General update - January 2022

This is going to be just a quick update to let everyone know that I'm still around. I have spent a lot of time the past couple of years dealing with vandalism and adopting wikis to put a stop to it.

I adopted one for a comic strip in December that I've really gotten interested in because of the connections with another comic the same author writes. I'm trying to build a common foundation for both wikis because they will share information. What I learn doing that will be applied here and on a couple other wikis. Working with the new light and dark themes is a part of it, as is dealing with large scale but repetitive pages, like what you find with a comic that's released daily.

It's going to take a while, so my activity here may stay at the ve…

My dragon can take your unicorn rebuttle

This was a response I typed up after seeing a bumper sticker a while ago. I gave a copy of it to Dana at a convention. I think she liked it.


The person who put the "My dragon can take your unicorn" bumper sticker on their car

Earlier this week, Ullmann Medien announced that German editions of Phoebe and Her Unicorn were now available and followed it up with another in English:

Wir arbeiten kaum noch, weil alle mit ihren Nasen in Fibi und ihr Einhorn stecken. [1]
Phoebe and her unicorn by @MizDanaClaire is now available in german - We love it! [2]

First, that's great news. Ullmann is a large publisher in Germany. Since we now have German editions produced by a company like them, then maybe it won't be long before French, Italian, Japanese and other editions will be published.

So far, the first two books are available:

  • Fibi und ihr Einhorn
  • Fibi und ihr Einhorn – Volle Fahrt ins Glück

A few companies have imported the book and sell them through Amazon here in the US. I thi…

One award, two newspapers and a third book

In the past two months, we've had three significant events happen for Phoebe and Her Unicorn, which I'll shorten to just Phoebe hereafter. The first is that the first book, Phoebe and Her Unicorn: A Heavenly Nostrils Chronicle, just won the Scandiuzzi Children's Book Award for "Books for middle readers (ages 9 to 12), presented by the Washington State Book Awards. The Awards are for authors born in Washington state to recognize "literary merit, lasting importance, and overall quality of the publication", according to Wikipedia.

Dana said she wanted to beat Ken Jennings, who had a 74-game winning streak on Jeopardy, just so she could brag about being able to do something that doesn't happen very often. Well, now she can.


The second was the announc…
