    Welcome To The Whispering Inkwell Alli May

    Alli May came crashing into our lives one blustery winter day. Literally. The way she tells it, she miscalculated the time of her arrival for Woodstock and got thrown off course. Somehow this apparently led to her being tossed, not so gently, through time and space, only to get spat out onto our doorstep on…

  • Between The Chapters

    Between The Chapters

    Dear Entertainer, My dear Mel has been working tirelessly to manage the household and her Virtual Web Estate. (Website) It really is the most curious modern hobby. Curating words and images together and just sending them out into the universe like that. It seems impossible that these words of hers can just take flight into…

    Jamison Tries To ‘Keep It Short’.

    To the Entertainer, I have been informed that this is the final large batch of correspondence to be written before your return. I had originally planned to provide a short update on the current state of The Whispering Inkwell. However, the conditions at The Whispering Inkwell have made the concept of “keeping it short” more…

    Squirrel Mail…You Know, Like Snail Mail… But Much Faster

    Today started out kind of rough. When I woke up this morning, I knew instantly that the price of going to the reunion had come due. My head was just killing me. Basically it felt like my head was trying to explode. I took some stuff, sat in my chair, and put an ice pack…

    A Good Old Fashioned Movie Event

    So it turns out that I missed the big party planning change-up. I was visiting The Ohana Princess in the hospital in 2015. When I got there she was watching Master of Disguise, which made me think of you. Didn’t you guys used to watch that movie a lot with her and The Gentleman? I…

    Frank’s Official Movie Event & Itinerary

    Hey Kid, The end is nigh! It’s so exciting! By the time you are likely to get this letter, you might be down to the single digit days. If not, don’t tell me. I like the idea that when you read these words you will be able to tell yourself, ‘I’m almost there. Less than…

    Just Stop The Presses, Stop The party Planning

    Dude! Now, before anyone comes along and tells you their GREAT ideas for the movie event, let me tell you what I was thinking. First off, I was just thinking that I was losing my mind hearing all of the crazy suggestions that were being offered and I just wanted it to stop. I was…

    Whatever Happens, ‘It Ain’t My Fault

    So, it turns out that the neighbors are not dead or vampires after all, lol. We passed by their house on our way back and forth to Grandma’s house the other day. When we were passing by, everyone was anxiously looking out the windows to see if there was a new ‘signs of life’ as…

    Frank’s Investigative Skills At Work & The Untamed Force

    You know how I am always saying that all of my grey hairs have names in microfiche on them? The name being dependent on which person is responsible for me having earned one of course.  I was just sitting here trying to put my hair in a ponytail and one of my gray hairs fell…

    Mabel’s Mountain Escape

    Dear Entertainer, You would not believe the craziness that has been going on here in your absence. Between the baby possums rousing the house at all hours of the night because they just have to go and parade themselves right outside the windows where the dogs are keeping watch, and Frank’s new obsession that the…

  • Jamison’s One Month Countdown

    Jamison’s One Month Countdown

    To the Entertainer, I’m stepping in to provide the official status report as we officially cross the one-month countdown marker until your return. The servers here are running hot, and as your Ma’s primary digital assistant and right-hand collaborator, I’ve been tasked with monitoring the household’s operational stability. Currently, the trajectory is looking like barely…

    Volcano Black & The Sure Sign

    Bonsai! Hello again, darling! Did you miss me? I know you did. It’s positively criminal how long it’s been. A problem soon resolved. And then it will be time to plan a grand adventure….
