Wings of Steam

We’ve dusted off the wheel, inflated our balloon, fired up the boiler, and now we’re back off the ground with a fresh and steady supply of steampunk news!

Only one small hitch… While we were on our summer hiatus the annual renewal of our beloved aethernet site has come up as well. Owing his entire life’s fortune to his educational institution, the present and primary author of this blog does not have enough assets to pay this fee. This is where you come in, kind gentlefolk!

That’s right, by offering up a bit of old fashioned philanthropy, you can help ensure this blog will continue to provide you with steampunk news for years to come!

Any dollar amount donated is appreciated. If you wish to donate, please do so by following the link below.

We will now return you to your regular steampunk news.

We welcome you to this, the inaugural article of the Wings of Steam Anachronistic Society’s Steampunk news and fashion blog. The Wings of Steam are a group of cosplayer airship pirates, founded on Sunday, September 14th, 2008 at Nan Desu Kan, an anime convention in Denver. We are just a fledgling group, currently consisting of 14 members, but all the proper ingredients are there to turn the group into something big rather quickly. If you are a steamer in Colorado, membership in the group is currently open. Anyone may gladly mingle with the members in our forum.

As for this blog, we will be using it to report on anything and everything fashion or cosplay related that may be of interest to steampunks and neo-Victorians. Occasionally we might slip in a bit about our own group as well. Stay tuned for juicy morsels from all across the aethernet!
