Public Service Announcement
Reports are reaching the desk of Beth Brower that some readers worry Vol. 6 is the end, and that Emma and her compatriots are going to be endlessly floating on a sea of unresolved storylines, plots, and questions. Let said readers be very much assured this is Not So. The journals of Emma M. Lion encompass (approximately) four years of Emma’s life. 1883 was the first year. We have now barreled into 1884. There are many happenings to come. Emma 7 is well on its way.

IN WHICH BETH COMMITS TO KEEPING HER READERS MORE INFORMED...AND POSSIBLY ENTERTAINED.

EMMA M. LION IS AT IT AGAIN�
Hello all. It’s January 2021. I’ve not posted in six months. Shameful. I partially blame myself, and I partially blame Emma. Why? Because anyone who spends any time in Emma’s company is bound to get into trouble one way or another.
And so I partially blame Emma. However unfair that may be.
I ha...
