Wingfeather and the classics
Dr. Matt Hunter, a humanities teacher at a classical school, recently reviewed The Wingfeather Saga. In his review, he talks about the intersection between Wingfeather and the “classics”—especially the classics’ “great universal human themes”—and then says: This is what I was least prepared for: the heart-rending, the occasional choking back of tears for the beauty and truth conveyed […]

Checking in from the Warren
Greetings, Wingfeather friends! I’ve been on the road quite a bit lately, and with spring in full swing at the Warren there’s been no shortage of things to do. One of the residual benefits of my newly built Chapter House is that my computer stays out there in the evenings, mainly because I’m too lazy […]

Kickstarter Update #21: Mr. Jay Myers
I don’t know about you, but one of the Kickstarter stretch rewards I am most excited about is the Florid Sword/Shadowblade comic book. There’s no way that can be anything but awesome. The artist, Jay Myers, is excited about it, too. Even before the Kickstarter was over, he was playing around with character sketches. If you follow him […]

Scary stories for children
Sometimes readers ask questions about the scary themes in The Wingfeather Saga. The Black Carriage, something dreadful and sad and frightening, shows up right away in chapter 1, and many scary things happen throughout the series after that. One of the questions asked during the Kickstarter was about how these frightening scenes will be depicted on […]

Grey Fangs in the Ice Prairies
From Anita. Blue Sharpies and watercolors. This is a fascinating composition. I don’t think I’ve seen Sharpies and watercolors mixed this way before. I love the dimensionality, too—the way the clouds roil and the snow swirls—and the threatening calm in the foremost’s eyes. Dear readers, the drawings you send to Andrew are giving me a bit of […]
