Steampunk Enchantment and Glamourie

This year I’ve taken the Goblin Circus to quite a few steampunk events and I’ve been pondering glamourie again. When we dress up we’re casting a glamour on ourselves. We don’t have to use this to present an image though, instead we can use it to create a space of possibility.

Short article; doesn't really focus on steampunk per se, just uses it as one example.

Wow, I kinda wish the article had been a little longer. Anyway, thanks for sharing it; it was somewhat helpful, even in such a tiny format. (I suspect more of it would've been even more helpful.)

Although I'm not much of a steampunk fan, I think the same principle lies behind my "I wanna dress like a character who just stepped out of an elfpunk or urban fantasy novel" thing that I've been doing (or least trying) lately.

I know, right?!

(Or is that really supposed to be spelled "Inorite" by now?)
