I know you’re out there, I see you in the steampunk venues all over the world, living out this obscure niche lifestyle that most people can not muster the imagination to comprehend. I see you out there and I share your enthusiasm for all things steampunk with all that it implies. It is all of you that have created this exciting sexy genre and keep it alive and breathing, as I said “ALL IS WELL”.
This is my first post and I am so excited to engage with you across social media. I encourage you to step out of the shadows and embrace your brothers and sisters and myself as we see our lives through brass goggles and seek to connect with others inflicted with this super power of imagination.
I have read a lot of blogs and articles through the years that attempted to define us and admittedly my sometimes analytical mind likes to do the same, but this is not possible, as the term steampunk or we as “Steampunkians” come from so many places of origin with so many different life experiences. It is these factors thrown aboard sky bound pirate ship with a crew dressed in brass armor and armed with clockwork swords, bound to take us to any number of unscrupulous harbors only defined by a billion different possibilities that only you yourself can perceive its end.
So here we are. I have joined with Donjaline Hope, http://donjalinehope.weebly.com/ an up and coming author whom I have great respect for and love her writing, much of which she has not published yet but is in the process of editing.
