"Shake" pages. This was a tragic episode for Innkeeper and

other than Brian Walker...
Fortunately, Innkeeper restored the
status quo ante in that very same issue of SHIVER AND SHAKE by making his own guest
appearance in Wizards Anonymous and tampering with the time machine that the
two potty wizards built in hope to get back to the days of dear old King
Arthur's reign...

A very useful index..

Hope you can show that another time..maybe when you review it..
I plan to highlight that episode when I review Wizards Anonymous some time later.
DeleteReading the Shiver editor one it shows its the editors money at stake and they are just doing a job for him..so thats how the spooks make there money..
ReplyDeleteIt's strange that this post appears not to be showing in Google search. It's the second time that I see this happen - my post about the first year of Sh&Sh was also affected. Weird...
ReplyDeleteSpooky!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the post is too long and needs to be broken into smaller posts..?
I looks like I have now solved the Google search problem - it appears my scans were too large at 200 dpi. I reduced them all to 150 dpi and all appears to be in order.
