Well now. · 12:23am Oct 9th, 2012
It took forever but I finally have an account here.
I came here for two reasons: To be able to comment on - and keep track of via favorites - my favorite fics, and to post a story that's been floating around in my head for a year and a half. Well, it's not written yet, but I'm making some progress. The first three chapters are up as "Isaac's Storm" on Fanfiction.net, but I'm about to do a total rewrite from the ground up before posting it here to Fimfiction.
See, I started the fic way back in June 2011, having just been in the fandom for a few weeks and having read just one or two fics. Prior to Isaac's Storm, I hadn't ever attempted to write a fanfic in my entire life, and thus my lack of experience shows in the 3 chapters I have. Furthermore, I was barely familiar with the show or the fandom when I started writing, and after well over a year I'm ready to re-start the story with all I've learned. Not to mention, the things that went on in Season Two, which was but a strong rumor when I started the fic way back when.
In short, it's a HIE fic with action, adventure, war, humor, suspense, exploration, character development, and just about everything including the kitchen sink. It's going to be near 100,000 words when completed, probably significantly more, but that's going to be a LONG time off. See, I realize that HIE fics are already considered rather low in the fanfiction world, and they have to be extremely good to be considered a good fic, so I have to find some prereaders and accumulate a lot of feedback so I can improve enough to bring the story in my head to life. In the coming days I'll try to have the beginning rewritten and posted here for feedback and critique, which will help shape the future of the tale. Watch this space!
(And yes, if anyone actually happens to stumble across this page, I am the same EquusStorm/Horsesnhurricanes that's nearly everywhere all across the Internets. Weather, tall trees, death metal, and roller coasters ftw, Flitter is best pony.)
