Can’t wait to see what backgammon adds, hopefully, it gives them an advantage over those that are hunting them.

Cover Copper Alchemist Woman n Trousers Welcome to Hidebound Hump Day. Back in 2015 he three things” for this chapter were from Donna Parker at Yadadarcyyada. Her writing is uniquely wonderful as she shares her thoughts on a variety of things.

Aside from the random things, Donna’s inventive blog name inspired an important part of this chapter. Be sure to visit her blog and look around, read some posts. (Bet-ya can’t stop at one.) I think you’ll be glad you did.

There it is, my chuckaboos! The port’s sonar has detected the approach of the steampunk submarine. It’s rising to the surface now, and we’re ready for another chapter of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers.

Happy New Year Teagan. I took a bit of time off so late to the party. Looking forward to the “little shifting of ‘the in to the out’… Tucking a bit from this reality into the next” What could go wrong?

Wednesday, January 2, 2019 happy new year Teagans Books cats plane Happy New Year, my chuckaboos! It’s a new year, and appropriately enough our heroes have a new mode of transportation. We are no longer on the road locomotive. The #Steampunk train is now a submarine!

No matter how we’re traveling, I’m happy to share the journey with you. My heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you for sticking with me throughout 2018 — from the last episodes of the faery serial, Thistledown – Midsummer Bedlam, to short stories of the Pip-verse for Jazz Age Wednesdays, to a completely different 1920s serial Hullaba Lulu with artist Rob Goldstein, to the launch of Atonement in Bloom, to reruns of this steampunk serial. You, each one of you, made it a wondrous year for me.

Cover Copper Alchemist Woman n Trousers It’s Straightlaced Saturday! Welcome aboard the #SteamPunk train. Our destination is the northern Pacific coast of the USA, during the Victorian Era. We’re headed for another episode of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers.

Back in 2015, the random “three things” for this chapter were provided by John W. Howell at Fiction Favorites. As some of you might remember, this serial was originally a culinary mystery. John sent some delicious things to drive the episode. Consider yourselves warned that reading may give you the munchies.

Since I know you have a lot of other things to do on the weekend, I’ve divided this rather long chapter. The third thing will play out on Hidebound Hump Day.
