Author Anastasia Butcher’s New Book, “The Story of the Snowflakes,” Follows a Group of Brave Snowflakes Who Seek Out Help in Order to Remain Different and Unique


New York, NY, May 12, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Anastasia Butcher, an eleven-year-old student in middle school, has completed her new book, “The Story of the Snowflakes”: a charming tale that follows a group of snowflakes who set off to get help after they are attacked by two fairies who are angry that snowflakes are always different and never the same.

A fan of the outdoors and staying active, author Anastasia Butcher plays soccer for her travel team, basketball for her middle school team, and races Optis in regattas with her sailing team in the summer months. She lives with her parents, brother, and two dogs. In her spare time, Anastasia loves to be out on the water, fishing off her family’s dock or just exploring outside. Rainy days are spent reading, playing games with her family, talking to her friends, and occasionally writing.

“One day, two similarity fairies named Holly and Rose came to the land of snowflakes and threatened to burn everything down if the snowflakes don’t change their appearance,” writes Anastasia. “A few brave snowflakes teamed up with the president, Mr. Reagan, in the year 1987 to save their land from destruction and to prove the joys that differences can bring. Can Holly and Rose learn to accept differences, or will the snowflakes’ land be melted?”

Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Anastasia Butcher’s engaging tale is an imaginative adventure that will delight readers of all ages as they follow along on the snowflakes’ quest to protect their individuality from the fairies that want to change them. With vibrant artwork to help bring Butcher’s tale to life, “The Story of the Snowflakes” is an unforgettable story with an important message on the beauty of being different from everyone else in today’s world.

Readers who wish to experience this inspiring work can purchase “The Story of the Snowflakes” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.

Fuel Like a Footballer: Eat Smart, Knit Strong

Fuel Like a Footballer: Eat Smart, Knit Strong

At Rupizix Studio in Coventry, we believe creativity needs energy — the same kind footballers rely on. Hand‑knitting demands focus, stamina, and precision, so we look to athlete nutrition for inspiration.

Footballers eat foods that fight fatigue and sharpen concentration — rich in antioxidants, slow‑release carbs, and healthy fats. Inspired by that, we’ve created three simple snack combinations that help makers stay energised through every stitch:

  • Oranges + Cashews — quick vitamin C boost and magnesium for steady energy
  • Oats + Cherries — slow carbs and antioxidants for focus and recovery
  • Plums + Sunflower Seeds — hydration and vitamin E for lasting stamina

These combos aren’t just snacks — they’re creative fuel. Try them while you knit, design, or craft, and feel how your focus lasts longer.

If you’ve tried our combos and felt the boost — and want to discover more energising pairings — let Rupizix Studio help you find your next favourites. Get the “Fuel Like a Footballer” ebook and explore more food combinations that keep your creativity flowing and fatigue away.

Cary Elwes, Gates McFadden, Walter Koenig, Manny Jacinto Added to FAN EXPO Portland Celebrity Lineup


Portland, OR, November 27, 2025 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– The FAN EXPO Portland celebrity guest list has always featured great variety, and five new additions to the 2026 lineup for the pop culture extravaganza are further proof of that. Cary Elwes (The Princess Bride, Saw), Gates McFadden (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Picard), Walter Koenig (Star Trek, Babylon 5), Manny Jacinto (The Good Place, Star Wars: The Acolyte) and “Peggy the Dog” (Deadpool & Wolverine) will now attend the event set for January 16-18 at the Oregon Convention Center.

Elwes gained wide acclaim for his portrayal of “Wesley” in the 1987 classic The Princess Bride and reached new audiences by headlining the Mel Brooks spoof Robin Hood: Men in Tights and later Saw. He also recently appeared in the Tom Cruise features Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One and Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning and portrays “Mayor Larry Kline” in Stranger Things 3.

McFadden had the key role of “Beverly Crusher” in TNG, reprising the role in Picard, Prodigy and other iterations of the franchise. She is also a stage actress, choreographer, director, teacher, and was the host of more than 300 episodes of the podcast “Gates McFadden InvestiGates: Who Do You Think You Are?”

Koenig is best known for his recurring television portrayals both of the hated, intensely driven “Alfred Bester” (Babylon 5) and the likable, perpetually cheerful “Pavel Chekov” (Star Trek). Koenig’s film work includes the first seven Star Trek feature films, for which he earned two Saturn Award Best Supporting Actor nominations. His many other films have been independent projects with challenging roles.

Jacinto played “Jason Mendoza” on the full four-season run of The Good Place (2016-20) and later appeared as “Lt. Fritz Avalone” in the blockbuster Top Gun: Maverick. Also among his more than 50 TV and film credits are runs on the Hulu series Nine Perfect Strangers and the animated series Hailey’s on It!

Peggy, earning the title of “Britain’s Ugliest Dog” in a national competition there, has gone on to stardom as “Dogpool” in the Marvel Universe in Deadpool & Wolverine. A portion of proceeds from her appearance at FAN EXPO Portland will support a local charity in the Pacific Northwest.
