Locus Magazine Goes Steampunk For September

For those of you unfamiliar with it, Locus is a book magazine covering the sci-fi and fantasy (SFF) field. It’s popular with writers, genre lovers, and book sellers. It can be purchased at book stores such as Mysterious Galaxy as well as fine magazine purveyors.

My Taller Half (who’s a SFF/Horror writer) is a big fan of Locus and last night he brought home the latest issue. And it is ALL on steampunk. (for those of you unfamiliar with this SFF genre check out my Steampunk Reading List, which includes a fine definition if I do say so myself)

Steampunk is really big right now so when Locus put out a call for article submissions for the September 2010 issue… Heh heh heh. And, being Locus, they got some serious heavy weights in the Steampunk and sci-fi prose scene; from writers like Cherie Priest and Michael Moorcock to editors like Ann Vandermeer.
