Hail King Sombra


We are all just stories in the end. Official scribe to his Royal Highness King Sombra of the Crystal Empire. His tales are as varied as they are poignant, sad and bittersweet. Remember them well.

    Evil Daylight, How DARE you interrupt my writing!


    I see you, evil, approaching sun, soon to encroach upon my cool, dim sanctuary of shade. I will write until your unwelcome, burning presents invades my domain. Then I will retreat to the safety of my darkened studio.

    The King (and Nyx) are Back!

    I've been gone a long time and I did the one thing I hated that other writers whose work I cared about did - leaving and dropping off the face of Equestria without a trace.

    For that, I apologize.

    SPOILER for the new season of MLP G5

    Okay, I REALLY want to put a pic here, but if ponies are going to SCREAM that it shows up in their feed and they got spoiled, I don't want to hear about it.

    So...apparently Celestia and Luna are shown in the new episode of MLP G5 that just dropped. WTF? I want to talk about it, so if you don't mind hearing about this new development, let me know in the comments.

Four Years Today · 5:34am Dec 5th, 2018

So...today is my 4-year anniversary on FIMFiction and I couldn't be happier about being here. I've made some amazing friends, and seen two of them come to my neck of the planet so we could hang together and have fun. That and the reading the fantastic King Sombra stories here and contributing to his epic-ness by writing has made it all worthwhile.

This past year saw the creation of my website to honor him, hailkingsombra.com, and our Sunday ritual of getting together on a livecast over on Picarto.tv nearly every week to encourage each other's writing and be there for each other when times get tough. I took the plunge and wrote in depth about the last character in the world I thought I could do in character - Shining Armor and pushed myself in ways I hadn't achieved in writing before.

I've written A LOT of horsewords each year I've been here - even in 2018 when my writing came to a screeching halt due to the rehabilitating of my back in October. I am fighting to get back to writing on a regular basis, and while it's hard and painful and I get discouraged and frustrated at times, I will never give up until I make it a reality.

Here's hoping to make that a reality in this new, fourth year.
