SQ Mag came to me for a steampunk piece, as their cover had a steampunk theme, but there were no acceptable submitted steampunk stories. I was pleased to find that they accepted the story nine days later, and now I'm being published in the ezine.
The story is inspired from looking at Vincent van Gogh's 'Starry-Night', which also inspired Don McLean's famous song (but in an entirely different way).
