Steampunk Canada Helping Share Steampunk Artists and Authors With the World!


Call out to Steampunk Canada Artists and Authors

Show Details
Hello Dear Members,
If you have not yet seen the current front page, I am on a search for all of our fabulous Canadian artists and authors.  Whatever your medium is - paint, photography, film or the written word, I want to share your talent with the world.  I need very little, just a word or two about yourself and your artwork, what inspires you, a link to your site if you have one, and a photo or two.  Everything should be sent to me at questions@steampunkcanada.ca by December 22nd.
As well, we have been very busy and there are a number of reviews and even a beta key giveaway for City of Steam.  Come on by and have a look!

Cheers,

Lee Ann Farruga
