“Unintended consequences” is the title of chapter 5 of The Dragon Lady of Stockbridge, and that’s what Rebecca faces. Magic can do all sorts of things for you. But they aren’t always the things you expected! If you’ve been following along, read the new chapter. If you haven’t been reading my story of magic in the Gilded Age so far, start at the beginning.

Chapter 6 should go up a week from today, by noon, as scheduled. However, I’m going to be on the road, and using a new laptop as well, so there could be “unintended consequences” for me. Like Rebecca, I’ll try to cope with them. Sometimes I think it’s easier to deal with magic than with new software. Magic, at least, has rules.
