*Gear* AS WAY OF INTRODUCTION *Gear*

“Steampunk is a genre and a subculture that's all about a past that wasn't. We feel free to reinvent that past however we see fit.” - Nick Ottens, Gatehouse Gazette.

Blogging is an outlet for writing and self expression. Many of us blog while holding down full time jobs. Many of us blog while living full and interesting lives. Many of us blog about how boring our lives have become.

Steampunk is a form of speculative fiction that deals primarily in anachronism and alternative universes. It’s roots lie in adventure, romance, and re-imaginitive technology.

Blogging on Writing.com is more then the documenting of the pedantica in our everyday lives, it is about utilising our innate curiousity and ,yes, our creativity to express ourselves about our lives whether they are big or small. Blogging on WDC has become as much about the poetry and the prose as it has about the pedantica.

The purpose of this blog is as simple as it is exciting: let's reimagine our lives as only those on Writing.com can.

To be a featured SteamPunk Blogger you MUST be a member of the SteamPunk Authors Guild and you must be prepared to blog as if you live in a Steampunk World.

There will be a link in "The Steampunk Boiler Room" Open in new Window. with more details including, importantly, a roster and any (sparse) rules or suggestions. I do suggest that Steampunk Bloggers utilise the many blog prompts and challenges here on Writing.Com as a source of inspiration.

Donations are welcome and will be used to promote the blog only, and perhaps pay the authors. If I get enough donations I will set up a fund, otherwise just donate to the "Welcome to the Steampunk Authors' Guild" Open in new Window..

*Gear* THE ROSTER *Gear*
As the Blimp Pilot of this Incorrigible Dirrigible herein known as Blimpy McBlimpy, I will from time to time post pertinent news about all things Steampunk and all things Steampunk Authors Guild. If you have a Steampunk item, event or hankering let me know and I will endeavour to accomodate you as all good Blimp Pilot's should.

Now, about manning levels.

First cab off the rank is yours truly, to get the sails set as they might say. Then Kate - Writing & Reading Author IconMail Icon will be taking the wheel. And then there will be ... others. This section of the page will be a permanent record of those partaking on this wondrous flight.
