Cat Attorney Self-Discloses: The Lumpkin Diaries Begin!
If you know The Book of Squidly Light, you may know that the Cat Fatty Lumpkin is on record as lamenting his regrettable Lack of Thumbs, and you may also know that Another Character has been privileged to read his diary. Almost no one else has seen it! However, due to...
So the Squid are Telepathic? And They Apologize to Shrimp??
TechieSquid had finished The Prayer of Profound Apology to Our Brothers, the Shrimp, made necessary by his careless mental use of the derogatory word "shrimpy". Unaddressed, such thoughtlessness could affect the sleeping minds nearby and create ripples of diplomatic...
No-Name Stupid Does Not Speak
I'm not going to say anything. As you should probably know at your age, horses don't talk. (Not meaning to seem condescending . . .) Now if you were an eight-foot-tall sparkling alien Squid with really nice manners, it would be different, because they can talk and...
A Super Villain Speaks
I am a person of extraordinary abilities, and I have always known this. No ordinary mind could have seen, even as a child, through the delusionally sentimental fog of optimism, romance, love of family, devotion to 'god', self-help, artistic ideals and other such...

SQUID: You ask what was I thinking during that historic first meeting? Well, it could have been historic, but for the conduct of the Eartheans later that same minor-sun-cycle. As it turned out, it's a wonder we even . . . but I have been instructed not to say too...
Sometimes It Takes a Child . . .
" 'You, kid!' she called out an open window. 'Get everybody to the Dirty Dog in thirty minutes. Step on it!' 'Step on what?' asked Nuri. He was brilliant, though very young, and did not have a particularly literal mind, but the constant switching between Arabic,...
Halycon Sage Ruminates
What if you were writing an imaginary world and you suddenly found out it might just be real, that every dog, cat, buzzard and eagle in it had feelings and you were responsible for them all? And for all their eggs and relatives and ecosystems? What if some funny...
My Walrus Baptism
Baptized by a walrus, snuffled by an elephant . . . and don't get me started on parrots! If you've read The Book of Squidly Light or The Life and Times of Halycon Sage, you might know that I love animals. And earlier in life, spaced decades apart, I had sudden...
