Well-y, well, well, it seems you have discovered my
SUPER ULTRA CONFIDENTIAL TOP SECRET website.

Either you are far too clever for me, or my choice of a hiding place leaves much to be desired.

Whatever the case, since you're here now, I bid you welcome of the warmest sort.

Feel free to poke around, see what I've done with the place, make yourself comfortable.

This is the home-sweet-homepage, after all.

* In the interest of inviting prosperity into my life, I have signed up for a Ko-fi account.
​If you enjoy the art I've made (and will go on to make, magic willing), I thank you for any support you're in a place to offer.

~ The Latest from Danielle E. Shipley ~

Things I had to start with:
- Magic.
- A family to run back to if this whole 'moving to the big city' thing went bust.
- A lack of assumptions about what to expect (and yes, I'm counting that in the positives column).
- A car and a new address to drive it towards.

Things I knew I needed:
- To finally move out of my parents' house.
- A world as interesting on the outside as I am on the inside.
- Scope. (For what? That remains to be discovered.)

Things I found:
- A really great fountain. (LOTS of really great fountains!)
- Artistic excellence (and the artists to go with).
- Two dragons and a selkie.
- Humans somehow just as remarkable.
- Magic, like and unlike my own.
​- And a very different verse of the oldest song I know: Family.
