Interview with FolkloreBrony
by Nailah
“Alright, now tell me my dear friend, what inspired your username?
Response: It was more of a spur of the moment thing than anything else. I was reading Lord of the Rings at the time, so I took the word ‘Folklore’ to heart and then added ‘brony’, which is terribly unimaginative on my part.
“What drew you into Mlp?
Response: It was actually Pen Stroke’s ‘Past Sins’ that introduced me to Mlp. I wasn’t even aware of the show until then and didn’t bother watching any of the episodes until about a year after I read the story.
“Who is your favorite pony and why?
Response: It’s actually a contest between Twilight and Trixie. Similarly, they both tend to be quite comical, what with Trixie and her blissful ignorance and Twilight being ironically humorous. I also admire Twilight for her intelligence and drive, a quality I find lacking in many people these days. Trixie’s the opposite. She’s incredibly silly and I adore her.
“Favorite episode and why?”
Response: I don’t know if I really HAVE a favorite episode. If I were to name anything off the top of my head, I’d say it’s between ‘The Cutie Pox’ and ‘The One Where Pinkie Knows’, both because they made me laugh into wheezing the first time I watched them. Talking fancy, indeed!
“What inspires you to write?”
Response: Oof, bit of a loaded question, there? It’s actually different between ‘Emerald Fires’ and ‘A Nightmare in Eidolon’. My first story EF was more so out of fun because I wanted to take a crack at it. Probably a good thing too since it was an absolute DISASTER. Most won’t remember, but I actually wrote and uploaded chapter 2 BEFORE chapter 1!
ANiE however, is more emotional. I’ve explained in the first chapter that I wrote it within the emotional drive I had obtained after stressing over trying to move out of an abusive household for 2 and a half years with no success. I’m still living there, but I’ve repurposed that pain into an emotionally charged story that I’m far more proud of. It also helps that the story is written better and has 2 editors.
“Give us the background of the author! Tell us all about you. Well in a short summary.
Response: I’m currently living in Farmington, Missouri studying at Mineral Area College with an Arts degree. I want to be either a scriptwriter, animator, or comic-book illustrator. I live with my father begrudgingly and spend most of my time reading, writing, and doing artwork when I’m not working. I’m probably best designated as the group gossiper with the guys I hang out with as I have the best stories, either screwing around or smoking Satan’s Ceaser Salad. I’m incredibly cynical and dry-witted and I take a no-bull*%$# attitude towards currently social matters. I’m also looking forward to DOOM Eternal and the next 5 episodes of Genndy Tertakovsky’s Primal.
I also love It’sAGundam on Youtube. The man speaks my language.
“Is there anything else you'd like to say?
Response: Reality’s an illusion. The universe is a hologram. Buy gold! Byeee!
Thank you for allowing me the pleasure of interviewing you, you have truly been a pleasure to talk too. I hope you continue being awesome.
