    I was mostly thinking about the different games, comics and books that take place in some kind of steampunk-ish universe. Is there any out there that you like and/or dislike?

    also do you know about Fred G Perry's Steam Wars

    P.s. while we are discusing steampunk I just want to say that I fully agree with Bill Willingham
    From http://www.newsarama.com/19161-dynamite-goes-steam-pulp-in-bill-willingham-s-legenderry.html

    No, I hadn't heard of Steam Wars! Or at least, that particular art series. I've seen other steampunk-ed versions of SW characters floating around the Interwebs, like these:

    And yes, I think what Mr. Willingham says makes a lot of sense.

    Back when I was reading DC Comics, I vaguely knew about The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, though never got around to reading the series; that's not exactly an overt steampunk comic, but the influence is there somewhat. I guess I just like the antiquated romance of the genre.

    I'm going to stop the questions for ThreadSketch here (Thread, feel free to answer any unanswered questions, if you want). As I said, this was going to be a skip week since I was on a plane for 7 hours yesterday then spent 1.5 hours getting through imigration and customs to get back into the US. ;)

    We'll resume next Sunday.

    Yikes, Mav! Hope you're able to rest. [face_tired]I-) This was fun. [face_dancing]

    I'll grab the last one...

    I liked Thai food while I was still in NYC (ugggh Thai iced tea *drool*), although I didn't eat anything nearly as spicy as it can possibly get. I'm a wuss. :p Plain jalapeno can make me sweat, LOL. I also love Indian curries, but just medium-spicy too.

    Now Mom found videos of Singapore food today and I just died of the YUM. [face_hypnotized]=P~

    I don't think we've been formally introduced yet. Pleased to meet you. :)

    Since it looks like you're a mom too, what advice do you have to offer on maintaining good life-fanfic balance? :D

    Where's that fic you owe me!?! [face_laugh] Just kidding. Where and when did we meet? If you recall I fell down a rabbithole in 2007 and since then the last decade as been a bit fuzzy. So that is a serious question.

    I'm leaving on a field trip tomorrow, so I'll dump all my questions to ginchy here at once. Sorry for that, I promise I won't do it too often :p

    1. If you could go back in time and change something in your life, would you do it?

    2. Is there someone in particular who influenced you and helped you become the person you are?

    3. If you were to be stranded on a jungle planet in the GFFA, what are the three things you'd want to have with you?

    GINCHY!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Favorite adult-rated fic?

    2. Your "Everest" fic idea - meaning the fic idea you've wanted to write the most but just feel daunted by it?

    3. If you could "50 Shades" one Star Wars plotline or character or fic of yours, which would it be and why? How would you change it into an original story?

    ginchy, here's another one on advice. As a stalwart of this forum and of fanfiction in general, what advice would you give writers plagued by self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy?
