Things To Do While Visiting Atherton’s Magic Vapour
You could listen to me read a piece of spam mail aloud (O, My Viagra, My New-Found-Land!)
You could play a Twine game (The Perils of Sir Reginald, Bart.)
You could look at pictures of me in costumes, or even read the related Edwardian-era mystery novella (Alas!)
You could read Stranded!, a Strand-Magazine-Based form of Illustrated Entertainment (start here with a sort of explanation: Stranded!)
...or you could just sort of explore... there is a lot of material here, and (I think) much of it is Very, Very Good.

Really enjoyed it. It kept me reading. I really liked the characters, they came out so nice, even in such a short story.
Very well done 🙂

Yay! Thank you! It was fun to write, too- and gave me an excuse to use some of my handwriting fonts…
(I LOVE fonts- can you tell?)
Great story! The different fonts really added to the tale.
Yay! Thanks Lori! And I am glad the fonts helped- fonts are a bit of an obsession with me.
