Arpeggio Webcomic

edit

Phil Brucato, Bryan Syme, and Sandra Buskirk began publishing Arpeggio in 2010. The story follows Meghan Susan Green, a young teenager, as she explores her magical musical talents.[4] Although the comic was only produced between 2008 and 2012, Patreon users were able to access the final, previously unpublished "episodes" in 2015 and 2016.[5]

Ravens in the Library is a limited-edition fantasy anthology published in 2009 as part of a fundraiser for singer/songwriter S. J. Tucker, who had been hospitalized due to serious medical issues.[6] Brucato co-edited this anthology with Sandra Buskirk, and it became their first publication through Quiet Thunder Productions. Contributing authors and illustrators include Laurell K. Hamilton, Terri Windling, Charles de Lint, Neil Gaiman, Francesca Lia Block, Holly Black, Stephanie Pui-Mun Law, James A.
