Hello, my chuckaboos! Thanks for coming back to the #steampunk riverboat, after the detour for my book launch of A Ghost in the Kitchen.

This week’s random reader things

The riverboat couldn’t get underway without “things” from readers. Olga Núñez Miret left an ace of hearts. Resa McConaghy gave us brooch.

Thanks to Dan Antion and for letting me use some of his photos.

I realize it’s difficult to keep up with serials. Since I didn’t do a chapter of The Delta Pearl last week, I’m writing an extensive recap today. It makes for a long post, so feel free to skip the recap.

Hello, my chuckaboos! Welcome back to the #steampunk riverboat, The Delta Pearl.

This week’s random reader things

I could have used this as a “thing” last time, but it seemed more important this time. What? Paddlewheel! Two readers left it as a “random thing.” One was Ginger, of Murphy’s Law. Thanks for your loyal support, my chuckaboo! The other reader to leave “paddlewheel” was Kevin Cooper. Check out his blog and music.

Wait! There are more reader things. Both are perfect for this Steam Era story. Sally Cronin supplied a mangle. Fraggle (aka photographer C.J. Hyslop) gave us a skirt lifter.

Thanks to Dan Antion and for letting me use some of his photos.

I can’t do a post on this solumn day without a brief moment of silence in memorium of a day of horrific loss, of extraordinary heroism, and for heroes who still struggle from how their health was damaged that day.

Thank you kindly. Now I’ll get to my post.

Hi, I’m Teagan Ríordáin Geneviene. Welcome to Jazz Age Wednesdays!

As you might have guessed last week, when I did cover reveals for two Roaring Twenties books, I will be doing at least one book launch soon. I’m aiming for October. A few of you took a moment to reblog my cover reveal, and I really appreciate it. You’re pos-i-lutely the berries!

Preparing to Launch!

Hello, my chuckaboos! Welcome back to the #steampunk riverboat, The Delta Pearl.

I was pressed for time this week, so let’s get right to it.

This week’s random reader things

G. P. Cox gave us a thing that was a name, Sir Reginald La Felin. That actually continues last week’s thing from D. L. (Denise) Finn a Black Cat. Mary J. McCoy-Dressel added Smokestacks to the setting. Then Deborah M. Zajac gave us Jelly Babies — yes they were around in the Victorian Era! Doctor Who would be envious.
