I'd love to find a lyrical #YA Christian fantasy that doesn't shy away from struggle and loss, but ultimately conveys strong themes of redemption, restoration, and hope. #MSWL #CF

STEAMPUNK.

Note: I don’t want stories centered on inventors. It’s okay to have them, but I don’t want the MCs journey to be focused on inventing.

Give me the grit, aesthetic, atmosphere, and world building though!!
