The White Ship

Tonight on Radio Riel Steampunk, an early work from H. P. Lovecraft's Dream cycle stories. Sit back, relax, and have your squire bring a coal from the stove to spark the hookah.

This story was first published in the November 1919 issue of The United Amateur. We regret that we can only select stories of Lovecraft that were published before 1923, as later works are not clearly in the public domain in the United States.

 Listening party at 7pm SLT (California time) at Ahab's Tavern on the Iron Bay waterfront in New Babbage.

The Adventures of Phineas Frakture

Phineas Frakture, an itinerant New Babbager, checked in this morning with some exciting news:

"Starting today...The Adventures of Phineas Frakture has been picked up as the first Steampunk weekly series on BigWorldNetwork.com! Every Wenesday, a chapter will be released and can also be downloaded on iTunes (coming soon). This story was originally on my website for a week, but was taken down when the contract went through...sorry if anyone was trying to find it."
