Wednesday, October 17, 2018 It’s Hidebound Hump Day, and another episode of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers. There was not a Straightlaced Saturday chapter last week, so today we pick up where we left off a week ago. Remember I’ve mentioned that this serial was originally presented as a “culinary” mystery. All of the random “things” that … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 13
Wednesday, October 10, 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day, and another episode of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers.

Saturday, October 6, 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day, and another episode of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers. If you enjoyed my 1920s stories about Paisley Idelle Peabody, aka Pip — keep an eye out. My characters begin to feel left out when I start new stories.

I hate snow, so I was really missing the … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 10
Saturday, September 29, 2018 It’s another “Revealing” Straightlaced Saturday. The first blogger I got acquainted with — back in November of 2012, for National Novel Writing Month, was Mary J McCoy-Dressel. In 2015 she provided the “things/ingredients” for Wednesday’s episode and for this one. Mary made an off-handed, fanciful comment about destiny… and as you saw in episode … More A Revealing Straightlaced Saturday — Cornelis Drebbel 9

Wednesday, September 19, 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day and the next episode of the steampunk serial. The next random “thing” a reader left to drive the plot of this story should come as no surprise — “steam engine.” Let’s see if I use it in a way you expect. (winks) Previously with Copper, the Alchemist, … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 7
Welcome back to the Victorian Era. I’m so happy to be here with all of you. Thank you for coming back after my weekend away. I’m glad to report that I accomplished a lot on “Atonement in Bloom,” my current work in progress — or one of them, that is! I’ve never given a shout-out for something local … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 5
