We’re Going to Animate the Wingfeather Saga!
This news has been a long time coming, dear readers, hence the many, many exclamation points which will most surely pepper this post. (!) My friend Chris Wall (VeggieTales, 3-2-1 Penguins), and I formed Shining Isle Productions (see what we did there?) in order to tell the story of the Wingfeather Saga in a multi-season […]

“Enjoyable and thought-provoking”—A Wingfeather review
Greetings, readers! Here is a snippet of a review for you to review. The character development of Janner, Tink, and Leeli makes this saga that much more enjoyable to read. … And it is in the struggles of each that you find yourself identifying. Fear, feeling unfit for a task, unwanted leadership, strength through weakness—all were “I’ve […]

Leeli and Nugget
Here’s Leeli and her little dog, Nugget, drawn by a reader named Emily. Note the detail on the crutch! I also love Nugget’s begging pose, and am very impressed that Emily even included the faint lines of Leeli’s collarbones. What a great drawing, Emily—thank you! I can almost imagine that these two are singing […]

A fearsome Fang
This is from Gabriel. Look at the determination on that face, the high-quality uplifted sword, and the pointy fangs just waiting to be put to hideous use. I love the armor—it reminds me of Storm Troopers. It’s clear from the faint pencil lines that a lot of thought and hard work went into making this picture just […]

Andrew and his kids don’t get snow nearly often enough, but they know exactly what to do with it when it arrives. Do you see that magical little cottage? It isn’t […]
