A Verse in the Lonesome October: October 3rd

Summarizing each day of A Night in the Lonesome October, in verse!

A cat, a bat, and
faithful hound Snuff. Nothing much
else astir. Peaceful.


This is a riff on a passage from The Hand of Oberon

 "Good evening. Lord Corwin," said the lean, cadaverous figure who rested against a storage rack, smoking his pipe, grinning around it.
    "Good evening, Roger. How are things in the nether world?"
    "A rat, a bat, a spider. Nothing much else astir. Peaceful." 


It seems to want to be a haiku, but it doesn't quite get there. I've fixed that part.

Snuff is a good boy.

Mazeworks Recruitment Drive

Once upon a time, in the misty recesses of 2001, I started a Play-By-Email Game. I ran it for fifteen years and then decided to wrap it up on a high note. The players liked the world, so the game went on under new management. That GM passed away unexpectedly, but we didn't want to end the game under those circumstances, so another player picked up the GM duties. Real life has caught up with him, so I am once again taking reins of a Zelazny-influenced play-by-post. Please drop me a line if you're interested.
