Description:

As it says in the title: This is an episodic retelling of The Blue Castle as femslash.
Barbara Snaith, called Barney by her friends, has attracted Deerwood society's censure by being an independent woman who lives alone on a small island in Lake Mistawis, wears overalls and fixes her own car. Valancy Stirling finally decides to break out of her drab life under the thumb of her family. Their friendship changes life for them both.

Each part is a complete story that can be read by itself.

Notes:

How to Make Your Own Dust Pile covers about the first half of the plot of the original novel, in as far as there is a parallel. The romance proceeds rather differently. I wanted to explore how The Blue Castle would be different if Barney was a woman - a completely different social situation in the 1920ies, of course.
I am currently thinking that I will write some scenes for the second half of the book eventually, exploring more of those changes.

I wonder what it would be like to live in a world where it was always June is an Epilogue set about a year after the events in the novel.
