If it works for him, then I'm all for it. Whatever keeps him happy and producing the quality entertainment I've grown to love. Not sure if you're reading this, Jim, but if you are, keep up the great work!

Can anyone give me some steampunk recommendations? I have attempted to get into it before but each time that I do I find something horribly written (books, comics, tv) and then start to hate it again. I am hoping that all of you can steer me in the right direction.

Well two series I can recommend:
by Lilith Saintcrow: The Iron Wyrm Affair (The first book in the Bannon & Clare series)
by Pip Ballantine & Tee Morris: Phoenix rising (The first book in the Ministry of peculiar occurences series)
Then of course you also have the webomic Girl Genius.
Even though the book The Difference Engine by William Gibson & Bruce Sterling is one of the first entries of steampunk, I hesitate to mention it. It has an interesting idea but the book feels disjointed.

There's a guy who lives near me with two (so far), I think self published, steam punk novels. His name is Chris Braak, check out his web site (I'll link later) they're pretty good.

I am so hyped for this, y'all have no idea. Well, maybe Priscellie does, but she's a special case.
