A lot of the movies that I put under the umbrella of Steampunk get that title because of more or less aesthetic reasons. The City of Ember, for instance, is technically a post-Apocalyptic future, but the people rely on a … Continue reading Cowboys and Aliens Movie Review

April 27, 2019December 15, 2019 Phoebe Darqueling

The first part of my new book, No Rest for the Wicked, takes place in the Old West. With the excitement of launch day, it got me hankering for some other “weird west” and freaky tales of the frontier.  This … Continue reading Gallowwalkers Movie Review

A Great Resource for Adding Old West Slang to your Steampunk Creations

April 16, 2019December 15, 2019 Phoebe Darqueling

The American West had tons of amazing slang and terminology. I was (and still am) searching for the meaning of the phrase “copper the ace” that Mark Twain used when describing Sacramento, “the city of saloons.” I haven’t found and … Continue reading A Great Resource for Adding Old West Slang to your Steampunk Creations

April 13, 2019December 15, 2019 Phoebe Darqueling

A Million Ways to Die in the West Taking something that isn’t inherently funny and taking it to a ridiculous extreme can be a way to both grapple with the issue and get a chuckle from your audience. The recent spoof on … Continue reading A Million Ways to Die in the West Movie Review
