2011: The Year of the Rabbit.

If 2010 was the Year of the Ghost in my weird personal cosmology, 2011 is going to be the Year of the Rabbit. One rabbit in specific: Velveteen, former member of the Junior Super Patriots, West Coast Division, reluctant superhero, and too long a stranger around these parts.

I can't commit to a story a month for the whole year, but I can commit to a story every other month. So here you go: I will be writing and posting a minimum of six Velveteen stories during 2011. Not sure who she is? Check out the series landing page for background and archived stories. I'll be bringing the website up to speed on her adventures, and then a new adventure can finally begin.

Coming in January, "Velveteen vs. the Secret Identity."

Heroes unite!

Is it going to be on the same online mag that did Sparrow Hill?

seanan_mcguire

Nope. Much as I love Vel, she's not quite TEoP's thing. I'll be publishing the stories here.

Yeah! I missed velveteen. Also, I can't remember if I commented or not, and my browser isn't cooperating to let me check, but the Night Before Xmas riff was awesome!

YAY!!! :-D

I have been missing Velveteen! :-D

(Also: Finally finished "Thunder Road". I managed not to cry this time, but it was a very near thing. :-)


Happy Solstice (off to make pomegranate-chocolate cookies).

Punch the air on joy! I love Velveteen. I often find myself giggling uncontrollably when I read the stories, and I have to remind myself not to read them at work.

seanan_mcguire

December 27 2010, 16:05:18 UTC 6 years ago

Awesome!

seanan_mcguire

December 27 2010, 16:05:32 UTC 6 years ago

I'm aghast at how long it's been since the last one.

December 22 2010, 04:27:11 UTC 6 years ago

Oh! Oh! Oh! You just made my wish come true. :-) I finished the Velveteen stories last week, and mere hours ago wished out loud that there was more Velveteen to read. Happy Solstice, indeed!

seanan_mcguire

December 27 2010, 16:05:42 UTC 6 years ago

Hooray for wish-granting!
