So, the next volume in the series going to be ... C is for Chimera. Here's the launch post. The word has some interesting meanings and ideas to play with:

My assigned letter this time is F. So I need to write a chimera story called F is for Something. Any suggestions? The one that's going round in my head is a chimera superhero yarn called something like Fishmonkeyman Saves the World. But then, it's hard to get away from perhaps the most famous chimera in literature: Frankenstein's monster. Perhaps I could do an F is for Frankenstein tale?fantasy, conceit, daydream, delusion, dream, fancy, figment, hallucination, illusion, nonentity, phantasm (also fantasm), pipe dream, unreality, vision
Not sure. If you have any suggestions for F-words I'd love to hear them...
