Pamela Rentz
Excerpt:
"My order said plank house," Skinny Charlie said. "Teepee isn't the same as plank house." The images on the glowing banner in the clerk's hands gradually faded before re-setting and the spinning letters dropped down again: Skinny Charlie's Orbiting Teepee."Won't make any difference to the consumer," the clerk said.Charlie wasn't worried about the consumer. He was worried about the official who would check the sign permit that said plank house and then the sign that said teepee.
