Felipe Femur: Postcards

postcards

I’ve started a new series for kids on the Felipe Femur & Friends website called “Postcards from Felipe.” Starting from Toonstone, the fictional hometown of Felipe Femur the skeleton, Felipe and a crew of monsters will set out into the mortal world, traveling to Nevada and moving through Arizona, California, and beyond. Each postcard will be a short letter addressed to “friends” and tell readers a little something about the area, as well as a brief story concerning the RV crew’s exploits and adventures. I’ve started writing about places I have personally been so a lot of my personal experiences serve as inspiration. Nevertheless, I will eventually move on to places I have not been and rely more on factual research to craft the stories. I hope to have fans send in places they want Felipe Femur to visit.

As of now the crew consists of Felipe Femur the skeleton, Sunny the vampire, Runny the witch, Gummy the werewolf, Joe Miller, an average Joe, and Melody the banshee with her pet crab Choral. Other Toonstone characters will likely show up throughout the series, and new friends will be made. There is an overarching story related to aliens, so many of the places Felipe and his RV crew visit will be know for UFO sightings, such as Rachel, NV, the mortal world starting place. Several of the bigger cities will see several postcards dedicated to them. Below are the nine postcards that I have for the launch:

The banner above is linked to the main Postcards from Felipe post on the same website. If you enjoyed these postcards, stay tuned for more. Felipe Femur and his RV crew of monsters have lots of places to see and plenty of adventures to have. We have also developed an Android app version of the postcard stories that has postcards 1-13.
