April Guest Blog post #1
I was told the guest post would go live some time this month. I didn’t think it would be this quick!
The Care and Feeding of Authors while Practising Social Distancing (or How to support your favourite Creators during the Dark Times.) was posted on Mark Hayes’ blog, The Passing Place, on 1st April (not an April fools…).

NEW: Adventures of Viola Stewart COMPLETE eBook series set
Introducing the complete Adventures of Viola Stewart eBook series in one place!
When I go to events, there are always people who prefer eBooks over paperbacks. So, I’ve created a USB card with all the eBooks in one place. This was originally designed for event and convention attendees to buy eBooks direct from the author (that’s me!) 🙂
I was going to launch the eBook set at the April Adelaide Comic and Toy Fair – but, as it was cancelled due to Covid19 lockdown, that is no longer possible. So I’ve added them to my webpage shop so you can enjoy them at home. At this stage they are only available to post to Australian addresses.
What you get:
The USB card contains all seven eBooks of The Adventures of Viola Stewart Victorian steampunk mystery series (equiv to all three paperbacks). All eBooks are in both mobi and epub formats to download on your preferred devices.
What does it save you?
The USB card contains the entire series (direct from the author) for just AU$13.00, (save approx AU$6 compared to the full set with RRP online prices.)
(Price doesn’t include postage, within Australia. $1.40)
You can buy your copy here.
(limited number in stock)

Introducing Kraken Ink Tea!
And to celebrate, the first 20 people to order some Kraken Ink from Wyverstone Tea will receive a voucher for a free eBook of Doctor Jack with their order!
It all started at the 2019 Adelaide Steampunk Festival. Wyverstone Tea was doing tastings at the event. And they had purple tea! (Well, blue tea that turned purple with lemon)… but the only one they had was based on licorice (not my favourite thing). I asked if there would be any other purple teas in the future…
In March 2020, Ali from Wyverstone Tea contacted me. I’d spurred her to make another tea based on Peaflowers (which makes it blue). She’d devised one for me to taste – and would I like to name it? Ha! Of course, what else but Kraken Ink! You can find out more about Wyverstone Tea at: www.wyverstonetea.com.au
Kraken Ink tea will be available online soon. And when the current isolation is lifted, visit them at Fleurieu Roast, in the Eco-Village at Aldinga, South Australia. You will also be able to find them (post-isolation) at markets at Meadows Country Market on the second Sunday of every month, and often at Hahndorf market on the third Sunday of every month.
Follow their facebook page for up to the minute information.
