Wallie the Imp on Evil Accessories

(Wallie and the Evil Goblet) Wallie the Imp is very excited about Halloween. In response to the Daily Post’s challenge on blending genres and styles, I decided to help him write an instructional guide on how to make your Halloween decorations happy in their new home. This is fantasy from an instructional point of view.

Wallie the Imp in Ten Minutes

Wallie likes Imps. Wallie is an Imp. Perhaps that’s his trouble.

Wallie and I have been enjoying reruns of the show “Once Upon a Time” (a show that endlessly frustrates my Friend, for reasons I will not add even in footnote). The other day I compelled my Friend toContinue reading “Wallie on the Importance of Study”
