Not a trick, but hopefully a treat. My book (in ebook form) has gone live on Amazon. I'm still finessing getting the paperback published. Full disclosure: the formatting of the ebook is a bit clunky, but it allows you to zoom in on all the costuming details. #Over60Cosplay #costumer #sewist

Oct 15: Comic book. When my dad was stationed in Germany (1961 - 1965), they didn't have American TV on base, so I read a lot of Comic books. Batman was one of my favorites, and I especially liked the villains. Here's Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn. #over30cosplayhalloween #over60cosplay #costumer
