Calm Wind


We writers do not speak. We do not hear. We have no songs. We have no pictures. We only have scripture. From words we bring images. From words we bring emotion. From words we bring life.

1000 followers! (and how far we've come!) · 10:07pm Aug 1st, 2016

Well... we finally did it. We finally hit those four digits.

I say WE because i certainly can't follow myself 1000 times :derpytongue2:

I never thought I'd get to this point, not once in a million years. I joined this site back in October of 2012 as just some guy with some ideas looking for feedback... thinking 'eh... maybe some people will like it" and now im sitting here with 1000 followers and counting.

It's kind of funny, isn't it? How many times have i said "this will never happen" only for it to happen anyway later? Just like how i always woefully underestimate how things will turn out in my stories, i did the very same thing when i started, never even expecting to get over 100 followers... yet here we are... imagine that :derpytongue2:

However... I will never claim to have made it this far alone. What keeps me going day in and day out, constantly sitting down and typing out chapters? You guys do. I have the urge to write, but the support is what really makes it happen. I got this far because of YOU... and don't you ever forget that. :rainbowdetermined2:

My time here on fimfiction has been amazing. And every single one of you has made the all the effort and time put in worthwhile. It has done wonders for my writing and my confidence in my writing, and while the crazytrain is nowhere near stopping, i will never EVER forget how important my time here has been for me and what i love to do. SO LETS PUNCH THAT THROTTLE TO THE MAX AND KEEP THIS CRAZY TRAIN ROLLING! :pinkiecrazy:


But how about we look back and see how far we've come getting to this point?

Let me be the first to congratulate you!:pinkiehappy: So... Congrats, man!

Well deserved! Congratulations!! :pinkiehappy:

Oh my god :rainbowderp:

I apologise, but that is literally my reaction as I remember you having a lot less:twilightsheepish: congratulations!!!!!!:yay:

You know, considering you said let's keep this Crazy Train rolling, I feel obligated to say this... ALL ABOARD!!! (Mad cackle):derpytongue2:

You officially have your own legion.

Congrats man, you deserve it!

And now, next up on Fimfiction FM is Celebrate Good Times. This one goes out to Calm Wind!

I remember back in the day which was a wednesday before I had an account on FiMFic I read Head in the Clouds as it was still being written. Then I committed the grievous act of... dare I say it.... I FORGOT ABOUT IT OK? THERE! I SAID IT! :raritydespair:

Ehem. Anyway. Fast forward, I make an account and to my delight I find out the story, and the series is still going, and I learn of just how awesome this big dope really is.

Congrats big guy, looking forward to much much more!

Leave the arena now and rest. You've earned it!







So OG I didn't even have an account

First story I ever read by you: Falling In Love Quietly. I don't regret reading it. I will never regret reading it. That story marked a massive change in my life and I experienced that change with a great person like you.

Congrats.

The Great Underestimater has hit 1000? Booyah! You deserve every one of them! :pinkiehappy:

Congratulations! You rightfully deserve every one of your followers! :pinkiehappy:

Congrats brother! You now have more people following you than went to my highschool :rainbowlaugh:

Did you hear that? That was the sound of my mind blowing

Congratulations Calm. And here's to the next thousand.

Good job dude. I really like everything Twister had, is, and will do in your story. Keep it up man!

You've come far, O great Calm. I appluad you. You've made a lot of things happen to different people, most notably getting a group together that probably would brush each other off as other random readers and never really talk. Now we're all the bestest of friends, and I can't imagine life without any of them. There are people who spend years on a site and never make close friends, that would be me if I didn't meet you (because that is my case with DA). Thank you for bringing us all together and giving us this great experience. I couldn't have come this far without you. :twilightsmile:

Congrats!!

I remember reading this story even before I got a Fimfiction account. Actually, I remember that the reason I even made a Fimfiction account was so that I could follow you and your story.

It has been an amazing experience getting to know fellow readers and reading this throughout all the twists and turns and obstacles, solving the mysteries and—ok, I'll stop now…

But really, you deserve it!

Perfect opportunity to celebrate this by creating a discord server dedicated to this timeline Woo, congrats!

I've seen worse writers get more and better ones get less, yet I believe that with your perseverance you definitely wholly deserved this achievement.

Nice work.

(and you even did it without my contribution :D)

It is surely long overdone by now, but I have to go for it:i426.photobucket.com/albums/pp349/enzymeF/Setup/GIFs/its-over-9000.gif
I regret nothing! :pinkiecrazy::derpytongue2::rainbowwild:
