[image error]The intrigue of Steampunk design was born from my recent festivals. The Texas Renaissance Festival and Galveston's Dickens on the Strand introduced me to Steampunk culture and its accoutrements.

Not-Really-Southern Vamp Chick BDay Bash!
Today on Not-Really-Southern Vamp Chick Amanda's blog, Aria writes quite the entertaining guest post about all things Steampunk. She even mentions Avalon Revisited!!
"Well, I have to say, my very first Kindle edition is in fact Avalon Revisited by O.M. Grey. Another Steampunk Paranormal, but entirely different.
