Day 23: It’s a WUnderful Life, isn’t it?

Today marks the start of a soon to be holiday classic! One that you will want to watch every year, just like some of those other holiday classics that turn up every year around now.  I am, of course, speaking of our new feature adventure, starring the one and only, Mr Wu!

Hold on to your cuppycakes because you won’t want to miss a single minute of It’s a Wunderful Life!

(editor’s note: This series contains extreme melodrama, existential dilemmas and not a little bit of out and out pathos. Please don’t yell at me.)

it's a wonderful life

Thank goodness Bee the Bear still has her magical wand from the last adventure.

Oh dear, we know where this is going, kinda sorta, don’t we?

Be the Bear,

Day 21: The wait is over! the finale of the Wizard of Wu

Hard to believe this adventure started all the way back in September, but there you have it! It’s all over but the flashbacks! And now, for the final episode of The Wizard of Wu!

finale of wizard of wu

All well that ends well. Now let’s have some cuppycakes!!!

See, I told you that I wouldn’t do anything dastardly to Mr Wu.  But will we let Mr Wu just relax at home and eat cuppycakes and drink hot cocoa with his mom and the twinkies (not to mention Princess Pinky, who is NOT a bear to be messed with!)?

No, we will not! Tune in Monday for episode 1 of It’s a WUnderful Life, starring, (of course,) Mr wu and all your favorite pandas!

And if you haven’t bought YOUR copies of all the Panda Chronicles books, what are ya waiting for? They make great presents for anyone on your gift list (including yourself!)

31 days of pandas continues tomorrow!

Evilness is one thing, but there must be snacks!

The panda kindergarten MUST be under a spell from the Wicked Witch, don’t you think?

Tune in Tomorrow!

Day 17: Bring Me the Slippers!

The Wizard of Wu is in it’s final week and it’s all Wu all the time, and excitement doesn’t begin to cover it! Oh my ears and whiskers, things are getting exciting here at The Panda Chronicles!

The wicked witch has sent her hench-pandas out to capture Wu, so that she can get the magical bunny slippers. I did promise there would be NO flying monkeys, but I didn’t promise there would be no monkey business!

Ride you pandas! Ride! An evil wind breaks!

Day 11 The Wizard of Wu Continues…

…Good thing the action has become slightly less scary, at least for a little bit. Fans of Mr Wu’s latest adventure will be happy to know (well, maybe not…maybe you LIKE waiting a whole week between episodes) that we will be featuring Mr. Wu’s adventure on most weekdays, until it’s over, in order to bring you another short holiday theme Wu-self-story.

Huzzah!

the good witch saves Wu and Co.

Good witch Bee, the Bear, to the rescue!

And just another gentle reminder to check out Whidbey Life Magazine’s Indiegogo project! In the meantime, keep being the bear! More Wu-venture this week!

Day 4 and Episode 13 (gasp!) of the Wizard of Wu

Oh boy! I’m so excited at how many panda satire loving people are showing up for 31 Days of Pandas! But don’t think we are going to leave Mr Wu hanging in the breeze in his most recent adventure, The Wizard of Wu!

Things are really getting scary in today’s episode, the 13th in the series! Hmm…I said that last week, but this time I really mean it!  That cat is just so evil!

(Note to Mehitabel’s fans: it’s fiction. Get over it.)
