The Steampunk Boiler Room

http://www.writing.com/main/forums/item_id/1814391-The-Detailed-Writing-Prompt-C...

G.I Jane Austen was driving home from her job at (insert crazy steampunk factory here).
She was just turning into her driveway in her (insert crazy steampunk vehicle here) when she noticed a huge package sitting on the front steps of her (insert crazy steam punk house here). It was wrapped in patterned paper, and it had a large, elaborate bow on top.
As Jane walked closer to the stairs, she saw that there was a note attached to the top of the package. She tore it off, and began to read:
"You have been selected to receive this free gift from the Robot Trading Company! (fun fact! That's a real company's name) That's right...free! Please read the instruction booklet VERY CAREFULLY! Your personal robot is able to do many tasks that you must do now, not just household tasks.
Remember to read ALL the instructions before using your robot.

[ finish the crazy steam punk story ]

I'm working on a FAQ for the publication I'll be producing but in a nutshell don't get to excited - I'm a self-publisher who hails from the zine/comix DIY world. It will be an ebook made for the usual suspects (amazon,etc). I'll probably make a sweet print version for the contributors too.
