So where did I go?
8 years ago
It's weird. About 7-8 years ago, I thought I was pretty much done with the fandom, figured I'd matured enough and moved on...Yeah, I basically went a couple years without a fandom and then ended up orbiting the Brony community for awhile.
Before you ask, no I never truly counted myself among their numbers. Mainly because while the show itself is ok, I was more interested in the opportunity it set up. New world, interesting characters, and tons of possibility. As my last post pointed out, leaving PoE left me feeling pretty bad. So I kinda wanted an established universe to practice my writing on.
So yeah, I actually wrote several stories in the MLP universe. Most I didn't finish, but one I did and frankly, that made me feel good. Ironically enough, that story ended up being a bit rougher than some of my other works. One story was initially a group project but one by one, my fellow authors flaked out like complete assholes and left me holding the whole thing.
Interestingly enough, it was here that i finally learned what I really like doing. I like editing. I find it fun, I get to help other writers improve, and I get to help motivate them, to help them overcome that one flaw I lacked in my own works.
Fast forward the better part of a decade and here I am again. I may not write on my own, but I do wish to do some editing for the furry fandom.
