The Clockmakers Promise

The Clockmakers Promise

In the misty town of Maplebridge, an old clockmaker gives a young boy a brass watch that doesn’t tick, well not yet at least.
Years later, one single sound will remind them both that some promises never run out of time.

✨ Plus, a quick update about Auntie Jo Jo’s new podcast Legacy Lore, now streaming on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!

Sources / Inspiration:

  • National Watch and Clock Museum, The History of Timekeeping in America

  • British Horological Institute, Origins of the Modern Clockmaker

  • Smithsonian Institution Archives, American Innovations in Horology

  • Literary inspiration from early 20th-century morality fables and mentorship tales preserved in the Library of Congress Folklife Archive.
