Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
Whew. I've spent all evening painting up the next picture--I liked it so much I decided to give it the full treatment--and I'm not near finished. Maybe tomorrow. Right now I'll scream if I spend one more moment Photoshopping.
We Got Us: Thank you! Boober and Wembley are my two favorites...
The Silence of the Bells - I flatted this on a computer that does not have a working tablet thanks to Wacom's refusal to post updated drivers for its older tablets. And then, bored out of my skull and unable to line up enough brain cells to write, I went ahead and painted this up. Man, I spent...
Sidebottom on Joke Day? Y'know, maybe Boober would deliberately let Sidebottom loose on that day so he could stand back and let Sidebottom yuk it up. There might be a story in that. As for fashion, I gave up trying to figure out Fraggle fashions a while ago. All I know for sure is that...
Oh, Boober. You are fun to draw.
Leaf Basket - Ever have a drawing for which you just couldn't come up with a title? No? Er... me neither.
Statuesque Sidebottom - I loves me some Sidebottom. After I drew the Skeksis a few posts back I had some more time to kill, so I drew this. I have no...
*chuckles* Boober may be a drudge, but he enjoys it. He actively takes pleasure in scrubbing and cooking and aiding the sick, so more power to him. And with Sidebottom to pull him back when he starts getting too boring even for himself, he's stable.
I've noticed that Boober is rarely brave on...
Yep. PPB was a second-season episode, and you can see that by the end of the series he was much more pragmatic about things. He even took pride in being "Doctor Boober Fraggle." This story takes place some years after that.
Hmm. He's the launderer, cook, and doctor of Fraggle Rock. He deserves...
Hee hee. More winter clothes are coming up. Hmm, I wonder what Sidebottom wears when he has to bundle up?
Boober doesn't actually start lecturing Wembley about germs. One, he learned from the time Wembley got the pebble pox and doesn't make a practice of freaking out his patients by talking...
Today I saw Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer at the Center for Puppetry Arts. And since I got there early I spent some quality time in the Museum. After the most uncomfortable half-hour sitting on the floor, getting a crick in my neck from looking up, I had this...
Captive Skeksis: The Garthim...
Heh heh, the publication is leading up to something, but I doubt it's what anyone would anticipate. Let me just say right now that Fleet Scribbler is in no way involved. There will be repercussions, though.
Billie is growing up in a house full of weirdness. I don't think she's learned the...
Growing Together
Part 2: I Just Called to Say...

It was later the same day, and the Muppets had done all they could do to rehearse, prepare props, and otherwise get ready for the upcoming show, and were ready to finish up and leave. As sometimes happened, they had been...
Newsmanfan: I understand what you're saying. I like it when writers really show you the scene, add in the details that make it real rather than just outlining it and calling it a day. I try to do that because it feels more authentic. Sometimes I have to rein it in because too many details can...
On that story line? I don't have anything else in mind. I just wanted to drop an idea I had--that Scooter's Machiavellian streak came from his uncle, but he has very different goals--into a story. I'm writing other fic, though. Currently drafting the second chapter of Growing Together.
Boober bundles up anyway. His hat and scarf are to help him avoid catching cold, according to some sources. And yet he's nekkid otherwise... but, yeah, it must be quite cold, for Fraggles to freeze solid so quickly. By the way, I suspect that Cantus comes from a colony in a much colder...
Thanks. Scooter seemed pretty self-centered and manipulative when we first saw him; I'm guessing that was his uncle's influence. As time went on he became a team player, but I think he's still a bit manipulative. He just hides it behind that cute, puppyish attitude of his, and uses it to help...
I writed a thing about Scooter. This one is 100% Fraggle-free.

The Prince

"Entrepreneurs are simply those who understand that there is little difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their advantage."
-- The Prince by Niccolo...
Yeah, I hear you. I just watched Pebble Pox Blues, and the sight of Boober taking care of Wembley at the end brought back those memories. Sometimes, when you feel really crummy, having someone there to cuddle you and feed you juice makes so much difference.
And, heh heh, I thought of you when...
