Wriggly Little Assistant

Jobediah has finally become a wizard, and all it took was hard work, determination, and one itsy bitsy pact with a malicious nightmare entity. But now he's free to pursue his interests, like being admired, and serving as a professor at the esteemed Worwick College for Wizardry, Werebeastery, and Welding. Still, there is that pesky bit about endless servitude to the nightmare entity. It's a good thing Jobediah has a plan to escape and keep his magic in the process. All he has to do is brew a potion so powerful no one's managed it--and try not to destroy the college, or himself, in the process. Simple, right? If you're curious about the mischief and mayhem of the World of Wriggly, this novelette is the perfect place to start. If you're already familiar with the world-through Wriggly Little Hands or other novels-this story serves as a prequel and a fun side quest.
