You've seen my rave about Clockwork Zero's jewelry and posting photographs of her work. Now you a $1 raffle ticket will give you a chance to win this most excellent piece, created by her specially for the fund raiser:

Chained Vacuum”
This unisex necklace is part of the Industrial Evolution series of cyberpunk jewelry by Clockwork Zero, steampunk designer. Shiny magnesium, delicate filaments and wonderful electrodes are sealed inside a glass vacuum tube. The chain she made uses hardware, dark bronze-tone metal beads and a dark complimentary chain. Perfect for a cyberpunk lover.” Donated by C.A. Manestar.

Ooh, did I tell you I bought a necklace from her? I love it!

We are currently in discussions re: a pair of earrings, too. *g*

No you didn't. Is it one of the vacuum tube ones like the one she's donated? If not, bid bid. Only $1 a ticket!!

Is there any reason why non-writers couldn't donate items for the raffle, either now or in the future?

From: [identity profile] ellen-datlow.livejournal.com


No reason, as long as it's something people might want ;-) Contact me...--do you have my email address?

Your "short story critique" item makes me wish I'd ever written anything worth critiquing. ;-)

It is...


very neat indeed, but I like the Imp better. Not that it matters, I'm not sure I've EVER won a raffle prize, but I keep trying. ;-)

No, I linked the pic above - it's got a compass and a plane. Very aviator!

I think I will. :)
