The run-up to Bronycon has been a mad whirlwind of RCL activity!  Five curators are attending (two for the first time!), and one of us is an official community guest. Several of us are participating in the Golden Oaks Bookstore (as author, author and publisher).  And we’re even running a panel!

Come join the Royal Canterlot Library in the Hall of the Moon from 11:15 AM-12:15 PM Saturday, Aug. 3 for “Ponyfic: There Can Be Only One”! We’ve selected 16 stories from among the fandom’s best of the best — a combination of curators’ favorites and crowd favorites from our community voting — and are going to introduce them to our audience and pit them against each other in a voting bracket to discover MLP’S BEST FANFIC™.  (It’s all in good fun; there’s no way to be objective about a task this big, but it’s an excuse to talk about some really awesome stories.)  Join us and help us determine which author takes home the bragging rights!

Here’s a sneak preview of our bracket — half of our sixteen contenders:

Eakin’s “Hard Reset”
shortskirtsandexplosions’ “Background Pony”
Monochromatic’s “The Enchanted Library”
Horse Voice’s “The Writing on the Wall”
Dromicosuchus’s “Mendacity”
GaPJaxie’s “Around the World in 81 Days (And Other Problems Caused by Leap Years)”
PatchworkPoltergeist’s “The Silver Standard”
GhostOfHeraclitus’ “Whom the Princesses Would Destroy…”

Look forward to seeing you there!
