GeneralDirection here! Brand new to the forums, and relatively new to MLP: FiM altogether. I think my journey up to this point has been somewhat similar to others. I first heard of the show through a friend of a friend, but initially dismissed it as a 'show for little girls' like so many others have. A couple of months later, I noticed several of my favourite YTP (If you don't know what it is, believe me, you're better off that way...) creators using the show as a source. So I decided to do some research on the show, and what I found surprised me. Then I started to watch the first episode...and here I am today! Finished all three seasons in two weeks. Could've finished it faster, but like most people I have school and work to go to...and I happen to value what little sleep I do get! After finishing the season 3 and watching numerous other fan videos, I wanted to try to join a community such as this one where I could share my interests with others without being insulted or rejected. I think you get the drift.
Just a quick bit about myself...currently living in Kamloops, BC, Canada, 19 years old, male, never moved out of Canada but I have moved around it quite a bit! I have a wide range of interests (besides MLP obviously ) that range from hiking, biking, and skiing to web design, computers in general, music, and writing. Yup, you guessed correctly, I absolutely love writing fiction, so you can bet that I will be working on something cool for those individuals that enjoy fan fiction. ^^ Don't ask for a timeline...I just started brainstorming a few weeks ago and laying the groundwork has always been the most difficult part for me. I'm sure I'll be seeing you all out on the rest of the forums soon! /)
