I spent this last weekend trekking fabulously through the Victoria Steampunk Expo then down to Port Angeles and thence to Seattle and back to Vancouver and then home. In three days. I think. It was a great deal of fun. Working inside most of the day, I don’t tend to appreciate what a gorgeous corner of the continent I live on.
Met Christine Hart at the Steampunk Expo, though didn’t realize we were both in the Victoria Writer’s Society until Monday when I came back and she’d found me on DeviantArt. It’s a wonderfully small community out here.

I still feel very clueless about Steampunk but I think it's definitely something I would like to know more about. Awesome that they have Expos for it. 😀
It was great to meet you too Eileen! And again on DA. It's nice to hear you had fun at the Expo 🙂
Keri: I really recommend anything by Cherie Priest, or girlgeniusonline.com; they both are really entertaining and exemplify a lot of what the genre is about.
Christine: I just wish I'd found out about it sooner, so I could have made a costume. It was amazing anyway.
