Howard Miller is a ten-year-old boy trapped in the body of a thirty-something-year-old man. Never more comfortable than when he’s dressed in sweatpants and a hoodie, he is a self-confessed coffee addict, baseball geek, and a fan of the Ottawa Senators. Born creative and notoriously impatient, Howard has always had a passion for writing. He believes it's far harder to write funny than it is to be funny, so he works hard to develop his craft.

He chose to write about a disgruntled sock (who wouldn’t?) that disliked living in gym shoes and was plotting to escape in the dryer.

He and Sarah still can’t agree on the proper method of folding socks…
