You'll hopefully excuse my absence as of late. The book I have been writing and compiling is, at last, almost complete! My unflinching and often wrenching research has brought through every twist and turn in every avenue of the SteamPunk world.
And so I can say without reseervation that those of you who were not at the Crucible's Fire Arts Fest, which is always fantastic anyway, missed a particularly SteamPunk event.
The irrepressible genii of Kinetic Steam Works were there in force, including Steam Wizard Dick Vennerbeck (pictured).
(I'm the chap in the background warily eyeing the boiler!)
The SteamPunk Treehouse from Burning Man was, for me, the star attraction, making for a surreal, very playa-like experience. Great fun was had by all, and no one lost an eye!
