700!? · 12:16am Jan 18th, 2015
Last June, I was in the midst of writing another story that had experience mild success. I had been enthralled by that.That story had been my first, but I felt like I really wanted to start another one. After coming up with several ideas (some of which I still want to do) I settled on Ponyville, USA.
The idea wasn't anything too special, just a POE story. I didn't expect too much attention, particularly since it would only be my second story. My goal was to reach 50 followers of the story, with a second goal of maybe even reaching 100 by its completion.
To my surprise, the story was featured, and by the end of the first day I surpassed 100 likes. Now, 7 months later, there's more than 700, and could not be more flattered.
Just wanted to say thanks for all those who have followed my story, who comment the things they enjoyed (and even the things they didn't. It may give me a heart attack nearly every time but I'm still grateful.)
My story has reached roughly halfway, and I'm excited for the rest of the journey. I think the best is yet to come.
So yet again, thank you so much!
And it's been fun reading the story and the interactions that you put in every chapter. Congratulations!
You're welcome. :P (Sarcastic tongue). Can everypony do me a favor and tell Rockie (I just decided to call Rox that) To be patient next time? He'll know what it means.
don't be so modest your story is truly awesome and practically unique
Rarely stories POE are settled like this and so well developed
can't wait to see the other half of the journey
No problem! This is a great story. In fact, this is exactly how I expect the government to react. The characters are great, the story is believable, and the introduction to the ponies and the circumstances surrounding their appearance in our world is really intriguing. Keep up the great work, dude!
