Huh... · 2:50pm May 13th, 2017
Every time I post a new chapter for the tagged fic, I get a rash of up votes.
Not complaining, mind; I'm just trying to figure out why.
I don't know if it's the humor, the jokes in the chapter name, or Jake's personality.
Or maybe it's my tongue-in-cheek poke at FiM canon while remaining as true as possible.
Then there's my satirical approach. I'm poking fun at bronies- myself included, as there's at least a bit of me in Jake -as much as I am the world of ponies. I guess bronies like that; sometimes, the best way to know you love a community is to be able to laugh at it, especially when you're a part of it.
In hindsight, I think I should have done a story like this as my first; as much as I love my other fics, this one is getting significant traction.
I originally thought it was a fluke, but at 175 up votes, it's obviously not.
Again, not complaining; I'd be happy with just one.
Take care bronies and pegasisters; I'm off to kick some more Reaper and Cerberus ass.
You've got a story with:
a fun premise
decent grammar
an amusing character
regular updates
Makes sense to me you'd have 200+ likes. Another couple of updates and you'll get there easily.
