Dear EdwardJ, q97randomguy here. I just rediscovered this story, and guess what...

....

I'm here to thank you.
For what, you might ask?

For introducing me to the wonderful world of fanfiction. I had been avoiding it like the plague, mainly because I didn't want to see authors abusing (read: badly writing) the mane 6. (Also because I was horribly afraid I would be inexorably drawn in, which I was. I'm currently at 9.8 Million words read, which I thank/blame you for.)

After seeing that your story involved exactly none of the mane 6, I decided to risk it. Given that you're reading this, you already know how it went.

I also need to thank you for getting me two new friends. I would've never met them without your story. I also would've never found out that I actually can write a story that other people can read. I'd always seen that as something that was an impossible goal, but... just look at me now. (Looking not required. It is, however, welcomed.)

I'll be faving this now, as well as getting back to reading it. Just so that subsequent comments don't catch you off-guard, I give almost any story I like a cursory editing job. Seeing as how you have an illustrious team of prereaders/editors, I don't expect that you have much to worry about. I'm looking forward to getting back into this story.
Gratefully yours,
q97randomguy

I've been sitting here for about three hours now trying to figure out what to say. To think that something I wrote inspired someone else to read more fiction as well as become a writer themselves...I am at a loss for words, and I usually have a lot of those. When someone says that a writer's work is worth the time to read, it is a compliment greater than anything else that could be said. What you have given me is more than that, and I really don't know how to take that. I mean, I've never been good at taking regular, ordinary compliments to begin with, so...

Thank you. Truly. It feels like anything that I might say would fall short of what should be said. I am truly humbled, and I hope that, wherever else the consequences of this may lead you, you find enjoyment in it.

I'll keep writing, and I'll try not to let you down.
