WE'VE REACHED A WHOLE YEAR OF WRITING!
And let me say, it was quite the successful year! I never expected for me to ever get this many followers or story views, and I'm very, very happy to see that each and every one of you have stuck with me all the way through!
So then... I guess I should give a bit of a biography or history or something? Well, the first fic I ever wrote was the worst piece of crap filled with plot holes and Alicorn Mary Sue's, and I, unknowing to what would happen, submitted it to Equestria Daily. Then, they recommended me to this site, and I joined it instead, as it is far nicer and much more lenient on its fic rules.
I started out with "Derpy Hooves and the Quest for the Chocolate Muffin" and "A Mirror to Another World". Neither of them were incredibly successful, but it give me a few followers at the very least. Then, I came up with the idea of making a story centered around a poor janitor in Canterlot Castle, and each chapter would talk of his duties for the day, and most of his jobs would be hilarious. While the story only ever gave me about four or five followers, and about 17 likes (which is still pretty good) it did give me my best friend on the site, StormDaDrains, or as he's now known, Storming Skies.
After I finished up Janitor, I felt it best to start searching for some more help when it came to the creation of my fics. So, I sought out an editor and artist to accept requests to edit and draw for my fics. Most editors seemed like total asswipes to me, and they completely hated the fics that I had created and refused to edit them. But then I found the perfect editor, WhatTheMoo who I first used services on my Farnsworth fic, but as you already know, he is taking a short break from editing for reasons he hasn't told me. So then, with a wonderful editor to edit my stories to make them not such pieces of crap, it was time to venture out for an artist to draw readers' eyes to my fic with cover art. This task was much easier. After looking up about two artists, I found Twilove, who is always very happy to accept a request from me and always finishes it as soon as she can and does an outstanding job on it. Go check both Twilove and WhatTheMoo out! They're awesome!
So, after all that time, here we are. Still writing Farnsworth and not doing much. I've been procrastinating on writing, I truly have. There's no denying it. But, I shall resume my writing today, to celebrate my achievement of writing for one whole year!
Thank you all so much! Have a great summer and keep on typing away at your keyboard!
