A Woeful Lack of Misdirection

We here at the Institute have been out of our minds. The whirlwind tour of parts unknown like the Bay, the Windy City and coming up The Cactus Con Capital. We have been studiously gathering more threads to weave the fabric together and have neglected the reporting of it.

Of note: in the Bay, two members of the Institute came across one consumed by Dark Imagination. Vile filth poured from the afflicted's mouth but there was nothing our adventurers could do. If the police were called, who would ...

Migration Completed

The annual migration to the South was a smashing success. Able to feed you comers the pap you desired, made sure that the next volume of Hatter's tales flew from our arms. More than happy to dole out a preview of what's to come in October. In addition, Redd and Hatter appeared on stage to battle for Wonderland.  Our esteemed adventurer was there to take in the action. But most of all we were able to sway to the rhythm of the sea of good people we are always privledged to reconnect with. Our w...

Dateline: The Threads Converge in the Breach

Multiple whispers are all coming together. With the revelations of the third book about to be released on the world we are still lighting the lamps and burning the oil for so many other things. Not the least of which is the yearly migration to the south where the hordes converge to feed on the mass hysteria.

In order to feed this frenzy we are trying to fix the press and have at least a nibble for show in July. No promises.

The city continues to turn and we continue to pour over our mail and...

Dateline: On the Cusp Of the Great Plains

For those of you worried about my absence, never fear. My sabbatical was spent communing with the Caterpillars and brought forth a glorious burst of insight currently being poured into the dictation of more of Hatter Madigan's adventures. Red, as my Caterpillar was known, graciously divined another snatch of the perilous, tumbling adventures of our hatted friend.

On a sad note, Dear Boris wandered into jabberwocky territory and was promptly confronted by one of the beasts. Though a valiant...

Dateline: the depths of the pacific ocean

The clock is about to strike midnight and we have just boarded the Looking Glass submarine off the coast of San Diego and set our compass directive to 'north' after an exhilarating and edifying 5 days in booth 1717 at the comic con. Hopefully some of you reading this were able to visit our booth where Hatter M Institute members Col. Barlow, Boris Liebman and Colin J. MacLeod along with interstellar author Liz Cavalier and the renowned Mr. Beddor enjoyed the company of readers, true...

Dateline: San Diego Comic Con Booth 1717

Cheers from San Diego! It was the ultimate scavenger hunt as Col. Barlow, Miss Mars and I followed the underground parallel map leading us to the illustrious bedlam of the San Diego Comic Con. We exited through a portal only to discover ourselves in Booth #1717 standing beside a beaming Mr. Beddor surrounded by the Looking Glass Wars novels, Hatter M comics, Princess Alyss scrapbooks and all manner of art and artifice from the Wonderland he has worked so tirelessly to reveal. In moments...

Dateline: Subterranean Los Angeles

Finally. A message from Mr. Beddor.
A brief synaptic flash of Morse code stating geo-4coordinates, cryptic and enigmatic, the message was neither any more nor less than a savvy inter-dimensional tracker would need. Accompanied by Col. Barlow, our intrepid Hatter M Institute watchdog Miss Mars and a thermos of Irish coffee, I set out in search of Mr. Beddor. The geo-coordinates had specified we follow a map of a parallel Los Angeles, a 4th dimension map. As we stepped out into the...

Dateline: Los Angeles

The submarine docked in San Pedro Bay and after a harrowing skeuter ride up from the south bay I arrived back in Los Angeles as the clock struck 3:33 am.

Fully restored after 3 hours of isolation tank deep sleep I arrived at the Hatter M Institute on the decaying and somewhat noxious Miracle Mile early this morning to discover Mr. Beddor's private office overflowing with arcane research, unopened invitations to tea, discarded, crumpled pages from the ms for book 3, a broken mirror and a...
