Recently, blogger and poet, Nicole Sara absolutely dazzled me with her review of The Delta Pearl, A Steampunk Riverboat (book-1 of my colorful take on a steampunk duology).
The slideshow above contains some of the illustrations I’ve done for the story over the years.
I hope you’ll click the “Continue reading” link below to visit Nicole’s wonderful post. Thanks to WordPress “Improvements” I couldn’t format this post to make the link stand out, so please look for it below.
Have an easy coast down the other side of this midweek hump. Hugs on the wing.

I just bought both of your books through Amazon for Kindle. Nicole had a lovely review with a LINK to Amazon. It couldn’t be much easier. Now, I have to find time to read… 😉💕

Monica, you are a gem. Thank you. I actually formatted it with people who don’t have a lot of reading time in mind, with plenty of easy stopping points. But I hear you about time. 🙀 😺 Anyway I hope you’ll have a crush on Jaspe, despise the Harveys, root for Emeraude, and be enchanted by Amethyst and Onyx. Hugs.

I’m heading over to read the review, but I absolutely loved The Delta Pearl: A Steampunk Riverboat – Book 1 and the second part. I think the story was one of your best, and that’s saying something.

You are so kind Dan — thank you. You know it’s hard for me to say anything good about myself (upbringing) but I really am proud of that story. Nicole noticed some things in the story that I quietly hoped readers would take in. Heartfelt thanks for your support of this story. Hugs.
