    About this series

    The quirky citizens of Slacksville are back in another sidesplitting adventure in the well-received series reviewers call “refreshingly witty” and "extremely imaginative.”

    There’s a thief in Slacksville! Officer John Cop is stumped in trying to nab the mysterious culprit known as Peep who has been pilfering Slacksville’s citizens along with his criminal gang. When he makes a plea to the people for help, he gets all kinds of inexpert “superheroes” coming out of the woodwork to flex their…erm…talents. Can these misfits work together to bring peace to Slacksville?

    Reminiscent of funny favorites including The Adventures of Captain Underpants, the Wayside School series, and My Weird School. The Tales from Slacksville Series can be read in any order.

      The William Trevor Reader: “Sunday Drinks”

      Feb 14, 2023

      A maxim in creative writing pedagogy is that you should not write so-called “slices of life.” This is near enough a rule that the phrase “slice-of-life” has taken on a negative connotation and is used pejoratively. To say, in a workshop, that someone’s story is “slice-of-life” is to say that nothing really happens, that all … The post The William Trevor Reader: “Sunday Drinks” appeared first on The Millions.
