More fannish excitement!

The other thing I bought for myself arrived, and I've just enjoyed a delightful reread!




I read Digger online when it was still a WIP, too, though as I recall it was fairly close to ending, or even managed to end before I had caught up to the current page. It's pretty much the thing that cemented Ursula Vernon in my heart; before, of course, I loved her art (I have committed fanfic), but Digger gave me a much wider scope on just how many beloved tropes we share.

If you love mythology and folklore, pragmatic protagonists, culture clashes, and fantasy, check it out! I sprung for the omnibus edition because I had read the story already, but it's pricey (more than reasonably so, considering the size and artwork! but pricey nonetheless) and if you'd like to try it for less you can also purchase it in multi-volume form. Or check it out online, though I urge you to support the artist if you can!

We got the fancy kickstarter version :) Also, Ursula and Kevin live about 45 minutes from me.

Oh, wow, that sounds awesome - what's fancy about the fancy kickstarter version, can I ask?

And hey, living near UVernon sounds like it'd be pretty cool, too; her garden photos are always very impressive, so there must be some nice scenery around you!

Oh pants, I just realized I never replied to this! It's signed is the main fancy bit, but it also came with goodies and swag.

There is definitely a lot of green here. It's one of the things visitors from the desert west comment on!
