Oh, hey, it's time to do some of these again! Well i did just get the 2024 edition of Oziana, the annual literary magazine of the International Wizard of Oz Club, so there's new material to write about. This issue is about the early history of Oz, and the first story is "A Green Fix" by Kelsey G. Kappel, with illustrations by Anna-Maria Cool. Ozana Ozina is a contractor from the Winkie Country looking to score a major project in creating a roadway to the Emerald City. Her unique take earns her the job, but in the end it turns out the bricks she are using are not what the people of the Emerald City expected. It's too late to change it, so what to do? It's a short but clover story that explains not only the origin of the yellow brick road, but also an early characteristic of the Emerald City. And it shows just how packed a very short story can be.
