Four-in -One Showcase

Now when the initial hype is over, I'm breaking my silence to join the choir of those who promote and recommend this remarkable selection:
Four stories
by Grant Gardiner, John Picha, Bard Constantine, and Jack Philpott
A.E. Ducheau, on Smashwords:
"From the first trench coat pocket packed with dynamite, to the last draw off a spent gasper, this ePulp collection cuts a wide, interesting swath across the Dieselpunk genre:

'That Sort of World' wanders the dirty back alleys of prohibition Chicago like a Tarantino nod to the Mobster genre, while 'Pandora Driver' cracks heads as a gas-powered, Frank Miller-penned, New Deal avenging angel. 'The Wise Man Says' channels Raymond Chandler through a high-tech, heist filter, as 'A Friend of Spirits' falls like a sunset over Hemingway's pre-Castro Cuba.

This ePulp Showcase goes a long way to demonstrating the solid thematic foundations of the dieselpunk genre and raises the bar for the sub-sub-genre at least a few notches closer to the mainstream. "

Help Needed

Tome Wilson wrote:

Jordan (Mr. Bodewell around here) is not only a great guy with a wife and kid, but he also runs the steampunk/alternative music label Sepiachord. You might have seen him on Dieselpunks sharing new music with us every day, or you might have listened to The Sepiachord Passport this year. As one of the cornerstones of our community, I love Jordan and everything he does for us.
Long story short, Jordan's family recently got hit with some very serious medical bills. Even with insurance, payment plans, and a second job, Jordan is going to have to turn off everything and close Sepiachord for at least a few years until he can get back on his feet.

So, if you have a few quid and a heart, you can help my friend give his family a good holiday. We may not be able to pay off everything, but we can at least make sure Jordan can keep his family warm and fed this Winter.
