Group for those who wish to learn, practice, write in, promote, and review Steampunk.
Hello, good day, and welcome adventurers, inventors, scientists, tinkers, and explorers to The Steampunk Authors' Guild (or "StAG")

OUR MISSION: 

To educate the unfamiliar with this fascinating new field of fiction. 

To promote the Steampunk genre throughout WdC utilizing contests and review forums. 

To inspire authors to write within the genre and produce quality short stories, novels, and poems. 

You may ask, what is Steampunk?  Grab your goggles, and let me direct you to EvilEgg Author Icon's extensive introduction to all things Steampunk:

That will give you a schematic of the genre's basic plumbing. Here, then, is an ever-expanding list of works to explore, compiled by Capt. J B Dryden III, RAI Author IconMail Icon:

The group meeting place, if you will, is now a closed forum, it is open to our group members and really there are no real requirements or expectations of the members so if you are interested in Steampunk at all, you will be most welcome.
