//------------------------------// // A Word from the Author // Story: Books from Ponyville Library // by Graphite Scribble //------------------------------//         A Word from the Author         I have a serious problem. It all started last fall, when my good friend forced me, against my will, to watch PMVs. (Pony music videos, for the uninitiated.) Allow me to explain. I hated My Little Pony. I hated the very idea of ‘bronies’. This was me: “Nnh! That’s stupid! Why would anyone actually watch a little girl’s show? That makes my brain hurt from all the dumb! Waah!” Yeah. Things have definitely changed from that time. My good friend is now my best friend, who rescued me from a world outside Equestria. I have become a shameless brony, and the worst kind, too: a fanfiction writer. You see, I can’t see anything the same way now. Every time I close my eyes, I see candy-colored horses singing and dancing, and having their adorable, yet somehow profound adventures. I can’t stop. This is a cry of desperation. My hope is that by barfing all of this out like bad tuna, I can return to some form of normalcy. I know that won’t happen: especially with season 4 so close. But I must try, for the sake of who I once was... I... AAUGH! That’s better. Sorry, everypony, sometimes I go a little crazy. After all, I was always a weirdo, so why should this be any different? I recently took an Advanced Placement English course, and while it was mind-numbingly boring most of the time, some of the stories were decently entertaining. Now that I am a brony, I wonder how those old things measure up to the adventures of Twilight Sparkle, AJ, Pinkie Pie, Rarity and the rest? Could the two worlds ever... be united? One way to find out! --Your Faithful Author, Graphite Scribble
