The Fascinating         Worlds of
 Lindsay Petersen

Lindsay Petersen is a native of Leeds, Alabama, who grew up feeling she had been born decades later than she ought to have been – and perhaps even in the wrong Leeds.

She has lived all over the globe, but most enjoyed Paris, where she studied and improved the French passions of l’amour and gourmanderie, devising arant-garde combinations of the two.She also has fond memories of her days as a graduate student in Delhi, where she won a coveted first in her studies of the Kama Sutra.

Having conquered one world, she focused her considerable energies on motorcars, gourmanderie, oenology, and expressing the muses of poetry, song and dance. Of her paintings it's been said that they're worth a million words. Those who read her prose value her words more than a thousand pictures ("Math is hard!").

As a sideline she extensively investigated emollients, trying to determine just how soft her skin could be ("Wonderfully so!" exclaims her husband) in her monograph, "Fifty Grades of Shea."

So finely tuned are her senses of taste and smell that, when spectroscopes need calibration, she is called in as a benchmark. It has been proposed that the the accuracy be calibrated in 'petersens.'

She lives and travels with her husband, who called himself "the luckiest man in the world.” Lindsay Petersen agrees with him.

Lindsay's exploits are hardly unique in her family. Her great-grandmother suggested to Coco Chanel some changes to Chanel Number 4. The rest is history.

Recently Lindsay Peet was given access to her unpublished papers, including some fictions in the steampunk erotica genre. Here, in "The Fascinating World of Lindsay Petersen" he shares them with you.

Surely you recall how Kate and Dougray saved Queen Victoria and, quite likely, the British Empire. Even more surely, you wondered what happened to them then? 
As it happens, that question may now be answered. For a few years Doug and Kate lived quiet lives in Scotland; he running the Loch Ness Monster concession bringing customer to the local merchants, who pay him; and she, working to understand the world she'd been dropped into, studying languages, culture and martial arts. 
Until Dougray is called by His Majesty's Secret Service to investigate a threat to Tesla's power-transmitting tower in northern Ireland. Unbeknownst to him, Kate follows him.
From there a journey of revenge and enlightenment starts, rolling across Europe in the Orient Express. Along the way we spend time with Mata Hari, Winston Churchill, P. W. Wodehouse, Arsene Lupin, Nicola Tesla, Kemal Ataturk, Aleister Crowley and George Gurdjieff. 
We spend time in boats, trains, airships, lifeboats, and Topkapi Palace. 
Not as graphic as Reluctant Chrononaut, but still sexy, and lots and lots of Kate!
