Floral Dragons Proofs

Our dandelion dragon couriers dropped off a special delivery: proof copies of the standard and deluxe editions of the Field Guide to Floral Dragons! This is the fastest turnaround we’ve ever had for proof copies, and our team is combing through them to make sure the text and art are pristine. The books are gorgeous and we can’t wait to get them to you!

New Friends

We’re developing a plushie of a new critter named Risky, and this the prototype! Don’t worry, we’re tweaking his expression so that the final version will look a little less haunted by the crushing weight of existence. I wonder what project he’s for…

That’s our good news for the week! Check back next week for more updates and good vibes!
