Thanks for comming by, Victoria! Etsy.com has *amazing* steampunk tiaras including ones made out of clock hands! I’ll check out Abney Park. Haven’t heard them yet, but I’m a big Emilie Autumn fan.

Thanks for stopping by Lynne! maybe there’s some steampunk medical romance in your future? “The air pirate’s secret doctor” perhaps? Victorian medicine can be quite amusing and when you throw steampunk into the mix. Who knows, you could start a whole new genre…

But wait, I didn’t realize this was a contest for a TIARA.
I need a new tiara, because I’m receiving the RWA Librarian of the Year award this month at the National Conference in DC and I should have a tiara, shouldn’t I?

I’m so happy to discover this blog, because I’ve become a fan of Steampunk and just started plotting a YA and now I know how to describe it.

I’m loving the clothing references too — because the fun of writing in the Victorian era is all the great clothing.

the mind boggles over the breakdown of terms. I particularly loved Scientific Romance (as if!) and Voyages Extraordinaire!!!!

Thanks for the information. I’m becoming more and more intrigued by steampunk.

I am loving this blog. Who’d have known I’m writing a steampulp alternate history?

I’m a great fan of steampunk fashion of any kind, and this link is a great resource for those of us itching to stimulate the economy…steampunk style!

Steampunk tiaras. Wow, those sound amazing. Yep, I’m going to have to try my hand at writing steampunk one day. Such a cool concept. Look up Abney Park, they are one of the most amazing steampunk bands I’ve ever heard.
