300+ followers! · 4:05am Sep 11th, 2022
Official celebratory post coming a bit late since this week's been pretty busy at work. Thank you to the 300+ people who like my stories enough that you want to follow me.
I still love ponies, but I would say it's no longer my "exclusive" fandom, as it once was.
As time has passed since I started watching MLP in 2019, I would say I've moved on to following other manga and TV series. And I also have lost some motivation to post stories here as the traffic on this site seems to be cooling. Yet it's only in this past year that I feel like I've gained what I truly was seeking from the brony fandom: friends. And for that I'm forever grateful for. The brony fandom has also been a springboard for me to discover more about my self-identity. And while it is a continual process of self-discovery, I feel like I'm finally making a start. As Fluttershy would say: baby steps.
But I suppose the brony fandom is like the Hotel California; you can log out any time you like, but you never leave the herd.
I do expect to come back occasionally to post MLP stories, and I do plan on going to a few conventions. Perhaps I'll get more inspiration when the Make Your Mark episodes come out.
Thank you all, and here's to the next 100.
Woohoo!
This late into the fandom, you're definitely one of the people whose work I've been happy to stumble across. Congrats on hitting 300+ followers!
Congrats! ππππ
