\"oyan-steampunk-pinterest\"<\/a>By Sarah\u00a0No\u00e9, Guest Contributor<\/strong><\/p>\n

In April, we were honored to feature Sarah\u2019s post, When Words Stop Coming<\/a>, in which Sarah\u00a0talked about her new writing project, a light steampunk novel. We asked Sarah to tell us more\u00a0about what it\u2019s like to write in the steampunk genre.<\/em><\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t tell you when I initially heard the word \u201csteampunk,\u201d but I know my journey into this\u00a0science-fiction subgenre<\/strong> started with Jane Austen.<\/p>\n

I first read Pride and Prejudice<\/em> in middle\u00a0school with my mom for literature class (former homeschooler here!). I distinctly remember that\u00a0the long sentence structure took some getting used to. However, I instantly fell in love with the\u00a0characters<\/strong>, the twists and turns<\/strong> of Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy\u2019s romance, and the witty\u00a0prose<\/strong> that flowed effortlessly from Austen\u2019s pen.<\/p>\n

Being a voracious reader, I was quick to plow\u00a0into all the other Austen novels. The part that hooked me on the Regency Era most of all\u2026was\u00a0the BBC costume dramas. Suddenly the bustling city streets, the crowded ballrooms, and the\u00a0sprawling English countryside were there, before my eyes.<\/strong> I drank it all in; I memorized the\u00a0recurring names of actors in the costume drama circuit. I learned to imitate the various British\u00a0dialects.<\/p>\n

By this time, Charles Dickens had entered stage left<\/strong>. The Victorian Era became my new favorite\u00a0part of history. The size of many Dickens novels was intimidating. Nonetheless, I could manage\u00a0Oliver Twist<\/em>, A Tale of Two Cities<\/em>, and A Christmas Carol<\/em>. I was in high school now and\u00a0somewhere in my writing adventures, the word \u201csteampunk\u201d surfaced. The look of airships,\u00a0Victorian fashion, goggles, grease, and complicated clockwork designs<\/strong> was fascinating!\u00a0Anything could exist in such a world if it was steam-powered<\/strong>. Besides, what\u2019s not to love about\u00a0the mash-up \u201cVictorian Era meets sci-fi\u201d?<\/p>\n

It might sound like I had all the pieces in place, all the gears turning, for a happy steampunk\u00a0writing career. However, the sub-genre still held some surprises<\/strong> for me\u2014surprises I want to\u00a0impart to you. I hope by sharing them that steampunk will appear more accessible<\/strong> if you, too,\u00a0have an interest in writing it.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t begin an earnest search into the genre until my final years of college. To my dismay, I\u00a0realized that steampunk was largely a visual, not literary genre<\/strong>. While clockwork animals and\u00a0elaborate dresses were cool to look at, I couldn\u2019t seem to find any decent steampunk books.\u00a0If\u00a0they weren’t dull, they were full of clich\u00e9s or dirty content. I was also dismayed to find that\u00a0steampunk, unlike other genres, does not truly have a “standard” or “pillar”\u00a0work<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

These\u00a0discoveries took me aback.<\/p>\n

Since I found nothing\u00a0in my search to inspire me, I wrote a couple of scenes dabbling in my own\u00a0notion of the genre: teatime, highbrow names, an airship, a Cockney mechanic\u2026it was fun.\u00a0I saved the file to my computer and moved on to other projects.<\/p>\n

When I came around to the idea a few years later, I found myself drawn to the historical thread<\/strong>\u00a0of steampunk. Everyone focused on the technology (which was undoubtedly impressive) but it\u00a0was the class structure, the clashes in hierarchy, and the larger-than- life characters<\/strong> in the\u00a0Victorian era that I wanted to write about, and that had first drawn me to Austen and Dickens.\u00a0Steampunk, with one foot in history, had the potential for great stories about these themes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It quickly became clear to me that I had to do the one thing I wasn\u2019t wild about: research<\/strong>. My\u00a0younger, more na\u00efve self thought that with steampunk, I could just make things up. It wasn\u2019t\u00a0really<\/em> historical fiction. Who cared about titles or whether Lord Summertree would ever be in the\u00a0same place as Nan the factory girl? However, the Victorian Era was a time defined by its classes\u00a0and the unspoken rules that held them apart.<\/strong> These were necessary to keep the society together as\u00a0a whole. Even if my world were fictional, it would be strongly influenced by that era. I wanted to\u00a0make sure I got my basic facts straight.<\/p>\n

This realization felt like a hindrance, but it pushed me to invest more thought and creativity<\/strong> into\u00a0my project\u2014and it can push you too.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, I didn\u2019t have to go far to find information. The Internet provided some useful\u00a0websites and the library furnished several fascinating non-fiction books. There was so much to\u00a0learn<\/strong> about the types of carriages, the way titles were assigned, and so many more things than I\u00a0needed for my story. I also continued to read fiction set in that time period<\/strong>. (I\u2019m happily creeping\u00a0through Our Mutual Friend<\/em> by Dickens right now\u2014which I highly recommend.)<\/p>\n

Armed with what I learned and with examples in classic literature, I then just set about trying to\u00a0craft a compelling story, using the lessons I\u2019d picked up from The One Year Adventure Novel<\/em>,\u00a0other writers, and my own personal study.<\/p>\n

If you are considering steampunk or other hybrid genres, don\u2019t be afraid to lean into the technical\u00a0or historical elements<\/strong>. Sure, it\u2019s fun to imagine new places and new things that no one\u2019s ever\u00a0heard of. For a unique twist in my own novel, I added a fantasy element where dragons and\u00a0unicorns roamed the forest in bygone days\u2026and might still. Nevertheless, don\u2019t underestimate\u00a0the richness that real-life historical details can bring to your story world.<\/strong> On a humorous note, I\u00a0discovered that Victorians had some fantastic slang back in the day. To be \u201cblue as megrim\u201d was\u00a0to be sad or depressed. Or my personal favorite: if someone is \u201csmelling of April and May,\u201d they\u00a0are madly in love! In terms of the plot, you never know what conflicts and subplots can spring\u00a0from lesser-known facts<\/strong>, like the difference in wage between a steward and a footman.<\/p>\n

I can tell you firsthand that leaping from a casual fascination to confidence in your craft is\u00a0daunting<\/strong>. The Internet is overflowing with visual inspiration for unique genres, but literary\u00a0signposts are often lacking for the way of a writer. Nonetheless, I like to think that my journey\u00a0illustrates how far passion and a willingness to explore can take you. If you love steampunk,\u00a0there are so many directions in which the genre could grow.<\/strong> The skies are wide open. So strap on\u00a0your goggles and roll up your sleeves. With a little elbow grease of research, your story can sail\u00a0far.<\/p>\n

Have you ever wanted to\u00a0write steampunk? If you tried it, how did it go?<\/em><\/p>\n
