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.

Extra Story Likes, Happy Story News & Updates · 3:41pm May 1st, 2016

Okay, weird thing. Yesterday I noticed I have one or two more likes on all my stories that weren't there before and no indication in notifications of who gave them. I'm guessing they were from past days and probably weren't logged before now. It's nice to see them, I just wish I knew who they were from. Has this happened to anypony else?

Mad stupid happy that my favorite Sombra clop author Topside has resurfaced with not one but TWO more chapters for A Shadow in the Night and is back on track writing again. She even hit the featured box for a time at 11:00 p.m. Saturday night! Congrats, hon, and hope you can crank out more chapters and get back to your regular schedule. Check her out, my Sombraphile brethren. It is a GOOD story so far with actual story in it, not just the gratuitous clop we all know and crave =D

I've caught up with giving each ongoing story at least one if not two updates in April. If you missed any, here they are again:

1. The Mad Seeress of the North - updated 17th Apr 2016 with Chapter 7 - Illusion's Reality. The chapter before that, Mirror Lake, was uploaded April 8th.

2. Sombra of the Sith - updated 25th Apr 2016 with Chapter 3 - Preparations and the Great West.

3. The King's Mice - updated 30th Apr 2016 with Chapter 2 - Now the Worse News. This one timed out in a very peculiar way by accident. I posted the first part April 1st and the second part the last day of April. Not sure how that happened.

4. Frozen Shadows - updated 19th Apr 2016 with Chapter 5 - Past Abduction.

I'm doing a silly thing now where I'm logging my time spent writing and word counts in a gdocs spreadsheet, just to make sure I write every week as much as possible. If you're a nerd and want to see how prolific I've been (and be teased by some titles for projects no one has seen yet) here's the link.

My next project? My Mother's Day story entitled, "Troubled Crystal Heart". King Sombra, fearing he's losing the edge to his hardened heart and how that might cause his grip to weaken on the Crystal Empire, goes to the one creature for advice he never wanted to speak to again - his mother.

Premiering Mother's Day, Sunday May 8th.
