Oh, I saw this on Patricia Lynne’s site and I couldn’t stop laughing. Then I realised I just had time to join in myself. And after a traumatic time in the dentist’s chair yesterday, with everything else that’s been going on recently, I thought it was about time I lightened up.
PonyFest is the invention of Rebecca Enzor, and the idea to make one of more of the characters in your book into My Little Pony characters. I hope you’re laughing!
So… here is what my hard-bitten asteroid miners, Big Pete and the Swede, really look like!!
I reckon that’s a pretty good likeness, even if I do say it myself!
Pete and the Swede are my heroes in The Perihelix, the first of a new science fiction series that will be out in January. You can get a sampler to give you a general idea of the universe they’re in, or follow their website at Viridianseries.uk.
The Perihelix: two orichalcum miners, three escorts, and a whole pile of trouble as the men get drawn back from the wilds of the Viridian System to face their destinies.
I can’t enter the competition at PonyFest as I’m in the UK, and I’ve broken the rules to let Pete be in a sitting pose anyway. But you can check out other mad fools/geniuses who have made their characters into ponies by checking the comments in Rebecca Enzor’s post.
and now, of course, I realise I could have placed them slightly differently….
They are too cute. I love the mustache!
😀
A mustachioed pony! That’s so awesome ^_^
Thanks for playing along even though you can’t win 🙂 If only shipping wasn’t so expensive across the ocean!
That’s ok, I know what you mean! It did me a lot of good to do something nice and fun today, thanks!
It does look like them!
They are so cute! Love the mustache and the watches!
I’m suffering moustache envy now.

Pete is aspiring to your mutton chops, David 🙂
So cute (and the placement is a bit funny, but it made me laugh)! Love the bronies and your descriptions of them.
Thanks, Angel!
