Louisa John Krol is an amazing, lovely and talented singer-songwriter from Australia, Kelly Miller-Lopez another raven-fairy sister from Oregon, We three collaborated in one of the songs that will be featured in next Louisa´s album. But our mingling goes beyond, as we both Louisa and I collaborated in Kelly´s "Seasons of Elfland" CD and they both collaborated in my second album "The Underliving" so we keep on crossing paths  Louisa named the "group" and bond :) the "Chalice" as We´re in a triangle in the world (Oregon, Barcelona and Australia) and we three make ethereal fairy music :)

Above: me with my gifted "Graines de Berceuses" digibook :) sorry for the crappy pic  of me LOL :) But the digibook looks wonderful :) It came to my mail from my aussie fairy friend along with a lovely piece of soap that smells like heaven :)

Today I got a lovely little fairy package from Louisa and it included the digibook "Graines de Berceuses" released by French label Prikosnovenie that includes a compilation CD which features among others Louisa´s "Fountains of Alderbee" A that guests also  my vocals, bansuri and low whistle :) as well as Kelly´s additional vocals and harp. You can see more about this release here . This song will be included in Louisa´s next album, and also conceptual illustrated book "Elderbrook" For purchasing Graines de Berceuses you can go here http://prikosnovenie.com/groupes/graines-de-berceuses.html

So now there's a little box from me flying all the way to Australia with some handmade gifts for Louisa too :) I made that crown and she's making also a fairy garland for me :) yay :) So with a little of fairy dust this will make someone's day as my package made mine :) <3

I coudn't help to try the crown before sending it :) I so much hope that it arrives safely and that she likes it :)

Above, the dryad crown on me, looking forward to see how it looks on Louisa :) plotting now a matching necklace for her ;-) and a raven black one for Kelly :)

Some listeners and fans when I had Totonika my hamster (love u still Toto, mummy misses you) sent me plush toys of little rats. At the end I had all these three, a white, a brown and a gray one. They´ve seen since then in our room. Then Fufunchis my rats found our home, a lovely white husky RITVA and a brown agouti :) TUULA. Their names are finnish and means Birch branch and Little Wind.  But then last 16th December!! (yes my birthday) a baby russian blue gray cute in my friend´s rattery (Piece of Heaven rattery) and I asked cautiously if there were gray females in the litter, they replied there were in fact three but all reserved and I thought well it was not the time... but that´s the magic about it all :) she finally was un-reserved and I got a call to ask if I wanted her... and suddently there's a third gray rat in our family :) just like the plush toys over I had...
The prophecy became true... Welcome home TAIKA (means magic, spell in finnish too)

And thus FUFUNCHIS are now THREE and have their "muppet plush toys clones" LOL hahaha. Though we don't discard to increase our family ;-) there´s a little gray ball now there, so tiny and so cuttttttttttte! Only two days and learning so fast, still there´s some time until we can make full presentations of the babies and adult ones as they require to get used to each other bit by bit, but so far, so good they gaze each other with curiosity :)

Here's TAIKA as a  three weeks baby (now she's five) We visited her in the rattery too :) as soon as we knew she was going to be part of the family :)

And now the little earthquake now in our home, her first pictures exploring :) Hope you'll have a long and happy life with us. We love you already. Welcome home TAIKA!

Me and Taika (from finnish "magic", "spell"). She is grows since he came home but still sooo tiny :) Hello Taika, this is mummy!

Taika besides  The Underliving digibook so you can see how small she is still :) (yeah subliminal self-promotion, thank you sweet baby!)

I'm curious about EVERYTHING :), yep this is cool! :)

And I'm so perfectly CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE :)

Taika, just like Tuula and Ritva now their new two elder sisters, come from Piece of Heaven Rattery. And for any stumbling upon this blog because they found a cute rat pic ;-) Taika is not alone, she'll have two friends, always pick more than one rat and do it always from a breeder, you'll thank the advice and the likely long term health of your rat.

Welcome home Taika :)

and remember, if you want to send a welcome card to Taika or any correspondence to fufunchis! (or me, though I admit they get more correspondence than myself LOL)

Last thursday me and some friends had fun in a photoshoot with reknown spanish photographer Rebeca Saray. We all gathered in El Costurero Real workshop where Alassie arranged our hairs and spent all day working hard in 14 different stylisms, hairdos and make ups,  then me and friends were photographed in 274 Km studio (Barcelona).

It was exhausting, friendly and cozy :) and indeed we all had a great time

All these snippets I share in this entry are silly pictures I took with my hand camera, for the final and proper pictures we have to wait still quite a bit :) but you can make an idea of what might come out :) and the great time we shared :)

This is before taking any pictures, when we were rehearsing poses, I made the dress. The wings were also designed by me and manufactured by Enchanted costumes.

Had a great fun with all my friends Duncan Trisquel, Felix Goggles, Vany Miranda, Wui de Lue,  Nimue Arianhrod, Dramian Corvus and Jafet that were photographed too. Thanks everyone for the super-funny (though exhausting) day :)

Above: Vany Miranda and me. She was teaching me to strike a pose... :) by the way I handmade the butterfly feather eyelashes :) and dress :). Make up and hair by Alassie :), pendant by Inner Fae Creations :)

Above: Wui de Lue, me and Duncan fooling around the camera, of course I say again these are not the proper shots, for the serious and good ones we must wait till Rebeca finish the edition :) but I'm sure it will worth the wait. You can guess we had loooooooooooots of fun :)

And when I returned, I had a hard time washing my face and disarranging the hairdo, snif... it felt like Cinderella at midnight. :)

this is me and Tuula in my bathroom mirror... mirror mirror on the well who´s the fairiest of them all? Of course my beautiful rat Tuula :) she needs no make up :)

When I was a child I wanted to be a writer :) I really never played with dolls, I loved to write an paint my own stories :) That is how I ended up making drawings, illustrating my own writings. When I was eight I was gifted a typewriter, in just a few months I passed my typewriting exam. Now speed was in my hands and I used to save money to buy blank paper LOL to write my own tales and novels. When I was nine I wrote my first full book, it was called Lestar :).  The premise couldn't be more childish and naive, a winged magical horse LOL. I even made a bud of a song with my toy piano (when I was six!). I remember it had a  mix of Oz/neverending story vibe into it, but I cannot recall all details about it (still I play and remember the song though). I used to type like I was making a book bending the paper and sewing it afterwards and making even an engraved hardcover. Then from 10 to 14 I embarked in a bigger fantasy/epic sword and sorcery novel (as naive and childishly written as I was a teenager infatuated with Tolkien books). When entering high-school I made a book of short-horror tales called "Los cuentos del sendero". 

Recently I travelled to the Canary Islands, and looking for photographies of my recently deceased father I found a big black folder hidden in the wardrobe, when I opened it... surprise! and shock! It was a thick full folder full of my writings, maybe 600 or 700 pages, some poetry, tales, even great parts of those initial novels.

I picked some of the tales and writings and pages that were in front of me, they range from 8 years to 15 or years old of my age. So reading them is like going back to my head back so many years. I confess I've only re-read a bit and I was blushing all the way. But it reminds me that I should sit down and finish the novelization of "Yidneth" and maybe get back to my dream as novelist. Maybe a logical step would be releasing "Yidneth" as a comic and then the book version. Some months back I had already saved in a folder some recent short tales, hmm wonder if I should give it a try. I wonder if I should re-write some of the old writings as they are really coming from a child imagination, or if I should leave them as they were. I'll find out as I feel while  re-discovering this pieces of my own work.

Curiously enough of of the few "Cuentos del sendero" (The tales of the Path) rescued was "The Willow" that inspired in some way my own song The Willow´s lullaby.

Curious, afraid, ashamed, proud of reading this... finding myself again.
