Bardsworth

A couple of things. First, if you’re interested in stocking up on some Bardsworth merchandise either for yourself or as gifts for the holidays, we’re having a sale on select items in the Fairy Magik store. We got some cool swag in there, so if you’ve never checked it out, now is the time!

Secondly, the two ladies in today’s comic (10/4/12) are cameos that I’ve had planned for a while. Sarah (pink hair) and Jenn (purple hair) are very dear friends of ours, and I always thought they’d fit in well with the Bardsworth world. They are kindred spirits – writers, artisans, entrepeneurs, and – most importantly – My Little Pony fans. And yes, they do have pink and purple hair respectively. Be sure to check out their website, The Fable Tribe, for some awesome goodies, and check out Sarah’s website for her writing.

By the way, they do actually have so much tea in their house that they could probably open a successful tea shop.

I tend to forget that I have an actual blog built into this site now, and because of that forgetfulness I tend not to plug my other projects as much.  So I’m going to correct that.

Some of you know that Katie and I run a business called Fairy Magik.  We make and sell fairy artwork and fairy-themed crafts, as well as (new to this year) bath and body products.  A few months ago we decided to start doing big monthly updates at the start of each month.  The update for August included the addition of pendants with our artwork, as well as three new art prints (pin-ups inspired by characters from My Little Pony).  You can see it all at our Etsy store.

As with any Bardsworth-related merch that you by, anything that you purchase through Fairy Magik helps to support all of our projects – Fairy Magik, Bardsworth, and my books (and soon Katie’s as well).  So take a look and maybe you’ll see something you like – or something someone else you know might like.
