Today, Gentle Reader, I welcome the brilliant Mur to my blog for a visit. Mur and I are old chums, she gave me one of my first interviews on her popular podcast, I Should Be Writing. I’m still a devout listener and heard recently she has a new book out so I invited her round […]

Reddit AMA Ketchup ~ 5 Silly Questions, 14 Recommendations, 8 Bits, 2 Confessions
5 Silly Questions, 14 Recommendations, 8 Bits, & 2 Confessions I had a crazy fun time doing an Ask Me Anything on the Fantasy Reddit. I had a few questions I was expecting, one or two that I wasn’t. I realized, I’ve never done anything like it here. I’m hoping you, Gentle Reader, feel […]
In Which Gail Interviews Steven Harper
As you know, Gentle Reader, occasionally my bog is hijacked by . . . Other Authors! Today please welcome Steven Harper, author of steampunk The Clockwork Empire series. We shall serve him tea, even though he takes it without milk, and ask him silly questions. About Steven Harper, the Author! Tea or coffee and how […]
Interview Round Up
I’ve been doing a number of interviews recently, Gentle Reader. Or better said, I did a bunch a few months ago, they mainly dropped around the release of Etiquette & Espionage, and now I’m finally getting around to telling you about them. Apologizes all around, the time seems to be getting away from me all […]
Gail Carriger Interviews Lev AC Rosen About Steampunk
Today, Gentle Reader, I have an interview with the lovely Lev. His book, All Men Of Genius, is a kind of Twelfth Night meets steampunk meets Oscar Wilde. Cross dressing, ho! He and I also went to the same undergraduate university. Odd, I know. About you, the Author Lev AC Rosen Tea or coffee and […]
Gail Carriger Interviews M.K. Hobson Author of The Native Star
Today, Gentle Reader, please join me in welcoming the wonderful bustlepunk extraordinaire M.K. Hobson to my blog. I have asked her to come by for a spot of tea. A while back some of you may recall I read and reviewed her novel, The Native Star. The first in a series. I described it as, […]
In Which Gail Interviews John Anealio
Today, Gentle Reader, this blog has been hijacked by that most alien of creatures . . . a musician! *gasp* I can hear the sputtering of tea all around the globe. I know, but musicians happen sometimes. Even to authors. I adore John’s stuff, most particularly his George R.R. Martin Is Not Your Bitch song, […]
In Which Gail Interviews the Lovely Morgan Keyes
Today, Gentle Reader, one of my occasional series of interviews with other authors (gasp!) Please kindly welcome Morgan Keyes to the Parasol Protectorate arena. I asked her to stop by because her upcoming book looks like so much fun, as was exactly the kind of novel I would have devoured as a child, or, indeed […]
Interview with Adam Christopher ~ Tea, Shortbread, New York & Other Comestibles
Today I welcome to my blog a visitor from afar. In customary Gail fashion, I have sat him down, foisted tea upon him, and insisted he do that most horrible of things . . . gossip about himself. Adam was one of the very first podcasters to interview me for Writing Habits a few years […]
Confession Time from Gail Carriger
Just because I feel like being terribly droll here is a list of silly confessions . . . Weird Gail Carriger Confessions I like adverbs and I think they are much maligned in the popular press. I talk to animals as if they understand. To the robin, “My, aren’t you handsome?” To the cat, “You […]
In Which A grave Decision is Taken
I am having near endless problems with LJ. To the point where, Gentle Reader, I’d rather not blog at all, it is so very vexing to work with LJ + Lion + Firefox. Also, right now, I am in a Finishing School editing crunch and moving between computers plus a big trip on the horizon. […]
A Sharp Dressed Man ~ The Dapper Steampunk Gent by Tee Morris
Today, I am very proud to host the renowned Tee Morris writing on a subject near and dear to my heart: the well dressed man! Lord Akeldama would most certainly approve. So, for that matter, would Madame Lefoux. Without further ado, Gentle Reader, Mr. Tee Morris . . . Clean shirt, new shoes And I […]
