It’s out! This audiobook is both the longest of the four novels AND includes the entire Gifts of the Fairy Queen novella, so it’s a whopping 15hrs long. That’s 3/4 of the existing series available now, with the final installment (for now) to come in October.
- The Courtship of Julian St. Albans – available now!
- The Apprenticeship of Julian St. Albans – available now!
- The Guardianship of Julian St. Albans – available now!

The shorts are included with the novels, so you’ll get the whole story with no gaps left by missing related works! I for one think that was very cool of them.

Consulting Magic 1 & 2 on Audio
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2025
The wonderful Tantor Media, a division of RB Media, have very kindly licensed my Consulting Magic series for audio!
My audiobook guy (official title) has been a joy to work with, and this whole process is great. Go enjoy them so I can convince them to make more of my books into audio for you (and me)!
It’s the same narrator, Keval Shah, for all 4 books, so it’ll all feel very consistent.
I found him delightful for the small amount I heard – it turns out that listening to my own words read by someone else makes me want to jump out a window to make it stop, so, I didn’t get far.
- The Courtship of Julian St. Albans – available now!
- The Apprenticeship of Julian St. Albans – available now!
- The Guardianship of Julian St. Albans – audio publication date is 9/30/2025
- A Flutter of Fae – audio publication date is 10/21/2025
The shorts are included with the novels, so you’ll get the whole story with no gaps left by missing related works! I for one think that was very cool of them.

August 2024 Patreon Sketches
Wednesday, October 9th, 2024
As usual, these were requested in August, sketched in September, and are being shared here a little after that! I still have my 100 Cats project to share with y’all, but I haven’t yet figured out what format I want to use for the posts (and how much Photoshopping it will require, sigh).
- Nick and Andria both wanted coziness, so the napping purrito and autumn opossum are for them.
- SaraBeth asked for two of my OCs, Andy and Horace. Andy is a weird shadow monster who is in full muppet mode here, lol. (sold)
- Jefferson wanted a Galaxy Cake, ironically not the cake I had for my birthday this year. (sold)
- Eric asked for egrets. No regrets, only egrets. (sold)
- Kelly asked for a phoenix and got this sparkly boyo. (sold)
- Amber wanted Calvin & Hobbes, which I am always happy to deliver. (sold)
- I got another new pack of cool pencils and experimented with them to draw weird fire.
- Amy B wanted a batcat for the season! (sold)

Patreon sketches for December 2019 requests
Thursday, January 30th, 2020
I’ve decided to stick with my new standard size for Patreon sketches from now on, so everyone gets a standard ACEO (artist card, edition original) aka trading card size piece of art when they make a request. Patrons also get to see exclusive photos, including cat pics, works in progress, and other such shenanigans. Plus, they get the warm feeling of contentment that they support the arts every month!
I’ve also been doing some figure sketch practice, so expect to see more actual people at some point! I’m pretty happy with how the sketches are coming out, even if I haven’t done a ton of them yet.
My commissions queue is full, so I’m working hard on clearing the decks so I can open them up again, as well as finally editing my newest book (it’s so close to done omg), and finishing up some other long-overdue projects. I don’t think it’s possible to feel caught up anymore, but I have hopes that someday I’ll have space to breathe and take on new work!
In the meantime, the January requests post is still open, if you want to join us on Patreon!

Alexander Nigel Frankfurt Benedict IV
Tuesday, February 13th, 2018
Alex Benedict, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper
In my first self-published novel, The Courtship of Julian St. Albans, the main character Alex whistles up some magic butterflies to impress the young man he’s courting. He also manages to acquire a flower fairy, though that comes much later. At no point would he actually put up with the coattails, though he is awfully fond of black with black and a side of black as his palette.
I drew this for Inktober in 2015, and colored it the other day as a warm-up to commissions. Because if I don’t do my own characters for FANbruary, who will?
