Your assignment, if you care to accept it, is to head for the blog of Melanie Karsak: Steam U! There, my character Cho Ting-Lam (the Moon-Flame Woman in SHANGHAI STEAM) provides tips for unpublished characters. If you’re a writer, be sure your characters visit the Steam U page, as well. Besides, Melanie has done a beautiful job of presenting my Steampunk Beyond England writing tutorial.
