It has officially been three years! · 7:48am May 16th, 2016
That's right. Exactly three years ago today, I uploaded Brushed Away on this website, which was not only my first story on Fimfiction, but my first story well... ever. And in the three years I've been on this site, I've gotten a huge amount of fans, friends, collaborators, and so much more. And for that, I have nothing but my utmost thanks to everyone who's been following me and my work.
With that being said, I think the past year alone has been the most eventful in my life. Even though my life has been on a completely unexpected track since joining this site, in the past twelve months I have:
-Gotten a new job, which is not only better for my writing habits, but is also an overall better work environment (easier workload, better pay, etc.)
-Done quite a bit of traveling, both by car and by plane.
-Attended an open casting call for Survivor in Wichita, where I met previous winners like Bob Crowley and Mike Holloway. (No callbacks yet, but I'm determined to get on that show no matter what)
-Finished my largest story to date, which is totaled at over 250 thousand words.
-Have written a total of over 800,000 words worth of fanfiction for this website.
and most notably for myself...
-I finally came out to my Father, which gave me the courage to be open about myself for the rest of my family.
-And for the past ten months, I have been in a committed and loving long-distance relationship with Storm Butt. I've already met him in person twice now, with a third planned next month. Not only is he one of the greatest things to happen in my life, but he was also the reason I got into writing in the first place. His stories inspired me to write my own romance, and it's mind-boggling to think that doing so would eventually bring us together for a romance of our own. I can't think of anything more fulfilling from this year than that, and I'm eternally grateful to have someone like him in my life.
With that being said, I am officially announcing my Third Annual AMA! Got any questions to ask me? Whether it be about my writing, my life, or any random thoughts that pop into your head, be sure to ask them in the comments below! Much like the last two times I did this, I will wait 24 hours, and then make a follow-up post with all of my answers. So go ahead!
(Also, here are my answers from my first and second AMAs, just in case I already answered a question you guys were planning to ask.)
Congrats on it all man.
So, AMA
1)How old were you when you came out? (I ask because I was quite a bit older than most when I did)
2)Who/what do you consider your 'personal OC'?
3)And Last... Would you consider allowing said Personal OC to appear as a 'cameo' in a story by someone else. Under the condition they used your desc of personality and such?
Have you given any thought to writing professionally?
Or maybe pulling a move like a 50 Shades of Grey and tweaking your brushed away series to something that would not cause copyright infringement and selling it?
So far in your brushed away series you have mentioned diapers twice any chance of getting a fanfic with them in it? Wink wink nudge nudge give you puppy dog eyes which is very hard to do because I am a lion
so are there any non Brony conventions you plan on attending like anime ones or furry ones?
And lastly would you ever consider coming to the Sturgis motorcycle rally in Sturgis South Dakota where Sturgis which normally has a population of 5000 becomes home to half a million bikers for one week in August every year?
If you want I can post pictures of me having a Twilight Sparkle plushie at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Living in South Dakota does kind of have its benefits in a way.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmkay! You asked for it!
Why do we bake cookies but cook bacon? What is the color of a mirror? Can I see that puppy in the window, the one with the waggly tail?
Also... I'd like to hear your opinion on this

Beautiful, no? Well drawn, no complaints that way. But the content... okay, how does a child know that sort of thing, and would I be a asshole for asking? Are such things as personal behavior and positions on and made by those of the lgbt community beyond the realm of, as the artist called me, outsiders to question? That is not to say that, for example, the actions of the board of directors or Canvas's dad, or any other asshole of that measure, are justified, but does questioning positions made by lgbt, and I JUST LOVE this little Orwellian tidbit, invalidate their experiences?
And no, before you all get upset with me, I am not questioning that grown adults are transgendered, I'm question the validity of a child putting on a sun dress then his family immediately making an assumption.
Ok I lied I have one more. Have you ever considered doing something with mlp silver-quill the fandoms only hipogryph reviewer? seeing as how you have a story about a gryphon and a pony falling in love.
