    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.

Another non-Sombra story in the works - inspired by a Thorax and Spike story · 6:39pm Dec 16th, 2017

-Having all the stars align to get my writing jump-started again is a blessing - but not necessarily to the backlog of all the King Sombra stories I want to write. While I am working more on those than I have in the last three months, there is another.

Besides having a taste for bad stallions, I like a good sad/tragic yarn. I have been following a particularly intriguing Thorax/Spike story this past year (Grief is the Price we Pay) which has been challenging my own limits as a writer and in how I perceive where I am and where I want to be (and grow) in writing and on this 'site in general.

It's time I stopped coasting - which had turned into backsliding. I cannot say much as to how it will get to the endpoint Tale Weaver and I envisioned for it, but "Eaten Alive" may just be the first non-Sombra story I write under this pen name. It picks up a year after the events of Chapters 89-90 (yes, 89-90! upon the death of Thorax - all because there are so many readers of that story that want and NEED Twilight Sparkle and Spike to never reconcile their friendship because that would be so much more REALISTIC than the alternative.

Will keep you posted on the progress and updates of Eaten Alive as they happen. Right now chapter one is written and I anticipate more will be coming soon.

Peace out and remember to always

Hail King Sombra!
