
- 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.

- 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).
The Descendant (also known as TheDescendantofKehAn)
- Recommended by Korodzik, guitarfan 01 , Doomguy0
- 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. He's a friendly guy who loves two write about Spike as well as the Cakes.
- Recommended by Lopiny
- 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. They have to go through hell to make their relationship work, but it's all worth it in the end.

- Comments: There are no words for how epic this man's stories are. Seriously, just go read them. You might find Vinyl Scratch, or Surprise, or even The Doctor! But I can guarantee you will find epicness up the a$s!

- Comments: Kalash started out writing just serious stories, but he has since expanded. He has written a lot of war stories with strong influences from Russian and Soviet conflicts, such as Afghanistan and Chechnya, and to be honest, given the way he can talk intimately about war and weapons without glorifying anything, it's possible he's seen some bullets flying and perhaps launched some himself. Being tetralingual and a bit of traveller, he has some intersting stories to tell. His normal style is highly detailed realism, but he's flexible. He's written things from poems, to second person, to first person, to pieces about grief, to childhood memoirs, and so on. Just a word to the wise, if you turn off the mature filter, you'll see that he's written plenty of, ahem, "adult" material.
