“Every treasure is guarded by dragons. That’s how you can tell it’s valuable.”
― Saul Bellow, Herzog
“Every Friday The Thirteenth I celebrate Knights Templar Day. Here at my Duck Farm Gift Shop, I’ve got THE authentic map that details the location of their hidden treasure, and I’ll sell it to you for ONLY $19.95. (Limit one per customer.)”
― Jarod Kintz, Music is fluid, and my saxophone overflows when my ducks slosh in the sounds I make in elevators.
Now, we actually had a chance to meet (and even host, as Gust of Honor) Mr. K.W. Jeter, the man who coined the term “Steampunk”. He’ll tell you as quick as anyone: He wasn’t the only person doing it, he wasn’t really intending to name a genre, and he isn’t going to tell anyone else what is or ain’t Steampunk. And we feel the same way. Know what that means?
It means that the world is full of undiscovered Treasures of Steampunk!
