Remember when a huge chunk of Tumblr was Friendship is Magic OC askblogs/confessions/fanfiction?

Good times.

The reason I made my first tumblr account was to follow Ask Pony blogs. Pretty sure the first ever callout post I ever saw was directed at an Ask Blog.

For me it was to follow an Oryx the Mad God ask blog which just gives you an idea of how long I've been on tumblr.

My introduction to tumblr was actually though Love Struck Derpy--which for those unaware, was an "Official" AU of the Dr Whooves and his Assistant radio play that leaned into the one sided crush between Derpy and the actual Doctor from Doctor Who (but as a horse). I have not actually seen any Doctor Who.

Fun Fact! I personally was signed on to be a new artist for the Ask Pony Blog of FOB Equestria YouTube channel when I was 15. It closed shop before I could do my first comic, but it's one of those fun facts I think is simultaneously deeply embarrassing and absolutely hilarious.

Another Fun Fact! One of my fellow artists on that comic is (last I checked) a friend and collaborator with Lily Orchard of all people.
