Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction that typically features steam-powered machinery in the 19th century Victorian era. Fictional machines of technology were found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne. Steampunk may also, though not necessarily, incorporate additional elements from the genres of fantasy, horror, historical fiction, alternate history, or other branches of speculative fiction, making it often a hybrid genre. The term steampunk’s first known appearance was in 1987, though it now retroactively refers to many works of fiction created
even as far back as the 1950s or 1960s.

The Ad is AMAZING!!!! breath taking!
which font are you using in the headline?
Hi,
Yes, I agree, it is amazing. You have a great eye for design and concept. I did not do it, it was done by a graphic designer in New Zealand. I didn’t handle, so I don’t have the contact information.
All I had to do was proof/edit/approve. Sorry!
You might find something in steampunk fonts.
Thanks Marian. Happy to see you and your comment.
I missed this one. I like steampunk, not my normal genre but then I like to read all genre to keep the mind sharp.
This looks like a lot of fun! Steampunk intrigues me. The optimism, the creativity, the brio. I’ll decide as the date nears.
Thanks Rhonda. It would be wonderful if you could come the the reception. We hung part of the show yesterday. Fantastic . . .
This looks awesome, Gail. Are teens welcome? I could tell my library group about it. Not sure about the interest, but it looks right up their alley. When is the deadline to RSVP?
Paula, the RSVP deadline is April 21. It would be so much fun to see you there on the 25th.
