Victory Speech · 5:05am Nov 11th, 2012
First and foremost, I'd like to thank Celestia and Luna, and Rainbow Dash and Rarity, for their help in making this victory possible.
And I am honored, and privileged, to accept all of your votes to appoint me to the office of Featured Author. It is humbling, and something I could never have achieved without all of you. All of you, you readers; you did this. You made this happen. You decided that the path for the Feature Box was one of quality, adorkable shipfics. And together, we will move forward to that shining future.
A future where all of us have an equal chance to ship ALL the ponies...together.
Now, more on point, the whole driving force behind this story was for me to sell out and get followers. So hey, follow me! You know, if you liked what you read, and such. Because this is what I do, and there's only more to come!
Not all of it will be cutesy shipfics, but there's still ideas for those in the pipe, along with my half-dozen in-progress works. Just think of it this way; the more of you there are following me, the more of you can prod me to write faster!
I'll cut my pandering there, though. Seriously, thanks to everyone who read it. Those who liked and favorited it, as well, but I appreciate it being read at all, no matter how you come down on it; because stories are told only when someone is listening.
Huzzah!
I am following you for two reasons now:
One, your writing is actually pretty solid stuff.
Two, I have never seen someone be so blatant about their pandering, and even if it's sarcastic, that is still pretty ballsy, so... Applause all around.
I just saw that fic in the box. Good job, I know you've been longing for it for a while now.
