Wingfeather Saga Short Film
This first in the Wingfeather Saga films is very well done.

What About Christian Speculative Movies?
Speculative fiction by Christians is not uncommon. Readers can find stories about dragons and wizards, about characters trying to survive in a dystopian world, about a clone who escapes the laboratory, about the people in a new fairy world, about space captains, about space aliens, about vampires, about . . . well, just about anything speculative you can imagine. But how will these stories make it to the big screen?

Why We Don’t Need Christian Fantasy
We have good reasons for making fantastical stories by Christians, for Christians! Yet here are four reasons why we don’t.

Fiction Friday – On The Edge Of The Dark Sea Of Darkness
Just outside the town of Glipwood, perched near the edge of the cliffs above the Dark Sea, sat a little cottage where lived the Igiby family.

Monsters And Their Meaning
Some writers take monsters and re-envision them. Thus, vampires become love interests instead of deadly beings from which to flee (the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyers). Dragons are good instead of evil, protected from dragon hunters by an act of God (Dragons In Our Midst series by Bryan Davis). Elves are noble and wise rather than mischievous or selfish (Tolkien’s The Lord Of The Rings).

Reviewing Speculative Faith Reviews
Writing more blog entries lamenting the lack of good Christian sci-fi and fantasy novels doesn’t correct this problem. Instead, read Christian SF novels and write reviews. Not just for The Cause, but to help others worship God.

Mythopoeia Or … It’s Opposite
Mythopoeia, according to Wikipedia, is “a narrative genre … where a fictional mythology is created … The authors in this genre integrate traditional mythological themes and archetypes into fiction.” When I first heard the term, I was confounded. Which is it, I wondered, the creation of a myth or the integration of traditional myth into a new story?

What’s In Yours?
Summer is over, and many readers used a part of their vacation time to kick back and enjoy a good book. But every day authors announce new releases, and the fall line up seems full of a wealth of new books. Then there are the classics — the books everyone else talks about that we’ve never picked up ourselves, though we’ve been meaning to. For writers, there are also books of friends and colleagues. So, what’s in your to-be-read pile?

Hutchmoot: There and Back Again
Author Bruce Hennigan attended the new Hutchmoot last year, and interviews author A.S. Peterson about this year’s plans. “If you concentrate on telling the best story you can, you won’t be able to keep Christ out of it. He’ll show up.”
