This has been quite a day, busy busy. Between cleaning up for a gaming event tomorrow night and finally putting the boxes of Halloween decorations back in the garage, Crow and I have been on the go most of the day. She did make two new ornaments, and I added one to the shop.
Our snowman is ready to come home with someone special and perhaps cause a little mischief on the way. The second ornament Crow designed is a toy airplane; however the wheels refuse to stay on during the cooking process so she's waiting for it to harden and cool off. When it does, she'll attach the wheels so we can put it in the shop.
In addition to the Christmas ornaments I'd like to introduce a new expansion to our shop - the Andromeda Galaxy category! We currently have two products based on creatures from the Andromeda Galaxy. The Moreena bird and the snat. You'll find mention and description of the snat in "DOT" (Bookworld Series Volume 2). The Moreena bird has yet to appear in any of my writing.

Christmas Ornaments!
We have three awesome ornaments in stock! Check them out and look for more coming soon. Thank Crow for her continued amazing designs. Took some pictures of them on our (still bare) tree. Now we're really off to trim it (and have a nice Merlot).
Greetings of the Many Seasons!
Whether celebrating Chanukah, Christmas, Kwanza, Yule or some other holiday, December is filled with celebrations and parties. In fact there's probably something to celebrate every day of the month. At least according to About.com. Coyote's Blessings is geared up for the holiday rush with the store's updates, a new addition to our store, and some great Christmas ornaments.
Crow is busy working on Christmas ornaments - she's already made several designs and they will be added to the inventory as soon as they cool down. We only have a few ready today; however there are more to come in the next week.
I added a new Category - Books! Now you can purchase my published written material. We have a limited supply of copies; however you can always order on line from the publisher as well (Xlibris) or from Amazon.
We're also proud to introduce - our CafePress shop! We like to consider it an extension of the main store. There aren't many products in it at the moment; however you can currently find a sampling of some Coyote's Blessings support clothing and items, as well as a rare look into Crow's other amazing artistic abilities as we showcase her other artwork. Currently on display are products with the "Andromeda Galaxy" design. The majority of my stories are located in the Andromeda Galaxy.
Our prices have changed slightly to reflect shipping costs. Thanks for understanding. Order before the 15th and we'll guarantee it will get there before Christmas.
Now the update's finished, we're off to trim our tree!

And We're Back!
October has come and gone, now the rest of the holidays are rolling into perspective. I hope everyone is planning something fun with people who care about them.
October marked our first successful shipped commission! The previous commissions were all hand-delivered. We created a candle holder with the colors and patterns of a living snake. Sammy the Snake (Candle Holder) made his way home, and the pleased recipient posted some pictures of the two Sammys posing together.
We have a new batch of Sky Sculptures from Lynx. Though none of the new ones have wind chimes, the new colors are fantastic. She also created a tiny wind-chime, which is awesome.
Crow and I will have more products coming up soon!

Holiday Inventory Update
Come All Ye Faithful
Readers that is...
As mentioned, October is a mad-house for us here at CB. Our stock is running a bit low, you might notice there are some things missing that should be there (I believe candles were promised at one point). However, fear not, they *will* be on the "shelves" in time to get your orders in for Christmas.
Keep checking back and expect more goodies at the beginning of November, mid November at the latest. That's more than enough time to order them and ship them to wherever you need them to go.

Scary Report Addendum
I wrote a poem
today. It's been over a year since the last one. Anyone know any good agents or
places to publish a book of poems?
The time of All Hallows brings forth the usual madness, so email responses may be slower than usual for the season. This year we add seasonal jobs at a Haunted House to the chaos.
Then the challenge of finishing the first volume in the Company Chronicles, so I can continue writing the third book in the Bookworld series, Nightmare through Memory Lane. The plan is to have Volume 3 out in time for Christmas next year (2013).
If the world survives this year!

Scary Update Part III: Introducing the Guest Artist Program and our friend…
-Drum Roll please-
Coyote’s Blessings is proud to introduce our first
guest artist, Lynx! The first of more we hope. Lynx has designed some amazing
knotted-art, with an array of colors to decorate any ceiling or grace doorways.
Under the Sculptures section are her contributions. Contact Lynx through the store’s email for
questions about or queries for her work.
Lynx brings a slew of wonderful and diverse talent to Coyote's Blessings. She makes great bacon rolls too!
Scary Report
(Warning: Long)
So much to update since my last post I considered dividing
it into parts. The result reminded me of the Joker’s attempt at accounting.
After so long worried about her fate, Gray Kitty’s
owner finally contacted me again. One of the knoblings is finally going home -
my first commissioned knobling, Little Gray Cat. You can see her in the Commissions Photo Gallery.
We borrowed my mom’s easel and had an incredible
day of artistic peace. Crow painted an amazing watercolor for me. I call it
"Starbear". The next one she plans to paint is "Brothers'
Clash". This will be the first color picture of a Sunlit Scalla, and only
known depiction of a Shrouded Scalla. Based on the battle that ended the Dusk
of Dawns, this image depicts the brothers Tsar’Gosen and Gothalor.
You might have noticed we have fewer Clay Critters. Crow
is still working on up-dating the rest of our friends to their better versions.
We've officially retired the old versions, and the rest of the new ones will be
coming out soon!
Welcome Beauty, the newest member of the knobling family! A new knobling shimmers her way to us. Based on our female Beda, this knobling is the second in the magnet series. She
means to swim into your heart and on to your refrigerator (or other metal
objects).
As I mentioned before, if you know of any small
businesses, be sure to send us a message, or post here, and we'll add their
websites to our "Affiliates" page. Connecting smaller businesses will
help everyone.
So will comments and feedback about the store!
Of course, October is coming... The brevity of summer proved autumn’s
surprised hope.
Thanks for reading (if you're out there o.o).
‘nuff said.

Holding a Flame for You...
Coyote's Blessings now officially introduces our newest product line. Candle holders! Six wonderful and whimsical candle holders are available in the store. Each of them was (of course) hand-crafted by Crow or me. They are all of similar size and most can hold either a tea or votive-sized candle. Check them out!

A quickie
Hello Faithful Readers!
Just wanted to drop in to say that we've created an etsy store. If you don't know etsy is, then click on the link under "Pages" and check it out =) (Basically it's just another version of a store ;)). AND we now have a Twitter account - Also added to the Pages List.

SO LONG!
Yes, it has been so long since last I posted. The title also refers to the length of this post!
Fear not, you are not forgotten... adoring public of whom I doubt there are many >.> (notes the fact we have no followers...)
Nevertheless, store updates are posted here when we get them! Annndd... we have a store update! Three new knoblings have made their way into the store, including Butterfly-Fairy who brings a whole new look to the knoblings. Instead of her block brethren, she is a magnet. Hopefully the first of a new line. I'm doing some experiments with the knobs I have left, and thought mounting them on other things besides wooden blocks might prove interesting. A small package of magnets and several feathers later, and viola! Butter-Fairy is born.
Not to take the spotlight away from the other new knoblings, I would like to introduce "Mouse" and "Beach Bunny" as they make their debut on Coyote's Blessings. May Mouse munch his way into a good home while Beach Bunny soaks up the rays and enjoys the attention of her adoring public.
Other changes afoot include Crow and I working on redesigning the store-front for a great new look. Our site provider upgraded their system, making designing websites even easier. So we're having fun changing the store's design and outline. Keep checking back for updates on this! If you have suggestions, feel free to post them up for us, we'd love to hear from you (as always).
Finally - we have a Facebook page!

Big News Part II
Coyote's Blessings is officially official!
We managed to scourge enough funds together to get our official business license!! So we're a legit business now!

Massive Update
I have two items of great news! Originally I was going to post them both in one massive entry; however I think they both deserve individual entries.
We received our first major commission! Crow received a commission of approximately forty Clay Critter figurines. She's currently working hard to make them. They are ornaments for two wonderful little girls to commemorate their birthdays. Although the girls are not very old at the moment, the person who commissioned Crow asked for two copies of each Critter. So Crow has a lot of work to do! We'll post pictures as they come up in the "Commissions" section of the website as she finishes them.
In lesser news, I am working on new knoblings - "Beach Bunny" and "Mouse House". I hope to get wind chimes in the mix again soon (read - updated and better!).

Not Forgotten!
Hello everyone,
No fear, we haven't forgotten our fans (those of you out there). It's been a busy few weeks with little movement on the CB front. Unfortunately funds are low, so supplies are limited.
However, Crow finally sat down and created more Clay Critters! She's working hard to replace the "old style" Critters with the newer clay. I'd also like to introduce two new additions to our collection - Crow and Cabbit! (Yes, a Cabbit). You'll be able to see them in the store in about an hour, which is approximately the time that it will take me to insert their photos.
In other news, we're also eliminating our "Garage Sales" section, at least for now. Perhaps when we have more site visitors we'll re-introduce it. If you saw something on the section that you were intending on buying and would like to reserve it, please feel free to email us within the next week or so. Otherwise, everything will be donated to a worthy cause or sold at our local bookstore/music store.
Exciting new feature coming soon - the Gallery! Images of knobling commissions and already-sold wind chimes will be put on display. These are for reference and admiration only. For although I will be able to make similar knoblings and wind chimes, none of them are exactly the same, and of course knoblings are still limited edition pieces.
That's it for now. I'm off to update the website!
