This is the designated area for my thoughts, ideas and snippets of stories, perhaps never to be finished. Enjoy.

Alister in Wonderland : Part I

"Recite," stated the Caterpillar.
"Shant!" Exclaimed Alister in the well trained reaction of a mischievous little boy.

The Caterpillar sat upright.

"Why?" it asked, sending a puff of smoke into the air.
"I don't want to," explained Alister, folding his arms defensively.
"Why?"

Alister was taken aback. He didn't really know how to respond to this.

"It's not fun," he ventured, unfolding his arms and standing a little straighter.
"That is not correct," said the Caterpillar. "I quite enjoy it."
"It's not fun for me," explained Alister.
"You?" spluttered the Caterpillar, "Who ARE you?"
