HELLO! And welcome back to The Town Herald!

Thank you all for returning once again to our lovely lil' corner of ET, and I hope you have a blast with this issue as much as we did... Though, it does seem a bit skimpy this issue, it still a good read, and a ton of fun to work on. This issue was all about SteamPunk - but as we discovered while working these last two months, SteamPunk is not such a widely known topic or subculture. It is considered to be a sister culture to Cyber Punk, but has not earned as much publicity or support as the Cyber Punk community has. "SteamPunk" was only recognised as a culture in it's own right in the very late 80s, mostly early 90s, so it is a relatively young movement. So young, in fact, that we had not as much as we thought to work with. Though it is a movement that is gaining steam (no pun intended ;P) and gaining it fast - still, the majority of people don't realize that it's a movement all on it's own. Most people still confuse it as a part of other cultures, like retro-goth, or Cyber Punk , or even Rockabilly. We've learned a lot this issue about this fun and fascinating theme, and we hope that you can find out a little more about it too through us! So take a look around, read what we've got to say, and maybe be inspired to do some digging of your own, and as always -- ENJOY! :D


This issue We'd also like to introduce you to some new team members - though the majority of them aren't present in this issue, you can look forward on seeing their works in our next issues! Please meet, and welcome our Heralder Apprentices!:
[Satomi154], [Tynuka-Rhytishy], [Imperator], [Mortified Penguin], [Captain Rachel Black] & [Acceber]
Welcome aboard guys! And thank all of you for being here with us each and every issue, I hope you enjoy Issue 19 - SteamPunk, and remember to join in and participate in our upcoming Issue 20 - Beginnings & Endings scheduled for release on February 26th! You can contribute by participating in the Art Corner, the Poetry Corner or submitting to Herald Guest Submissions or by applying to Herald Hopefuls. Let us, and all of Elftown, see all the amazing things your capable of!

Thanks a Million, from all the Heralders!
