October was Steampunk Month at Tor.com! The (primarily science-fiction) publisher Tor Books maintains Tor.com as an online magazine featuring articles, essays, short fiction, and other entertaining material, and I was honored to be asked to create an illustration for a story entitled “The Strange Case of Mr. Salad Monday”, by GD Falksen. You can read the story, and check out my illustration, right on over here!
It’s been a few years since I last mentioned this stuff, so I’m gonna share it again for the benefit of new readers! Back when my wife and I were first engaged, we were both working in movie advertising. So naturally, after setting a date, the first thing we did was make a poster (above, click for bigger).
Then, we made a trailer:
(if you don’t have Flash, here are lo-res and hi-res QuickTime versions)
And being action-movie fans, we decided we needed an action-movie cake:
It was designed by me and created by Mike’s Amazing Cakes in Redmond, WA. Click the image for a closer look!
If you have further sinister curiosity about our wedding itself you can always look at some of our vaguely interesting pictures as well. But the main thing is the cake — I’ve seen it linked around the internet anonymously before, and I want to make sure it’s got an attribution attached to it.
By the way each tier was a different flavor
Last note about Tweet Me Harder for a while, don’t worry. We now have an iTunes feed for the podcast, so that’s a handy way to listen without having to go to the site (though every episode is also archived there for streaming). We just wrapped up our fourth show, and I think it keeps getting better. Subscribe on iTunes to get all the latest, automagically!
