Olive Tree Equestrian Center and Kennels
I use the screen name Owlshine, formerly Owlish Olive. Other screennames I've used are andsunshine and howowlish. You can call me Owl or Olive or Owlish - whatever variation is easiest. Ruby seems to prefer Owlbutt, so I'm clearly flexible. If you know my real name, you're welcome to use it as well, but it just sounds weird at this point!
I live near Memphis, Tennessee. I'm a thirty-something mom of one. My daughter is in elementary school and the most amazing pain in the ass there is. I seem to be slowly collecting a personal suburban zoo with four dogs (Remus, Kaylee, River, and Oz), a cat (Minerva "Minnie" McGonagall), and a very antisocial rabbit (Elsa). Right now I'm a housewife, raising my daughter with my wonderful husband. I also volunteer as a co-leader of my daughter’s Girl Scout troop. Somewhere in between that all, I find time to be a writer, play games, and do art.
I've been playing play-by-post roleplays since I was eleven, though the last few years have just seen me writing private stories with good friends, rather than joining a game. I've written in equine RPGs, canine, human, fantasy, and anything else you can think of. I've probably tried it all. I began playing horse SIMs/PBBGs around the same time, starting with Horseland, but that wasn't able to hold my interest long-term and since the major changes I have given up on it entirely. Now I play primarily on Equiverse where I breed Dressage Andalusians and Akhal-Tekes; Driving Clydesdales, Gypsy Vanners, Miniature Horses, and Paints; Endurance Arabians; Show Jumping Dutch Warmbloods, Trakehners, and Welsh Ponies; and Western Appaloosas and Quarter Horses. I’ve also got inactive accounts on some other games, including HorsePhenomena.
I like to do HARPG/DARPG style art, usually on other people's lines/bases since I'm lazy, but I have done my own lines, too. I'm also a wannabe coder, having taught myself HTML and CSS starting at eleven, but I'm very out of practice and have not yet learned how to code on Equiverse beyond editing my own layout.
Poke around this site if you're curious and you can message me with any questions on Equiverse or Discord.
I can be most quickly reached on Discord. You can also find me on DeviantArt, but I don't check that frequently for messages. Below are also the different browser-based games I play or have played in the past.
