Back in the Real World

By Arlen Posted on October 7, 2021 Posted in Costuming 2 Comments

This last weekend was MileHiCon, and our friend Rose hounded us suggested politely that we should do costumes (she runs the costume contest). Since this was the first convention we’d been to IRL, we thought we ought to protect ourselves …

My story A Better Design will be coming out on Friday, June 18th. Normally, I wait until a story is actually available before posting about it, but in this case, the medium requires some pre-planning… The story is being published …

Bunny II – The Wrath of Bunny

By Arlen Posted on May 20, 2021 Posted in Other 4 Comments

A couple of weeks ago I posted about the bunny that had invaded Anna’s car and chewed up the wiring. Since then, Anna has been paranoid about bunnies anywhere near her car–even after dousing the car with the mint scent …
