Okay, so I decided I really want to get back into my RP Stable and Kennel, but I didn't like what I had to work with before. So I'm revamping my whole system! Both Zen Tree Stable and Blood Moon Stable (and their affiliated kennels and animal sactuarries) are being combined into one big estate called Deer Run Ranch. All of the animals will be transferred there and so will all the staff, but as I start to sort things out there may be large auctions held for animals that can no longer be properly cared for!
With this new start I'm hoping that I'll be able to start RPing more and interacting with others in the community. On top of drawing the characters more often and getting one a more constant contest schedule, I will really be focusing on the story around the characters and the ranch itself. I'll also totally be up for RPing with anyone who's willing to interact with the stable.
And now to answer the big question. Where will everything be moving? I will be keeping a folder on my main DA account, but instead of using a group like before, I will be keeping most of my stuff organized on my new tumblr account found here ---> deer-run-ranch-harpg.tumblr.co…
I really hope doing all of this will get my creative juices flowing again and give me an opportunity to fully interact with both the HARPG and DARPG community like I haven't been able to do previously.
I'm also open for starting RPing right away, even if all my stuff is unorganized still, so just send me a note here or message me on my new tumblr.
Hope to be seeing you soon,
Kaurau

And We're Back

3 min read
Sorry, the group went on a unannounced hiatus (both my stable and my kennel) due to school and some personal stuff, but I'm looking to get it back up and running.

I'm also looking to interact more with other stable/kennels, so if you want to do RPing (art or text), breeding, co-running a show, or any other fun activities you can think of, drop me a note!

Do you really want to get noticed? Pay just 5 points more (a total of 10 points, 6 for studs) and your add will be placed right in between the articles for all to see!

Why are we asking for points may you ask? These points will be going to fund contest prizes at the group, contests that will be free to enter so you can win your points back and much much more!

You might me saying, "well even so, I still don't have the points", worry not! If you write for the news letter you get your adds for free the month that you write! You may also be able to win add space from contests.

Now on to the sizes, there are four different sizes ranging from full page to sigle stud, and they each come with there own benefits,
