Writerly Ways

I received a great review and I did my writerly ways post on what you can learn from the criticisms to be found in a review. You can check it out here. I wrote it over on Jana's blog since it was for my novella using that nom de plume.

Still no steampunk pictures but it might take a few days.

I've worked on NOTHING but Soldiers of the Sun. I want it out the door before October if at all possible.

Some fan art and photos

And a few fun links.

But first here is this video again. I forgot to ask, does anyone know who two of the women are, the first and the third? (I know the second is Margaret Cho) and oh, my apologies for making you see Jack Black twerk. Funny thing, this video came up in the Victorian funerary lecture (mainly the line about taking selfies with the deceased. it's a very old thing and wasn't considered tacky then).

Watch on YouTube

This is one I took. It's horrible. Why I took everyone's backs while dancing not sure but only kept it because the Temple guy is on the far right (apparently he started out with pants but got hot...) in full regalia.

The next few are not mine. You can go to Into the Pit photography on facebook and like his page. he has nearly 800 pictures so it might be awhile before mine are ready

These are the whiplash tribal fusion dancers (another reason to move to albany/athens, I could do something like this)

This was the little boy I mentioned and I'm assuming mom.

This fellow made both the backdrop AND the sasparilla it dispenses! Steam does bellow out of it.

And this is a gift (from evil_little_dog) and drawn by the talented Crossmirage. I think it's lovely.




And the promised links. more on Vikings

Jack the Ripper sent to me by Rain and ELD

ancient civilizations I don't know about half of these. fascinating.

I thought some of you might enjoy youtubing the music the steampunk ball featured. ( the ball's play list )
