Hello again!
I joined a little while back, maybe two years ago, and after eight months of fun, life got sticky, and I disappeared.
But I'm back, and glad to communicate with this gentle group yet again.
I collected My Little Ponies as a kid in the mid-80's
I remember how much the blurbs on the back of the cartons influenced me. Using the details in these blurbs, I crafted a landscape in the middle of my bedroom out of trash and sparkles, and then a whole mesh of stories grew up from my imagining what my ponies would do and say to each other. It substituted for the friends I had lost when I changed schools that year.
I've since written a fantasy novel for fun, and in retrospect, it resembles what I had done for my ponies on many levels.
Now, I also promised myself as a teen that I would one day sell them as collectors' items. That time may be upon me. We'll see
What I want to do first is to make another Pony Landscape, and take portraits of each pony to publish in a little book with their original blurbs.
