Frank’s Chronicles

Welcome to Frank’s Chronicles! This little corner of the Whispering Inkwell is devoted to all things Frank-our resident story teller among the group of invisible friends here at the The Whispering Inkwell.

Among these tales include(but are certainly not limited to: Letters to The Entertainer, The Author’s Journal Entries, tales about Frank, as well as other Honorable Mentions.

    Days On The Clock

    I hear you’ve got 113 days left on the clock. In the world of “Invisible Friends,” that’s just a few chapters left in a very long book. We’re over here at the Author’s desk making sure the world you’re coming back to is just as colorful—and maybe a little more organized—than the one you left.

  • Frank And Mountain Royalty

    Frank And Mountain Royalty

    I’ve always wanted to see the mountains in person. I just recently learned that my family actually traveled through the Virginia’s way back in the day. Some of them were there so long they even had a town named after them. I would like to go to that town just to see it. Whitmer, West…

    The Welcoming Soiree & The Goo Goo Muck

    Be warned though, I do believe that Frank has volunteered to oversee the musical portion of the evening. From the way he is talking, he already has three different musical lists to choose from, depending on ‘how he feels the night is progressing’. Heaven help us all. He has already mentioned songs like, ‘Born free’,…

    Are We On…Vacation?!

    We are… wait for it… on vacation. Dun. Dun. Dun. Amazing. Unbelievable. And for one moment, I am all alone, enjoying my solitude. It’s my one minute of peace. One that is sure to be short lived once Frank gets done exploring the little apartment that we are staying in for this trip.

  • The Unfinished Entries

    The Unfinished Entries

    I wonder, over the years, how many of my journal entires actually look relatively complete? I’ve noticed that there have been several entries that have dropped off in the middle of a sentence over the years. It makes me wish that I could go back in time and see what caused so many disruptions….

    The Birth of The Invisible Friends Chronicles

    I have started a new writing endeavor recently-you may have noticed if you’ve been around for a while. It happened quite by accident. I had been really struggling to write letters to one of my boys, who has been away from home for quite a while and wouldn’t be home for several more months. I…

    The Plaid Prince & Elaine Was Right

    Hey Kiddo, Well, The Plaid Prince has arrived! A brand new cousin. It’s looking like he is already going to be quite a character.
