Introduce yourself!
Hi. My name is Kent, and I am a struggling writer and artist who works as a "nightstalker" (night stocker, actually) for a major retailer. I have several books in the works right now, although I have never been published. I would like to try my hand at steampunk literature, and welcome any advice, comment, ideas or input from the members here. :-)
What do you hope to find at The Steampunk Writers & Artists Guild?
Like-minded authors and artists who love steampunk and have the passion and willingness to help a guy out or just talk if that is all he needs. :-)
How did you hear about us?
I found you on Google+!

My First Rejection Letter!

I just received my very first rejection letter today from Podcastle.  I am savoring the moment before I try again, then I'm going to print the notice, frame it, and place it on my wall.  :-)

Just spent the better part of the night and early morning hours editing my short story, "To Whom Shall You Inquire?" You can view the updated version here at the link I have provided.

Please let me know what you think. I am desperately seeking constructive criticism. :-)
