Happy birthday, MLK!
This is late, but that’s okay,
I hope, ’cause Flopsy had a dream—
Or half of one–that made it seem
Like carrots were the root du jour.
And isn’t that what freedom’s for?

Moo – Chapters 17, 18 and 19
Two of these you may have seen;
The new one’s Chapter 17.
The “Not Exactly Hamlet” post,
Supposedly about a ghost
And where the spark of Moo first burned,
In Chapter 18 has returned;
Something Wicked This Way Smells
As Chap. 19 returns as well,
So now we’re all caught up, with plenty
Story left for Chapter 20.
Sorry for the eight-week wait–
I hope that never’s worse than late.
Moo – Chapter 16
Moo – Chapter 15
The Bad News: The NaNoWriMo train has left the station, but Flopsy and Mopsy are still on the platform, stuck for all time at an official word count of 16,208.
The Good(?) News: The Narrator desperately wants to help tell their story, because it’s been so desperately dull for the past 150-odd years…and things are about to get a lot odder. We just have to get through a bit more excruciating exposition: The Narrator.
Moo – Chapter 14
Finally, some progress on the convergence of Flopsy, Mopsy, Helen and the Narrator: Everyone, Including the Narrator. Probably too late to meet the NaNoWriMo deadline, but that’s the way the banana crumbles (assuming, as always, a freeze-dried banana).
Moo – Chapter 13
This was typed and posted entirely on my phone, so I apologize for the (lack of) formatting. Hope the link works, too. Mopsy, Flopsy, Helen, Flopsy and the Narrator. No, Not the Narrator. But Definitely Flopsy.
Moo – Chapter 12
Again, not really worth reading. It’s just, “Moo. Moo.” and then, “Moo.” Really, just skip ahead to chapter 13. This is chapter 12: The Narrator
Moo – Chapter 11
Finally, a little progress on the story. Or at least the promise of progress in the relatively near future, thanks to Helen’s perseverance: Mopsy and Helen.
Moo – Chapter 10
Desperately seeking a narrator. It’s getting harder and harder to follow the dialog in the absence of attribution. Mopsy, Flopsy and Helen.
Moo – Chapter 9
Still no narrator, and the strain is beginning to show. Another 1200 words, though: Flopsy, Mopsy and (eventually) Helen.
We’re into five digits! That’s practically a whole hand!
