Folks, on EquestriaMUCK we have some great characters and tell some terrific stories. It's our contention that some of the creativity we foster should be shared with the larger pony fan community! For that reason--thank you Applejack for the suggestion--we decided to create an account on the premier MLP: FiM fanfiction site FiMfiction.net for the entire MUCK.
The account's username is EquestriaMUCK--you can see its profile here! There are no stories yet, but we'll put some up before long to get things going. The easiest inspiration for stories is, of course, the things that happen to us on the MUCK. Some of our logs could even be adapted into fiction, whether oneshots or serials. Everyone with a character involved would have to give their permission for them to be used--otherwise, minor characters could be omitted or replaced.
It's also possible to post pictures on FiMfiction--in blog posts or as decoration for stories. So that gives any illustrators who create MUCK-specific pictures another venue to have them seen.
If you have something you'd like to post on this account, ask a staffer for the password! We'll retain veto power just in case, but we'll generally exercise it only in case of abuse. We'll also change the password from time to time.
With this communal account, we'll have a showcase for the adventures we get into on our MUCK, and our players who may have written a little but not enough to justify their own accounts will now have a place to share their work. We also get to share each others' followers! So what do you all think? Got any ideas for stories? If there's enough interest, I'll create a new board or sub-board for this account elsewhere on the forum.
It may also make sense to create a Fimfiction group devoted to EquestriaMUCK, so that any players who already have accounts there (or want to open them) can join it. If you'd be interested in joining such a group, please let us know.
