30 Day Fanfiction Meme, day 1!

My fanfic sempai, stariceling, invited me to join her in the 30 Day Fanfic challenge meme going around tumblr. I'm keeping my tumblr for my artwork and comics-related stuff, so I'm posting here instead. Yes, I plan to post every day. I will keep it under a cut, though, since I know almost no one here is interested in my fannish scribblings. ^^

Verily, Day 1!

1 – How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?

( Model horses, class assignments, a vivid dream, and finding fandom online. )
