The Worth of The Anchor Part 1: Journey On

The Worth Of The AnchorPart 1: "Journey On"The Ladies have asked Ursula Du Mer to look after the Society while they’re away. But a quiet week is soon disrupted by an untimely arrival who brings troubles of her own.Author’s NotesIt’s a slow start, I admit. But remember that this is one story in 5 chapters, not 5 completely new episodes. I want you to snuggle in, get to know the new characters, and get an idea of the setting before I really start raising the heat.In the first version of this idea, the All-Rounder was going to be watching over the place. Don’t worry. He’ll show up in the future, and you’ll love him. And we were going to be cutting back and forth through the season of the off-screen adventures he was having.Then I realized it would distract from the main stories of each episode. But the idea kept bouncing around my brain. When the idea of starting a membership came up, I wanted to give you exclusive episodes, but I knew that in the middle of producing a full season, I couldn’t also do another full season with the full cast at the same time! So I needed a smaller story, different characters, and one location. This fit the bill.Oh, and the title’s from one of my favorite songs from the musical Ragtime. It’s early in the show, about voyages (both physical and emotional) and helps introduce the audience to new characters. I’m hoping to draft in their wake. ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member. It's just $5/month or $55/year.
