Equestria (Daily), ho! · 7:19pm Oct 24th, 2017
Yes, that's right, I've gone and joined the Dark Side.
No, it's not like you may be thinking. I simply submitted Insecurities to them. And after a bunch of work, it got accepted! Yay!
Now, I know some of you may have mixed feelings about the place... Very mixed feelings. ...but it's still a very active, fairly prominent site for pony news and things. And as I've been told many times, Insecurities deserves all the exposure it can get. I was lazy about finally doing it, but I figured that since some of my artwork got a huge bump through Equestria Daily, Insecurities would get a boost too.
The joke's on me though; the story got only like 50 new views from this. Oh, well.
I'm still glad I did it though. The story's been revamped a bit and improved. The punctuation is solidified, some things have been clarified and expanded on, some phrasing was improved, and I spent way too much time agonizing over whether particular points of the story were saying exactly what I wanted them to. So... worth it!
Now, back to my real work.
Congrats!
Congratulations!
Grats!
Bravo Zulu!
[That's NavySpeak (and, by extension, MarineSpeak) for, "Well Done!" ]

You were no doubt basking in all the adulation that an EqD feature brings.

I gather it started with signal flags in the old days of naval operations. Leaving aside the Wikipedia article, the first time I heard "Bravo Zulu" was from my Junior ROTC instructor in high school, thirty-something years ago. I think we can safely say that it's a traditional synonym for, "Good on you!"
In any case, congratulations!
