Feathered: being a fairy tale . . . coming this Summer

tomweston — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 18:21:26 +0000

Whenever Alexandra Caroline O’Rourke, AKA Alex, met with trouble, she generally blamed her younger sister, Jackie. And Alex’s sudden engagement to marry a Viking prince, against her will, would probably classify as trouble. If nothing else, a wedding held in 11th century Ireland would make it difficult to invite her friends from San Diego.

Regardless of blame, Jackie was the only person who could help Alex, but Jackie was still in the 21st century. And Jackie had her own problems. It had stopped raining; and this, of course, meant that the fairies had stopped singing. If Jackie could not find a way to make it rain, marauding Vikings would be the least of their worries, because this is Feathered and this is an Alex and Jackie Adventure.

Just how did a little girl called Daisy happen to have a Holiday named after her?

Coming soon! Dancing Daisy Day: the animation. Written, Produced and Directed by Tom Weston; Narrated by Tony Impieri; featuring the music of Roger Subirana.

2012 gets off to a great start with the announcement that following the success of There be Monsters!, we will be bringing another Tale from the Green Dragon Tavern to the Silver Screen. Work has commenced on the animated short: Dancing Daisy Day.

Yes, Billy, George, Ron and Tom are back!

And we are really excited that Tony Impieri has returned to reprise his role of the Narrator; and that the highly addictive music of Roger Subirana will also feature.

It’s early days yet, but in the meantime you can read the short story here.

Regards,

Tom

Have a Great First Night

Then the sky shook, illuminated by a dazzling explosion of light and sound and color, the likes of which the sisters had never seen before and would never see again. Fireworks! Fireworks over Boston harbor; moving and glorious, as if Michelangelo had painted the sky at the request of an extravagant Pope. Fireworks! It was New Year’s Day.

First Night

A safe and Happy Year to all my friends. And if you are in Boston for First Night, remember to drop by the Granary and say hello to Sarah Pemberton.

Regards,

Tom
