Last Saturday, I vended at my first outdoor event of the year (and yes: my first outdoor event since the disasters of October): Harry’s Hay Days in Grandview, Missouri. It was not a disaster, but nor did it compare to the glowing success of my first street fair a year ago.

Plans for May
This April was about what I expected after the high point that was March. The first week was consumed with preparations for my excursion to TFF, the second week with the trip itself, and the last couple trying to reorganize myself. May is going to be one heck of a comeback–at least if I haveContinue reading “Plans for May”
Harry’s Hay Days
Happy Monday to everyone! Hope your week is off to a good start. Just wanted to remind everyone that I will be at Harry’s Hay Days on Main St. in Grandview, MO from 10A.M. to 4P.M. on Saturday, May 3rd. Look for the Bluedrake Books banner. As usual, I’ll be offering some special deals toContinue reading “Harry’s Hay Days”
When Inspiration Strikes
We all know the feeling. We could be going about our daily lives, doing nothing out of the ordinary when suddenly it happens. What triggers it could be any number of things: something we hear on the radio, a dream, or simply the workings of our subconscious mind. Whatever the cause, inspiration can strike anywhereContinue reading “When Inspiration Strikes”
Return to Dallas: TFF 2025
Last weekend, I returned to Texas Furry Fiesta, once again entering the Artist Alley lottery on a day by day basis, since I was once again not accepted ahead of time. This was my first time ever coming back to a venue I have sold at before, which makes for some interesting comparisons.
Plans for April
March turned out to be a very productive month, both personally and professionally. The latter included progress on a couple of projects (if not as much as I would have liked), reaching 50 outstanding submissions (which I’ve not managed in years!), and of course, attending the local Luck & Laughter vending event right here inContinue reading “Plans for April”
Luck & Laughter?
This past Saturday (March 15th), I attended the first Luck & Laughter shopping event at the Sonesta Select Hotel in Kansas City, Missouri on behalf of Bluedrake Books. And to put it plainly…it was a bit of a dud. Why and how this happened I shall try to dissect below.
Event: Luck & Laughter
Howdy all! Just a quick reminder that I will have a booth at the Luck and Laughter vendor fair and raffle this Saturday, March 15th at the Sonesta Select Hotel in Kansas City, MO! Admission is free to the public, so stop on by and browse some books and other fine wares (I tend toContinue reading “Event: Luck & Laughter”
Plans for March
February has been a much better month than January. After finishing up at Anthro Expo, I did my best to reestablish a routine. While not entirely successful, I nevertheless managed to make progress on a number of projects, particularly the ongoing Knights of Aralia saga. This month should see even more stability (hopefully). Project goalsContinue reading “Plans for March”

Hello again, everyone, and welcome to my first real post of 2025! Today I’ll be reviewing yet another experience as a vendor, this time at Norman, Oklahoma’s own furry convention: Anthro Expo.
