The Hall of the Moontain King

It’s been well over a year since I wrote anything that wasn’t work related. Not sure what happened in November of 2024 that might have depressed me to the point of giving up all hope.

It’s a mystery! 🤷

Here’s something I probably started back then, starring two of my favorite characters I semi-created; Caecelia and Mootella. Read their previous stories HERE and HERE. This is very much an homage to the scene in Duck Soup where Chicolini (Chico) and Pinky (Harpo) meet with Trentino to report on their mission to spy on Firefly (Groucho).

Traudl Quest: Part 7

I thought this would be the final entry, but it started getting way too long. So I promise this is the penultimate chapter. It wraps up next week!

When we last left Traudl, she was deep in the evil domain of the fiend, Mozebarr. I already spoiled that this isn’t the final chapter, so I won’t pretend she fights and defeats him this time out. So… there goes that excitement.

But, please… read anyway! I promise it’s good!

Traudl Quest: Part 5

Ok, I’m a day late, but in my defense, I did have this just about ready to go out last night, but it was a holiday. I was doing my duty, as an American, to partake in all the most important patriotic duties: watching baseball, eating hot dogs, and watching fireworks while songs play, unironically, that sound patriotic, but are actually critical of some aspect of American society.

Anyway, Traudl’s quest continues with a shocking new development. Could she have found what she was looking for already? Obviously not, there are still a few more chapters to go!

Traudl Quest: Part 1

Back to the well this week. Here’s the first part of something I wrote almost twenty-five years ago. I’ve basically re-written from the ground up in order to detach it from a larger series I was working on (that never went anywhere), and also to make it a little less on the nose than it originally was. A little more background and explanation will follow.

Enjoy!
