An Apple Alone Chapter 1 Rewrite! · 9:27pm Dec 28th, 2011
Chapter 1 of An Apple Alone was the first piece of fan fiction I ever wrote. As I improved (at least I think I've improved) and subsequent chapters took shape, I started wanting to rewrite the initial chapter. After talking with others, including an EqD prereader, I decided to give it a rewrite. I went over the original content with a fine tooth comb. On top of that (literally) I added a new beginning to help emphasize the Apple family ties and how Apple Bloom's life actually did make a sudden shift. I hope you all find the additions and changes worthwhile and see them as an actual improvement!
I also changed the names of the first two chapters. At first I thought I was going to stick with a company/management motif, but quickly decided to go with a more "coming of age" theme. Hope you find these changes acceptable as well!
I must say that I've really enjoyed this story so far. I don't want to be one of 'those' ponies who constantly badger for updates, but I will say that I do look forward to more Applebloom soon.
