As you read this, I'll be just about to set out to UK PonyCon. It's the convention's 20th birthday, and I'm hoping it'll be great this year! Naturally, I will report back afterwards. But let's get to the fics. It's back to non-contest fics for this week, and there are the usual five stories. Four of them had been on my RiL list for a while, whereas one (The Additional Alicorn Affair) was picked at random – within the bounds of a couple of parameters, such as being complete and not too long – from Fimfiction's search results. Here are the five:

One Sprout, Many Buds by Whinifree
"For I Am A Jelly God" by Posh
The Additional Alicorn Affair by PonyFate
Butter Up by GaPJaxie
The Darkest Day by Summer Knight

UK PonyCon: It's a sell-out! (Actually!)

A day or two ago I noted that Adult Weekend tickets for UK PonyCon had sold out. Well, now the single-day Saturday and Sunday tickets are gone as well! That means the convention is a complete sell-out. What a fantastic achievement. The biggest UKPC in history and demand has been so high that there are literally no tickets left. The longest running MLP con in the world is marking its 20th birthday in style!

Ponyfic Roundup delayed until Friday morning

Nothing too terrible going on, just a case of my convention preparations taking up a little more time than I'd guessed they would. Since I don't want to rush getting the reviews finished, I think it's fairer to all concerned (and to me :P ) if I move PR back a couple of days. PR 509 will appear on Friday 4th October. Since the following week is a very light one anyway, I'll keep that scheduled for Wednesday 9th.
