Here’s a link to the pdf file of my award-winning short story, which won the Andrew Britton Short Story Competition this year. This is a fantasy story set in a re-imagined Dark Age period, and takes place at Yuletide. Enjoy!

WREN AND WOOD: OAK MOON

PLEASE NOTE: ALL ORDERS PLACED BETWEEN NOW AND JANUARY 3, 2010, WILL BE SHIPPED ON MONDAY JANUARY 4, 2010. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

For those of you who didn’t already see my tweets and Facebook posts, I wanted to mention that the book “Steampunk Style Jewelry” by Jean Campbell was released earlier than expected. It is now available on Amazon for ordering in time for the holidays. I have a copy right here in front of me, and I can tell you it’s gorgeous. Not only does it include three of my own original jewelry projects (the Horological Faery Gadget necklace shown above, as well as Gearrings and an Airship Captain’s Ring), but also several projects by other artists and a wealth of information about steampunk, including modding, movies, antique shopping, cosplay and more! This is the most amazing craft book I’ve ever seen. You want one. 

I will be at the “Celtic Christmas” party at Tir na nOg Irish Pub from 3:30-8pm this Sunday, with lots of new jewelry. Whatever does not sell will be listed here after the party. There will be live music, Irish & Scottish dancers, great food, drink and lots of craic. This event benefits the Andrew Britton Foundation, whose annual short story competition I won this year.

  I made these one-of-a-kind earrings with 5-pfennig coins, fleur-de-lis charms, and faceted Czech glass. Hanging from brass leverback earwires. Only one pair available, the item shown here is exactly the one you will receive. Earrings measure 2 inches long, not including earwires (image is enlarged to show details).

The coins themselves are a bit of a history lesson. One reads “Bank Deutscher Lander 1949,” and was one of the first coins circulated in the German Federal Republic after WWII. Uncirculated coins of this type can be worth as much as $50, according to online sources. The other coin, which features the same image but reads “Bundesrepublick Deutchland 1950,” is a standard circulation coin issued from 1950-1999, and removed from circulation when the euro was adopted in 2002. The coins feature oak leaves on the obverse, and wheat on the reverse. The fleur-de-lis, or “lily,” is an old European symbol, often associated with France but widely used as a design motif.
