)Getting the Avatar effect with MLP · 3:20am Dec 27th, 2014
Hey Everypony. I just wanted to take the time to wish everyone a happy holiday season and to let everyone know that every reader of my stories means so much to me. With all the shit that's going on in my life it's nice to know that there is a community of mostly complete strangers that are some of the most supportive people ever. I think my troubles with home and college and my writing is giving me a bit of the Avatar effect. For those who don't know, the Avatar effect is a sense of depression one gets at realizing that utopian alien worlds and planes of existence are going to be forever out of their reach. And I have to admit, I would rather be in Equestria than the US...and that's why the community of the Brony fandom has been so important to me because it gives me that escape, no matter how brief. So I want to say thank you for supporting my work and just being the great people that you are.
