Back at the Castle: Weekly Update

It has been a whirlwind week, ending with the Myth & Magic Masquerade Ball at the EMP Museum.  What a great event!  We had a live-action quest for everyone to go on and I was a the very enigmatic and mysterious fairy princess that got to help the LARPers on their way.  They gave me the answer to the riddle and I gave them the next clue.  Very fun event with amazing costumes and special guests.

Thus we begin the week of prepping for Canterbury Renaissance Faire in Silverton, OR.  Human Magical (science) supplies, packing more books and product to be mailed before I'm gone for over a week, paperwork to get off to the Red Tape of Bureaucracy chimera, food to have prepared, trailers to secure, wow - the list is incredible.

Two major tasks this week will be to apply for a loan so that I can fund the main portion of the Feasibility Study (that baby troll is pretty hungry), as well as begin a draft on the Coupon-Fairy Fundraiser.  We now have ~15 Vendors signed up, and I hope to gain some more this weekend. :)

The Troll-o-Meter has in fact been rising, and every penny of course helps offset the first of our major monetary requirements for the Castle Project.  I feel encouraged and excited to be going forward, no matter how fast or slow - every step is closer!

Hope to see everyone at Canterbury!

OMGosh! It is only Monday and this week is set on zoom! I'll be flying out to Aunties Bookstore in Spokane on Wednesday for a 10:30am reading of my book.  Bring the kiddos if you're in the area!

On Thursday, I have Faeries and Elves Camp for which I've planned some fun activities and am looking forward to leading the parade of magical wee people around the neighborhood and then *whoosh*, back to the Emerald City for a birthday party and a late night appearance at the EMP Museum for their Myth & Magic Masquerade Ball!

I am really hoping to see a great turnout from the LARP, CosPlay and general geek/fantasy/Sci-fi community!  It should be a good time for all. :)

There will be a quest for adventurers, costumes galore, delicious food, drink, knights and high fun until the early hours of morn! I cannot even express how excited and honored I am to be a part of this particular event for the very first time. :)

All that being said...I also bring to you this week's new Giveaway from Faeries for Nature! In celebration of reaching 4,000 Likes on her facebook page, Faerie Queen Rose is offering these four tantalizing prizes.  WINNER TAKES ALL - so get your entries in!
