2026 Coaldale Haunted School UPDATE 2!
Hi Everyone! π Yesterday we brought in the rest of the props and continued setting up for the 2026 Coaldale Haunted School.

The only thing left now is costumes and weapons for photos, which we'll bring in on Day 1! I was also pleased overall with the practice run-throughs of our SKIT. It's a few minutes, slightly longer than last year since we've inc

FIRST MATE makes an Appearance!
Hi FANS!π Captain CHOO would not exist without the steadfast support of my wonderful wife, Denise.π I always acknowledge her valuable contributions on every book's Dedication Page, but I thought it was long overdue that she actually shows up illustrated in a Book. So... in the upcoming Book 12, the Captain will step aside hanging out with the Main Character on the Colouring Page, so that First Mate - The LIONESS of Penzance can say hello to the Fans instead! π After all,
