This week we'll be going over the entries in the write a story, win an autographed copy of Cherie Priest's Boneshaker novel contest. There are many awesome entries. I ought to put together a .pdf of all of them that people can download, print out, and read on the subway.

While no winner has yet been chosen, I wanted to point out the FREAKING AWESOME ILLUSTRATION OF STEAMPUNKROSWELL that mcmatz did:



sweet barking cheese. Friend this woman. Seriously. How could this awesome have escaped me for so long? I think there will have to be a special prize for this, it was so unexpectedly awesome.

(and if anybody else wants to do steampunk roswell illustrations, I will indeed put together a .pdf of all the stories for people to download and read on the train, and I'll give out other special prizes which will likely consist of a photographic print of something.)

rock on with your bad selves

That's fabulous! Both the illustration and the story. I love the imagery of "chatelaines of men" hanging from the rail of the airship.
Wow.

Yes, it is awesome.
You realise that all cats need for world domination are opposable thumbs? That's what makes this illustration particularly scary.
Then again, we would probably be safe with Roswell because she's so damn lazy. ;o)

And I'm supposed to sleep tonight with that thought in my head?

Edit: Aaagh! It's already happened...

If Roswell gets the gauntlets, please say that doesn't mean I have to get gauntlets for our dog for her self-defence. Weaponization like this makes Terminator seem quite tame.

Thank you for the gracious comments, guys!
Having not written in a good while, I felt that if anyone was going to read my bit, they deserved a little eye candy.
Mr Kyle, my awesome stays well hidden. I believe it was barely apparent when we met at the AFP concert last month.

That is a really lovely piece of work, writing and illustration both. There's something so unbearably poignant in the juxtaposition of those powerful-looking hands and Roswell's almost wistful countenance.
