As I immerse myself into Steampunk on the web, I find lots of pointers to the Guardian article Going back to the future with steampunk. It seems The Difference Engine is considered the quintessential reading and bottom floor of Steampunk. Vandermeer and Moorcock are cited for their works. I love Moorock’s work, so there’s probably some sticking power, after all everything this guy touches turns to gold. Vandermeer has made a last minute call for submissions to Steampunk Reloaded. One wonders if an amatuer can produce an acceptance letter in four days time.
