🎨✨ Alicia’s Art is at the Heroes Art Show TONIGHT! ✨🎨

A few familiar faces—and one brand-new piece—are heading to The Fremont tonight for the Heroes Art Show hosted by D Ryan Allen!

I had a LOT of fun with the idea of what makes a hero, so my five pieces are a wonderfully strange little collection. 😂❤️

⚔️ Westley — The Princess Bride — NEW!

🌈 Noble Heart Horse — The Care Bears Movie -(never before shown)

🦄 Amalthea — The Last Unicorn

🐀 Hamato’s Journey — Splinter, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

🎩✨ Zatanna — Justice League / DC

Some heroes wield swords or magic. Some raise the next generation of heroes. And some are magical horses who simply don't get nearly enough appreciation. 😂

If you're out tonight, stop by The Fremont and check out the Heroes Art Show, see the artwork in person, and support local artists!

Introducing Alicia's Desk Mail Club! 💌✨

Art, Stories & a Little Light in Your Mailbox!

Have you ever wished you could receive a little envelope filled with art, stories, and unexpected treasures? Well, I've been working on something special, and I'm so excited to finally share it with you!

Introducing Alicia's Desk Mail Club, a monthly collection of original artwork, short fiction, celestial insights, and little bits of inspiration, created by yours truly!

Every month brings a new collection featuring:

🎨 A 4×6 postcard/print of my original artwork

📖 An original short story by Alicia K. Anspaugh

🌟 A monthly celestial calendar featuring astrology insights and a few ideas for working with the month's energies

✂️ A 5×7 sticker sheet

💌 A personal letter from Alicia's Desk

✨ “A Little Light for Your Pocket” — a business-card-sized inspiration card featuring the month's artwork and a message inspired by the story

And, from time to time, I'll tuck in a few surprise extras, such as bookmarks, recipes, or other little creative goodies!

Two ways to enjoy the Mail Club!

Subscriptions opening SOON!

💌 Snail Mail Edition — $25/month

Love receiving actual mail? This one's for you! Your collection will be printed, packed, and mailed directly to your mailbox.

U.S. shipping is included!

💻 Email Edition — $19/month

Prefer digital goodies? Receive the monthly collection electronically, with printable artwork, stories, stickers, calendars, and more to enjoy at home.

Both editions feature the same monthly creative collection, simply delivered in different ways!

A new little world every month!

One month might bring a fantasy adventure, another a science fiction mystery, a ghost story, or something entirely unexpected. The artwork, stories, and creative surprises will change throughout the year.

And sometimes, you might even encounter a familiar character or two from my books and webnovels!

The Mail Club is coming soon!

The Mail Club page is now live, and I'm putting the finishing touches on our very first collection. Online subscription checkout is not available just yet, but you can explore the club and its monthly plans on the website!

Thank you for being part of this new adventure. I can't wait to send a little piece of Alicia's Desk out into the world!

With love, ink, and a little starlight,

🌟 I’m Going to the Storytellers Market! 🌟

I am VERY excited to announce that I’ll have a booth at the Storytellers Market at Merle Hay Mall on Saturday, October 17th!

Come find Alicia Anspaugh — Author • Artist • Storyteller from 11 AM–7 PM and step into a little corner of my creative world.

I’ll be bringing a selection of my books, short stories, magazines, webnovels, artwork and prints, along with information about the Celestial Library and all the different places you can read, watch, listen to, and explore my work.

I’m also hoping to have some NEW things ready by then—including more books, nonfiction, journals, and other goodies currently making their way from my brain into the real world. 😂 What actually makes it to the table will depend upon what I can get finished and printed before October, but there WILL be plenty to explore!

And yes—I'll have information about the special collection featuring stories by my dad and me, too. ❤️
