Sorry no steampunk story this time. However I do have the first episode of my new Science Fiction novella. I do hope you enjoy it. If you do please subscribe at: fiction.chrismoody.net.
Today’s story is “The Queen of Clockwork”. Written by Jonathan Wood.
He has been published by the following places:
Weird Tales, Fantasy Magazine, Farrago’s Wainscot, and Behind the Wainscot. It is forthcoming in an anthology of Victorian-themed anthology by Prime Books, Electric Velocipede, Beneath Ceasless Skies, Crawlspace: The Best of Farrago’s Wainscot, and several other places.
The story is read by Rachel Beverige known on Twitter as: chatterboxreb.
The first 1 ½ minutes of the interview have mild echo and noise issues. These unfortunate effects cease and do not recur after the initial 90 seconds.
Links to Chris Fisher’s other work can be found at the (desperately requiring aesthetic renovation) site, http://www.gettingby.net or by searching chrisfixedkitty on Twitter, Flickr, Etsy, Livejournal, or Ravelry.
Dan Sawyer, recently asked me if I would run the start of his new novel Down From Ten. You may remember that wrote the Christmas story for Steampod Cold Duty. This is the podcast novel he will start releasing June 20th 2009. If you like this you can look for more at: jdswayer.net
This first 10 minutes is totally family friendly, though the full book will not be.
Today’s story is introduced and read by our new co-editor Paul Campbell.
The story is The Virginal Seas of the Moon by Mrs. Melinda Selmys. She has previously enjoyed some modest success with the steemed editors at Pseudopod, Shimmer, Byzarium and others.
The Podcast Bailout was written, produced, edited by John Bell’s Bell’s In the Batfry.

Would you like to become an editor here at steampod? I can’t offer any monetary consideration for this, and can’t promise there will always be much to do.
There are times, in which I get stories, which I feel are good, but not so great that I start pulling out contracts to prepare for them right away. Its these that I would like to get a second opinion on. I am also hoping that you will submit first opinion on pieces as well.
If your interested in assisting me, here is what I need you to do e-mail editor@steampod.org. In this e-mail include the following:
Why you should be my editor
What your favorite story of the podcast has been, and why
What experience do you have in Steampunk in general (costumes, cons, etc)
How much time do you think you’ll have on a weekly basis to be an editor?
What is your favorite steampunk movie/book/etc and why?
You don’t have to go in that order, but those should be the things you cover. Please make it in essay form, and use proper English (either Queen’s English or American).
If you are chosen, you will be informed. Once its been decided it will be announced on the podcast and probably by an earlier blog entry as well.
