It was the only panel had your average, maybe slightly better I went to all weekend. It was titled Why than average panel with Ann, Michael, Liz Steampunk Now?, and I’m fairly certain and Deborah, but Nisi was amazing. She that it’ll be long-remembered by those who really set things off by taking the entire managed to see it (or were following my realm of Steampunk to task for a number Twitter stream). of things. She noted that while the fandom There’ve been hundreds of Steampunk of Steampunk is multi-racial, multi- panels. I was on my first in 2003 at the Seattle generational and very liberal, it also seems Westercon with Alexander Irvine and Gordon that most of the characters and even the Van Gelder. This one dwarfed that one. There writers are Caucasian. This isn’t 100% true, was Liz Gorinsky, who I did a panel with at Nisi even noted Steven Barnes’ Lion’s Blood SteamCon and is an editor at Tor. There was and Zulu Heart, but she does have a point. Michael Swanwick, whose book Jack Faust She mentioned that Cyberpunk was just as is a wonderful book that every Steam Fan bad, if not worse, though I remember reading should get a look at. Ann Vander Meer was Cyberpunk stories in the 1990s and far too on the panel too. She co-edited the greatest often the main character was a video game- Steampunk anthology ever plus she just won obsessed Asian kid who may as well have been a Norwegian Lutheran and it would not have changed the story. Nisi also mentioned that there’s an unpublished work called The Afflunence Engine (or maybe it was Affluent Engine) by Nora K. Gemmeson that will be a difference maker once it hits the street. Here’s the thing: Nisi wasn’t a convert. She doesn’t hold up Steampunk. It made for an interesting panel. It wasn’t all sunshine and lollipops, mostly because of Nisi, and that’s a good thing. Having the issues surrounding Steampunk rose up to our eyes is a good thing. Perhaps the most interesting thing Nisi brought up was a West African god named Ogun (or Ogoun). He is the god of Iron and Forges and Smiths. He’s also a spirit of war and politics, all things that Steampunk has dealt with in various incarnation. There’s a large story waiting to be written with Ogun as the focus. I’m working on an article about Ogun for this fine rag, though it’ll be a couple of issues down the road. There’s so much going on, and there’s so much coming up. The big thing that’ll be happening in March is big SF cons (notably MarCon and BayCon) the Steampunk Exhibition in Emeryville, but I’ve noticed that there’s not a huge cross- California, right at the base of the Bay over between Steamsters and SF folk, myself, Bridge, which will mark the third Steampunk of course, not included.

Only time Steampunk to have that sort of event, and in will tell… some ways every Steampunk convention has that distinction, but as they grow in number, next year will likely have 4 Steampunk conventions. each of them will be lessend as they have to compete for attendees. Still, they’ll be awesome as I met so many folks that you’ll be seeing in these pages at the Steampunk cons I went to so it’s a very good thing. The calendar for next year is starting to take shape and it looks crowded. One of the most interesting things is that we’ve got Steampunk Exhibition (shorthand: SteamX) in March, the Asylum in the UK in October, as well as SteamCon in Seattle in October. That’s three returning (or kinda returning) Steampunk cons in a year, plus, what I just learned will be the World Steampunk Expo in Deerborn, Michigan.

  • Progress Report #1
    Welcome to the first progress report for the 2021 World Fantasy Convention! We are pressing on, in times of Covid, and continuing to plan a wonderful in person convention in Montréal, Canada. We have a stunning guest list and a superlative team for both planning and the creation of the gathering not to be missed. We will be at the Hôtel Bonaventure, an iconic landmark in the city. The hotel is located in the heart of downtown and just outside the Old Port of Montréal. It is near major roads, right across the street from Gare Centrale, the Montréal train station, and is directly connected to two Metro stations, making it easily accessible for both motorists and public transport users. We will be able to enjoy a lavish 2.5 acres of gardens with streams inhabited by ducks and fish as well as a year-round outdoor heated pool. Our committee is busy excitedly planning a convention that will surpass your every expectation. Our theme will be YA fantasy. The field of young adult fantasy has grown from being popular to becoming a dominant category of 21st century literature, bringing millions of new readers to hundreds of new authors. We are working on a diverse program that will explore this genre that celebrates fantasy fiction in all of its forms: epic, dark, paranormal, urban, and other varieties. We invite members to share what they enjoy, what they have learned, what they have written themselves, and what they hope to see coming in the field of young adult fantasy fiction. We look forward to seeing you all in Montréal! Diane Lacey Chair Diversity Statement The committee for the 2021 World Fantasy Convention is unconditionally devoted to promoting diversity within our convention.

TEACHING SPECULATIVE FICTION IN COLLEGE: A PEDAGOGY FOR MAKING ENGLISH STUDIES RELEVANT by JAMES HAMMOND SHIMKUS Under the Direction of Dr. Elizabeth Burmester ABSTRACT Speculative fiction (science fiction, fantasy, and horror) has steadily gained popularity both in culture and as a subject for study in college. While many helpful resources on teaching a particular genre or teaching particular texts within a genre exist, college teachers who have not previously taught science fiction, fantasy, or horror will benefit from a broader pedagogical overview of speculative fiction, and that is what this resource provides. Teachers who have previously taught speculative fiction may also benefit from the selection of alternative texts presented here. This resource includes an argument for the consideration of more speculative fiction in college English classes, whether in composition, literature, or creative writing, as well as overviews of the main theoretical discussions and definitions of each genre.
