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!


    (image by Evehly)

    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.

Are you ready for Season Six? ‘cause I ain’t! · 9:07pm Mar 23rd, 2016


There seems to be a lot of crap going on at the moment with me…stuff I let pile up and stuff coming up. While easily more than half my followers and friends hope against hope that King Sombra has something to do the Crystal Empire’s weather mishap, I aggressively ignored putting hope in my heart while keeping busy on FIMFiction.

I’ve always had a problem with pacing myself.

Proofreading
GryphonStar5678 – I’ve started proofreading Endless Time, Or Forever End, uh, can you tell? Ten pages proofed in a 100+ page story is a start, right?

Pixel_Spark – my sweet fellow Sombraphile. I did the 1st proof of chapter one in From Darkness to Light. Another go by in printed form and I’ll be ready to hit chapter two. PM me the gdocs link, will ya?

Askre – I’ve got tonight after 8:00 my time and all of tomorrow off. I swear on a stack of the King’s crystals I’m gonna start proofing Possession in the Crystal Empire in that time. Not just because I gotta get out from under all this proofreading, but because it is AWESOME and I want to read it AGAIN!

The Patreon Project
A couple of you peeps know I am working on getting a Patreon account launched. I did a soft launch yesterday (the link is in on my profile page's sidebar - check it out!) and last night I recorded an intro. The audio to the video of it is actually done. One take, done perfect the first time. Damn, I'm AWESOME! It should be up tonight after I tie up a quick version without images on the production side.

Story Updates
Slow and slower. Because of reasons above and scrambling to figure out what the hell has suddenly jumped in priority in my queue with Princess “freakishly large wings” aka Flurry Heart’s premiere in THREE DAYS. Crap. I better get writing. Later, slaves!

Yeah I noticed the changes. Thanks for the work so far. And I'm sorry I know mine is the toughest one. I'll try to find ways to make it easier on you.

No worries, you'll get it done when you get it done. :pinkiehappy:

I ready for season 6. Thirteen more hours!!!!!

At least I won't add to your workload. My stuff doesn't need poofreading.

The Patreon Project: Yes, but are you as AWESOME as you want to be?
