Pancake & Hen

ABOUT THIS SERIES

  Pancake & Hen is by far the most rewarding thing I've ever written. It was an idea I kept on the back burner for a long time, and when I finally began writing these short stories, it was like a trip back to the imagination of my youth. Yes, it sounds cliché, possibly even lame, but it was terribly fun to write of a time when anything is possible and the mind can create swords from sticks, conjure up monsters in every shadow, and make each new experience so fresh and new. I hope to get these illustrated someday, to have pictures to complement the writing. I think that of any of my books, this collection is definitely the most marketable to the widest audience of readers.

Pancake & Hen: Visions of Childhood (2005-07)

GET YOUR COPY!
  This is the collection of most of my short stories about Pancake & Hen, which are about a curious pair of children. The boy is energetic and prone to flights of fancy, while the girl is a bit tricky and likes to act more grownup than her age. They explore the world with the wide-eyed imagination and open-mindedness that only children have. Everything around them is fascinating, and anything is possible. Each chapter is a stand-alone short story. Included in this volume are the following short stories:
  •   The Nature of Names - Leave No Child Unnamed, Lest They Disappear 
  •   The Castle in the Willows - The Disenchanted Forest  
  •   Contrary - Everything But Right 
  •   King of the Ants - Learn to Live Like Another 
  •   Of the Elderly and Kissing - Clearly Two Horrible Things   
  •   Touching the Sky - Of Angels and Eagles   
  •   Caverns and Toadstools - Faerie Secrets and Hidden Dragons

  This is my second collection of Pancake & Hen stories. I've decided to start the book with the introductory chapter from the first book, to keep a little continuity.  This was a revisitation of some of my favorite characters ever.

  •   The Nature of Names - Leave No Child Unnamed, Lest They Disappear 
  •   Pancake and Puppy - Everyone Loves Pancakes 
  •   Brown Bread and Wool - Real Boys Have Chest Hair 
  •   The Mud Hole Trap - Bullfrogs and Baths 
  •   The Ghost in the Garden - Howls and Hauntings
