Wednesday, March 6, 2019 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day, my chuckaboos! Unfortunately I still haven’t gotten my agoraphobic self on the road. Even without my “messed-up-ness,” a cross country relocation is a lot for one person, physically and mentally… and I’m no spring chicken… So, please forgive me for being scarce. I miss visiting other … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 33

Wednesday, February 20, 2019 Welcome to Hidebound Hump Day, my chuckaboos! When I wrote this episode back in 2015, I was working on a novel called The Guitar Mancer.

Wednesday, February 13, 2019 Happy Valentine’s Day, my chuckaboos! I know this image is not from the right era, but the dashing man looking all afternoonified, made me think of something Cornelis might do. I think Valentine’s Day around him would be positively naty narking. Back in 2015, Christoph Fischer sent the “things” for this chapter. Christoph … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 30
Wednesday, February 6, 2019 Not to repeat myself from my Saturday post, but… Happy Chinese New Year. Happy Year of the Earth Pig! Now that I’ve gotten that out of my system.

Wednesday, January 23, 2019 When I wrote this chapter back in 2015, I was experiencing a lack of energy. It made me relate to these images of worn-out, abandoned locomotives. Since my characters sometimes reflect my experiences of a given moment, I went to my manuscript with the intention of exploring what a tiny magical … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 27
Saturday, January 19, 2019 Welcome back to Straightlaced Saturday!

Wednesday, January 2, 2019Happy 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.

Saturday, December 29 , 2018 Here we are, in that limbo between Christmas and New Year’s. It’s still a festive time, but it is rather a “between” time. However, the #SteamPunk train has arrived at the platform and we’re ready for another chapter of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers. Although the mode of transportation … More Straightlaced Saturday — Cornelis Drebbel 24
Wednesday, December 26 , 2018 I hope everyone who celebrated any sort of holiday this week had a joyous and relaxing time. I’m always hearing people say “Christmas is all about families.” Well, I don’t have a family, but I enjoy the holiday in my own way. Festivities were perhaps a little restrained this year for … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 23
Wednesday, December 19 , 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day! The #SteamPunk train wears festive holiday lights today.

Wednesday, November 28, 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day, my chuckaboos! (I do love the Victorian vernacular, even if it is harder to use than Roaring Twenties slang.)

Do you remember I told you … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 19
Wednesday, November 21, 2018 Welcome to Hidebound Hump Day. Find your seat. The #SteamPunk train is preparing to leave the station. Oh, and buckle up, because we may encounter some dangerous curves.

Wednesday, November 7, 2018 Hello, November! It’s National Novel Writing Month again — or #NaNoWriMo as it’s also called. I have more going on than usual, so this year I’m doing the editing version. I’m bookizing the third 1920s novel of Pip and Granny Phanny’s adventures, A Ghost in the Kitchen — Three Ingredients 2. I’ll keep you … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 16
Wednesday, October 31, 2018 Happy Halloween, everyone! Welcome back to the spontaneously written, #SteamPunk serial, Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers. Everything about the story is driven by the random things that were sent by readers, back in 2015. When I say everything, I mean it — even the location. Although no one … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 15
Wednesday, October 24, 2018 Heartfelt thanks to everyone who got on the party bus for the launch of Atonement in Bloom!

If you missed the launch, don’t worry. … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 14
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. My blog-writing time is limited to the weekend, and it was a very busy one. So without further ado, here’s chapter 12. Previously with Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers Chapter 11. Felicity thought one … More Hiedbound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 12
Saturday, October 6, 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day, and another episode of Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers.

Keep an eye out in this episode. … More Straightlaced Saturday Day — Cornelis Drebbel 11
Wednesday, October 3, 2018 Welcome back to Hidebound Hump Day, where we continue our Victorian (#SteamPunk) adventure from Straightlaced Saturday. This episode brings up some health matters for the characters. That wouldn’t be surprising if you knew that I wrote it in March of 2015, during a huge snowfall. 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 26, 2018 Thanks to everyone who visited the virtual art show, Under the Sea. I preempted the Straightlaced Saturday edition of this serial for that post, but today the steampunk locomotive is back on track.

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
Saturday, September 15, 2018 Did the allure of the word “revealing” lure you to my clutches? I’m giving a shout-out to the fabulous Mae Clair who has just revealed the delicious cover of her next novel! The big release of the book won’t be until January, but you can pre-order End of Day here. I don’t … More A “Revealing” Straightlaced Saturday — & Cornelis Drebbel 6
Wednesday, September 12, 2018 You can also click here for the video. You’ve arrived at Hidebound Hump Day! As you can see, I had a special treat for this chapter. Chris Graham (the Story Reading Ape) did the above animation, and I’m tickled pink! His character, Artie the genius chimp, has been here several times. Before Artie … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 5
Saturday, September 8, 2018 Thanks for being at the station for this rerun of my steampunk serial with a Victorian setting. This adventure was written spontaneously, with “three things” left by readers (back in 2015) driving every element of this story from the setting to the characters. Writing Process I enjoy alteration, as you will … More Straightlaced Saturday — Cornelis Drebbel 4
Wednesday, September 5, 2018 Welcome to Hidebound Hump Day! I call it hidebound because Victorians are sometimes described that way. It might be hard to decide who the “hero” of this story is, but everything revolves around Cornelis Drebbel. I suppose Cornelis is a bit of a tortured soul, due to the accident of alchemy that … More Hidebound Hump Day — Cornelis Drebbel 3
Saturday, September 1, 2018 If you saw my Wednesday post, then you know that I’m trying to lighten my workload for awhile. To do that, and to prepare you for what will eventually be coming next, I’m re-running a past “three things” style serial. It’s Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers — a steampunk serial with … More Straight-Laced Saturday — Cornelis Drebbel 2
Wednesday, August 29, 2018 “Hidebound Hump Day” and “Straightlaced Saturday” — Re-Beginning “Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers” as prelude to a new serial. Last week we reached the end of the line, with the final episode for the Jazz Age Wednesdays serial Hullaba Lulu. It was a dieselpunk series, set in the Roaring Twenties authored by … More Jazz Age Wednesdays ― Hidebound Hump-Day
Indies Agree… I love that “Indie” has endlessly different subjects, genres, and formats. I’m happy that every indie author and blogger is unique. Despite all that diversity, it seems that all indie authors agree on the importance of reviews – whether posted in a blog, magazine, or on a bookseller’s site. Oh, I admit to my jaw-dropping … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 33
Update — I passed my ITIL certification exam! Argle-bargle Last episode I had found myself a “word of the day” — shilly shally. I had so much fun with it that I found another word of the day to entertain myself, argle-bargle. While all of you were at the station (and thank you from the … More Train Schedule and Character Recap – Copper and the Rest
Word of the Day Often I think I should have a word of the day. Once I bought a desk calendar of them, but it turned out to be words that none of us would sensibly use under any circumstance, professional, playfully, or otherwise. I haven’t come up with a viable way to give myself a word of … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 32
Three Things & Three Blogs I hesitated to ask for more “things” to fuel the steam locomotive to the Victorian Era, because the serial is nearing the end of the line. What if I got more things than I could use? I wouldn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. However, I still had to have the three things. … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 31
Unexpected Connections I don’t delude myself that my blog serials are “properly” written stories. They are pure unplanned, pantser fun. Since I never know what the next episode will bring, I can’t do advance planning so that everything is properly connected from the beginning. Events and characters show up later than is “acceptable.” I’m aware that flaw … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode- 30
Chugging Along Slowly The steam locomotive to the Victorian Era is almost at the platform to take you to Copper, the Alchemist, and the Woman in Trousers. Although, it’s chugging along rather slowly. One of the landslide of things that derailed the locomotive last weekend was the cold I had Saturday. Happily I managed to fight … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 29
Rewinding It was serendipitous that “three things” from Western Romance writer Mary J McCoy-Dressel fueled the story-line of this episode. While there’s not a typical romance involved, there is something sort of along those lines. Mary has been a great supporter of this blog and all the serials. In fact, if I were to rewind, you’d see … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 28
So the Drama… I’m afraid I gave in to the dramatic again. I might as well tell you that there is another cliffhanger ahead. But you’re forewarned, so try not to scream “Akkk!” about my theatrics when you get there. The multi-talented Sarah Vernon at “Rogues & Vagabonds” sent the three things that fueled the steam … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 27
Thank you! My heartfelt thanks to everyone who checked on me yesterday. Thanks to those who left three things to drive the plot of this serial. And thanks for coming back after that delay! Yes, yesterday the steam locomotive to the Victorian Era was stalled in Migraineville. It was also out of the “things” that fuel the plot … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 25
The steam locomotive to the Victorian Era was hijacked! Dear reader, bandits attacked the steam engine and it is stranded in parts unknown. All I can see is a dilapidated sign bearing the name Migraineville, USA… However, when they found the train was empty of fuel, with no sets of “3 things” to drive … More Bandits Hijack – Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers
To those of you in the USA… Happy Independence Day! In celebration, rather than taking you to the Victorian Era on our usual steam locomotive, this time we’ll bring all our picnic paraphernalia and get on board a red, white, and blue decorated dirigible and soar into our story. Steering the airship is Kathryn, aka … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 23
Energy! Early this year I had a very unpleasant head cold. So I gave my characters, Felicity and Cornelis, nasty head colds too — and funny, sneezing chaos ensued. Last weekend I barely found time to write Episode-21, and was a day late with it. This weekend I had my every-other-Friday off. But all … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 22
Thanks for waiting Welcome back everyone. I’m so glad you waited for the steam locomotive to the Victorian Era. The “three things” for this chapter are from Donna Parker at Yadadarcyyada – Vague Meanderings of the Broke and Obscure, a truly wonderful blog. In Donna’s posts she shares her thoughts on a variety of things. In one … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 21
Caution: Shameless Self-promotion Ahead Thank you so very much to Donna, RC, and Kathryn, who have all sent “three things” to drive this story. All those are waiting in queue. However, the steam(punk) locomotive was all out of fuel when I started writing this episode. Also since I didn’t have “three things” to drive this … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 20
Every picture tells a story… Or it does if the camera is in the hands of Timothy Price at T&L Photos. The photographs make for a chronicle of day-to-day life for Tim and his family in “the land of enchantment” — also known as New Mexico. That family includes a four-footed crew of felines that keep … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 19
Communication Breakdown Communication Breakdown, It’s always the same; I’m having a nervous breakdown, Drive me insane… Led Zeppelin Pardon me for jittering off into a Zeppelin-zone… It was that kind of week. I could describe all the chaos that resulted from lack of communication, but that would take all day. Just watch a clip of the … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 18
What’s in a name? Last time I promised that this episode would reveal the name of the mysterious Woman in Trousers. Her name shifted and altered in my mind throughout the week. But yes, the “things” finally led to the naming of the Woman. I thought to pay homage to a character from an all but forgotten … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 14
I admit defeat… Sassy segues sauntered away. Glib words have gotten up and gone. So far I’ve drafted three beginnings for this post. Then I saved them for another episode — they just won’t do for today. I’ve admitted to myself that I simply don’t know how to start. That usually means I’m truly impressed with someone… and … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 13
Hello everyone, I’m always excited when I’m able to get ahead of schedule on anything, particularly this “interactive, culinary, steampunk” serial. However, I never thought I’d need to have a couple of episodes written in advance because of a bereavement. For the time being, I’m simply unable to talk about it, but it’s just Crystal … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 12
Color My World — Please! Maybe you’ve heard me mention my thing about color. I seem to have a physical need for color. I used to wear black occasionally — it’s a color. However, I’ve seen so very, very much of it in DC, that I avoid it now (except for basic slacks once in a … More Copper, the Alchemist, & the Woman in Trousers: Episode 10
Steam Train Schedule Update Many of you are used to seeing the new episodes of our “interactive” Steampunk serial on Saturdays (when I post them from the USA).
