Storypunks Salon and Reading Room

Where we discuss steampunk, cyberpunk, dieselpunk, and all the rest!

Plus, we also have a book club and discuss punk-related reads. In 2019 we’re starting with foundational classics in each genre. Learn more about the punk genres you love or dive into a new one!

SCHEDULE (tentative):

*Update: Due to me moving to a more off-grid lifestyle, I’ve had to tame my aspirations for this first year of our book club! I have a lot to figure out logistically! With that in mind, here’s the updated schedule based on when we’ll be discussing each book in a Facebook Live session every other Monday night at 8 p.m. Central:

April 22, 2019 – Ecopunk/Cyberpunk/Biopunk – The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi
May 6, 2019 – Steampunk – Morlock Night by K.W. Jeter
May 20, 2019 – Cyberpunk – Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (now Blade Runner) by Philip K. Dick
June 3, 2019 – Dieselpunk – Empire State by Adam Christopher
July XX, 2019 – Cyberpunk/Steampunk – Neuromancer by William Gibson / Steampunk – The Difference Engine by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling

Depending on how much people like these types of sessions, we’ll book more in the coming season.

Plus . . . the Off-season: Less Talk, More Reading!

Update: The Storypunks Podcast runs April to September which means we’re off-season October to March. But we may chat about longer series when we return, so we’ll see how the possibility of off-season reading evolves!

Join our biweekly-ish reading and discussion schedule and before you know it, you’ll be that many punk books smarter! Listen in. Chime in. Pick and choose. It’s totally up to you.
