I had a great time at last year’s Steampunk Day and I’m delighted to be returning this year! Although my books aren’t overtly steampunk (though the End of Magic trilogy gets more steampunky in books 2 and 3: airships, steam power, industry etc) I find that the steampunk community is polite, cheerful, immaculately-dressed and wonderfully open to trying new fiction.
There’s plenty to do on the day — lots of stalls, good food and music — and you get to hop on a steam train and blast through the English countryside! Treat yourself…
