Camy Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Mr. Parker's second Halloween story is above all fun. It's also liminal, fantastical and most definitely (stupid misguided Carl) comeuppanceable. Read it here Link to comment
Merkin Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 It's amazing how costumes embolden the personalities behind the masks, even those of kids still trying their personalities on. This middle school dance is destined to become a part of the school's lore, since it leads to such a spectacular set of outcomes--or should that be 'coming outs'? Once again Cole demonstrates his way with words, to the point that I am convinced that behind his mask he is actually a middle schooler... Link to comment

Chris James Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Cole is right, I always listen to my inner child when I write. Remember the old saying: Youth is wasted on the young. I would take that one step further and say that naps are wasted on the young, they have more energy to burn...unlike the rest of us. Zzzzzzzzzzzz Link to comment
