US$20K Donation Offered If Fantasy Faire Fundraising Reaches US$40K

The word on the Fantasy Faire street is that this year’s fundraising efforts for Relay For Life could receive a whopping US$20K boost if this year’s Fantasy Faire raise US$40K by May 5th.

The news was spread first via an inworld message :

“THE FAIRELANDS HAVE MADE SUCH A MIGHTY ROAR …

… that it has now been heard far beyond our shores. The physical world has heard it, and returned word to us that we are not alone in the battle against the Unweaver! An anonymous group has said that if Fantasy Faire can raise $40,000 US Dollars by May 5th they will add an additional $20,000 US Dollars to our total. “

Fantasy Faire 2017 LitFest – Tolkien Day, Seanan McGuire & More

One of my favourite recent additions to Fantasy Faire has been the literary festival; LitFest and this will be held again this year with a very packed schedule over the 10 days of Fantasy Faire.

LitFest involves talks by authors, creative writing sessions, discussions, performances, open mic sessions, storytelling, poetry, tours, writing challenges and much more.

Author Seanan McGuire will be a featured guest. Seanan is the author of the October Daye and Incryptid urban fantasies.

April 25th will be Tolkien Day, with the work of J.R.R. Tolkien being celebrated. Previous Fantasy Faires have featured Pratchett day, celebrating the work of Terry Pratchett and Shakesepeare day, celebrating the work of Shakespeare, no great mystery there.

However there will be an official quest this year, and this one is The Bard Queen’s Song, which involves Farion The Pixie realising that his boss, The Bard Queen, has been missing for a bit longer than usual and this makes Farion realise something may very well be amiss.

FARION SUNBREEZE IS A PIXIE WITH A PROBLEM.

His boss has gone missing and he (and The Lads) have come to the conclusion that, while she’s been known to do this sort of thing before, something’s not right about this one. Were Farion a noodle seller from Kakushi Pasu this wouldn’t be a problem, but Farion (and The Lads) work for the Bard Queen – and an absent Bard Queen is bad news for the Fairelands.

Farion (and the lads, although they are not quite as keen as Farion) would like a bit of help finding out what has happened to The Bard Queen.
