Snow by Night

And with Page 10 of Winter Fantasy, our vignette comes to a close. It becomes clear here that it was Blaise’s imagination that turned his window doodles into a musical fantasy drawn in frost for all of us to share with him. Next week, we begin Chapter 7 – take a peek at the cover page by voting for us on Top Web Comics for a glimpse of what is still to come.

Since we prepare our updates on the night before an update day, we will not be updating this Friday so that our staff can enjoy America’s Independence Day. We hope you enjoy July 4th, whether you’re celebrating the same holiday or not, and we’ll see you here next week!

Hello, Diane here to bring you the promised silliness in place of Eric’s usual Almanac update! He and Amy have been sending me updates on their adventures in London, which I have jealously illustrated here for you. They went on a double-decker bus tour through London that took them over the Tower Bridge. They weren’t actually still on the bus when they visited the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, or when they crossed St. James’ Park to see Buckingham Palace, but I claim artistic liberty.

I had originally intended to make the animation a bit longer and sillier, but unfortunately I’ve been stranded in bed with a high fever, and I can barely keep awake for more than half an hour at a time. But maybe next week…

While I hope you enjoyed my fun little interlude, we’ll be back to the vignette for Monday’s update. Vote for us on Top Web Comics for a sneak peek!

It’s Diane here again to bring you Page 8 of Winter Fantasy! After entering a native tribe to find a festive night of dancing, Blaise and Snow-by-Night shrink to dance on top of one of the drums. To see where their musical leads next, vote for us on Top Web Comics.

Don’t forget to stop by on Friday for my special update to cover Eric’s absence! There won’t be an Almanac entry, but there will be fun shenanigans.

Having fallen to the bottom of Crescent Falls, Blaise and Snow land in a boat that takes them to shore. Hand in hand, they walk toward a long wooden fence on Page 7 of Winter Fantasy – to see what lies beyond, vote for us on Top Web Comics.

With Eric away on vacation, Diane is here to take over (despite also being on vacation)! Luckily my vacation is just a few hours south at my family’s house, so internet access is easy to get. Eric, on the other hand, is somewhere on a plane right now. He’s right about Thursday’s update; there will be no Almanac entry this week. Instead, stay tuned for something much, much sillier!

Hi, everyone! Diane here to bring you the Almanac update while Brittany and Eric are away at Animazement! If you’re attending, make sure to stop by and bother them for me! Say hello and check out Chapters 1-4 for sale and all our other merchandise available. Eric and Brittany would be happy to sign copies for you, if you like. Anyone interested in merchandise who isn’t local can also check out our online Store.

Eric wrote an entry on the Mason’s Guild yesterday before he left, tying into last week’s entry on the Fundament Exchange. There are rumors of some political goings-on behind the scenes that I found intriguing… He forgot to leave me the typical parchment background file, so I had to make do with this, the Mason’s Guild marque.

Also remember that you can vote for us on Top Web Comics daily to see a preview of the next page!

Hello, everyone! Diane here, reporting in while Eric and Brittany are preparing for Katsucon this weekend. If you’re attending, please stop by to say hello and check out our books, buttons, and prints for sale!

Since Eric’s unavailable to do his usual write-up for the Almanac entry this week, we decided to review the existing entries and make some improvements. I’ve added a number of images to the Almanac entries that discuss things shown in the comic so far, and made a few tweaks here and there to fix word choice and order.

In Diane-related news, I’ve been working on the site’s redesign and hope to add some great new features soon. We do have plans to add the Journal’s Comment section to each Story page in the archive, along with plans to bring you bigger, better views of the Story pages once the redesign widens our content area to give us more space. Are there any specific features you’d like for us to add? Please let me know in the Comments here, and I’ll see what magic – I mean, what alchemy I can work!

Almanac Reference: Peste

Today we bring you Chapter 5 Page 28, a lighthearted ending to that serious, dangerous scene. I love this ongoing gag with Laurent ending up stuck to walls all the time. Serves you right, you rook!

Eric and Brittany are still on their way back from Ohayocon, which was a huge success! Eric will have to tell you all about it once he’s settled back in. Hopefully we’ll spy some new readers joining us from the con!

Don’t forget to check out the details of our ongoing Art Contest, which offers cash prizes for the top 8 finalists. If you have any questions or concerns, drop us a line at artcontest@snowbynight.com.

Finally, if you’d like to see Brittany’s pencils for this page, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
