State of the Empire – 9/16/18
King Sombra took the day off because it’s Tale Weaver’s birthday, so the State of the Empire is being brought to you by none other than my second favorite pone – Rockhoof! So…I try not to get irritated by bloggers on my feed on FIMFiction, but once in a while […]
Read MoreState of the Empire – 9/9/18
So where the Tartarus have I been? So the last time I did one of these things was FIVE MONTHS AGO. Urgh. Okay, so here’s a State of the Empire to bring everypony up to speed. As those that watch the homepage horsewords written count for the year know, I’ve […]

At 7 chapters and over 16,500 words, I think it is safe to say my new story is far enough along it is viable and will become a thing published in the near future months. Called, “Shadow of the Sun”, it is set in the world of Equestria Girls and […]
