My name is Matthew Penn (formerly known as NorthCrusader), and I'm just a guy who writes imaginary stories based on a children's animated series about little technicolor horses and is very proud of them. I like to write interesting stories, no matter the genre, and I always strive to be great, but I like to have fun sometimes. Some are silly, exciting, heartbreaking, and scary, and I hope you have a great time reading them.

Happy Thanksgiving · 9:27pm Nov 25th, 2021

I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.

I am going to publish the remaining chapters of The Tower of Doom as soon as I can. Due to my job and the holiday season, I am going to be very busy, so I am going to be a little slow on updates. I hope everyone is enjoying the story so far. And yes, it's based on a Goosebumps book (and television adaptation), but A Night in Terror Tower is one of my favorite Goosebumps stories. Retelling classic stories with ponies is too much fun not to do.
