thank you. it's actually nice to see a long one because so often it feels like i get barely a sentence from people. let me answer your questions.
1. the story is currently in hiatus. I got pulled into a group of author writing a group of stories after i joined fimfiction to post the story there instead (i think you might find one more chapter there but i can't remember.) It's also in hiatus because i lost my spur to write something like it for a while, but in my free time i've been working on the next chapter.
2. Thanks! i had the idea a while ago and started to make pictures, but then i thought about making it into a story.
3. for the most part it was going to be sort of like the original but with enough of a twist that it was mine. To pace myself, i decided to make each chapter go along w/ the chapters of the book.
Hope that answered your questions, and feel free to ask anything else if you think of it.
(now your comment doesn't look as long, right?)

Ah, I see. Awesome. And thank you for answering my questions, I get how it feels when you lose your mojo for writing stuff, as I have writer's block quite frequently. I suppose you could also consider asking someone for a commission for your stuff if you wanted, that's what I often do, but that's up to you. I hope you'll return to that story someday, and I look forward to hen you do. 
yeah, i've been trying to start doing commissions, but after about a month i've still got nothing
Hmmm, yeah, I've kinda found it hard to find people doing MLP commissions on DA, oddly enough. That being said, I do have one going with :iconObsidian-Dragoness:, she might be interested in your points, or 
, both are REALLY good at drawing stuff.

Ooh, I haven't been asked to do a pony before ^.^ I do draw them frequently in my spare time, though.
Heh, I'd like to branch out into MLP stuff alongside my Spyro stuff; so far I've uploaded one submission relating to that, and am working on getting a commission for a scene in the prologue from 
.

(This is the last WiP image she sent me with a background, and the model of the pony OC, the late Mayor Paver Goldstreets, is also getting a reworking.)
I think, sometime, I might want some more pics relating to that, and some of my others OCs here. If you're interested?
.The Manehatten Project: Prologue: A New Mayor..."I know, Janine, it's truly awful what happened to Mayor Goldstreets." An off-white unicorn stallion spoke on a cell phone, while sitting the back of a Manehatten taxi carriage. "People loved him so much, and why not? She did such good things for this fine city, truly she was a kind and generous mayor." He sighed. "She did always love dancing and parties though, who would've thought she'd be so taken over by it she'd ended up dancing herself off the top of her boat and drowning? Oh, I know! It was horrible. One minute she was trotting about, admiring and showing off those lovely new shoes someone gave her for her birthday, and then splash!" He winced, his voice choking as he wiped tears from his eyes with a hankie he levetated from his coat pocket. "...I heard she sank like a stone. I would've gone in after her like her bodyguards, but I can't swim. All I could do was watch, she was too heavy for three earth ponies to rescue?! I couldn't bare it, I had to get home. I, I just didn't fee

Frankly, I get tired of only drawing spyro dragons and dinos for Coms, so bring 'em on 
Hmmm, sure, okay, let's do a pony thing! You mentioned that 30 dollars or something from a previous commission in the other comment. We've got that, plus around 700 points left over that I have on me right now. I'm very tempted to do something involving my pony OCs, all... 3 of them... One of them's a villain, and one of them's dead!
Sadly, the picture I showed you, Paver (my mayor of Manehatten, replaced by Otto Cratic, my villain OC), was pretty much assasinated by Otto, Hans Christian Anderson style (The Red Shoes): In the picture, Paver was hosting a party on a ship out to sea on her yacht. While everyone else, including Otto (the master of the waiting game: He'd built up a relationship of reliability and trust with Paver for nearly 10 years). In her bedroom, getting ready for a dance, she finds an annoymous package, containing a pair of beautiful red horseshoes; they go quite lovely with her dress, and are a perfect fit. Very excited at this, she goes to show off her new shoes at a dance on the deck. The shoes then make her dance magnificently, far better than any of the other dancers, who just go to drinking and watching, getting tipsy. It then becomes apparent, to Paver's fright, that she can't stop dancing; she quickly figures out that it has to be the shoes, which suddenly become magically fused to her hooves, and no amount of her unicorn magic can get them off. She calls for help, but she has a tendency for the dramatic, and none of the drunk guests believe she's actually in any danger... Until the shoes suddenly veer her sharply to the left, making her fall overboard and into the ocean, where the shoes proceed to become extremely heavy, so much so that those who dive in to rescue her can't help her to the surface, and she drowns. It's pretty brutal, but it was pretty much the magic answer to concrete shoes... And that's what that commission was of.
Yeah, Otto is a master manipulator, a skilled unicorn magician, a convincing liar, extremely genre savvy, and dangerously patient. Nobody would even consider suspecting him, since he'd been (or at least appeared to be) one of Paver's most loyal supporters. And so, when he quickly leaves, traumatized at seeing one of his oldest friends suddenly dead, nobody batted an eyelid.
But what commission to make of this? Hmm...
