One Year · 11:26pm Mar 2nd, 2013
Hi everypony, Scarlet Lightning here.
I know you haven't seen anything new from this account in forever and I am sorry for that. I have been focasing on my art and school; and Key Tapper has had even more on his plate than me.
But enough about that. Today is a very special day for me. One year ago I watched the episode Winter Wrap Up for the first time. Up until then I hadn't had much cause to appreciate the show as more than another good TV show. But the whole episode and the song in particular struck a cord with me and from that moment on I was a Brony.
About two weeks after that I was caught up with the airings and watching "A Canterlot Wedding". After the Season 2 Final I wanted to find a way that I could fit into the community and give back some of the happiness I had felt through the show. I had heard Paleo mention on an episode of Brony Breakdown something called "Fan Fics". I have never been a part of a Fandom before Ponies, so I had no idea what he was talking about. But a quick search on EQD lead me to FiMfiction.
I started reading fanfics almost non-stop and I even started to write down a premis for my own fic. By now I had created my OC and was looking for someone to help me with editing. So when I was wating for Saberspark to start his "Go Time" stream, I asked the chat (of about 4 people) if any of them wanted to read what I had. That is how I met Key Tapper.
And that is also why this account has been so stale lately. I started writing to try and find my niche in the community. I though we where doing quite good here, and we where. But then, after the Cutie Art Crusaders started on EFR I got into vectoring. At the same time Key Tapper was stating to write his own fic on top of his piano practice. So we kind of stopped writing for my fic.
Again I am sorry to you all for that, but we want to redo it at some point, we just don't know when that will be.
So that is basically the whole story of me as a Brony. And that was just one year. With Season 4 confirmed and all the things to look forward to, I can't wait to see what the next year holds.
Brony on
