Hi all, I was hoping you lovely people out there could help me. I am now attempting to collate together short stories written by pony book authors which are in other books such as collections, pony club/ girls annuals etc.
If you come across any please could you add to this thread including title of story, author, name of book/annual it is in and if you want also a quick plot summary (not essential tho!) This would be a great help to me as there must be hundreds of stories out there!

Thanks mysteryarab, there were quite a few 'something' books for girls (and boys) through the years! Funny how they don't produce them any more. Maybe too sexist!

Claire,not sure if this is what you are looking for but i have at least 10 big compilation books that have heaps of short stories in them...though some are chapters from actual books,like black beauty and no good pony etc...but there are lots of single short stories in them.

Hi tinuviel, thanks yes I am looking for stories from well-known pony authors that appear in compilations, annuals and the like, full stories tho not excerpts. I would be interested in any you had time to list/describe
