In the world of Mythania, magic is quite prevalent and pervasive. While only a small fraction of a percent of people are able to wield magic (estimated between 0.2% to 0.5%), this still amounts to well over a million persons. Of those, less than 5% are able to display any...
Mythania lies far beyond the world we know, a planet orbiting the golden star Solaron along with her dark sister world, Atracus, locked in an eternal celestial dance. This is a world where juggernaut war machines ravage the landscape; where stupendous air fleets dominate the skies; where mighty wizards battle...
To go along side my article on Fantastical Airships!, please allow me to present Fantasical Airships! This site includes some weird, waky, and wonderful designs, as well as few that might have actually worked. They include one of my favorite designs from the 1920’s, the Bel Geddes, complete with all...
Hello everyone. My name is M.C. Williams, author and creator of Mythania. I am a writer, a programmer, and a gamer; and I am a recovering Microsoft User. Before I begin, let me start off by saying that I am not an anti-Microsoft war-monger. In fact, for my day-job I...

The Wall Streat Journal Online has this excellent 4 minute (almost) news video on the Steampunk sub-culture, highlighting the extraordinary workings of Richard Nagy (aka Datamancer). Give the video a whirl! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg7fVMiwCvY
Here’s a video tour of the Edison Club in LA, to the music of Abney Park. If I lived in LA, or happened to ever visit LA, I would most certainly make it a point to stop by. The Edison Club is probably the only “steampunk” club in America, at...
While I have been writing for approximately 20 years, accumulating thousands of pages of written work, I am quite ashamed to say that I have never been published. And it has not been for the lack of trying. I have failed to have a single book published by any of...
I just found this wonderful, picture-filled article at DarkRoastedBlend.com on assorted airship designs from the early 20th century to the modern day. Some of the airships are recently proposed designs for re-invigorating an interest in airship technology. Others are images of “airships that never were”, and while some could be...
Abney Park is probably one of my favorite bands, and that’s saying a lot since I’ve never been big on music for anything other than background noise. Of course, I’m a bit biased since I’m a sucker for anything “steampunk-ish”. But Abney Park has style, and they are pretty unique...
