Names: speculative fiction
Speculative Fiction Building Blocks
Remakes are only one aspect of this interest in early speculative fiction. More than one TV channel airs the “oldies.”

Giving Thanks, Despite . . .
Are there stories in the speculative genres that show thanksgiving as a desired end?

Voting And The Right To Vote
Because the United States is a representative democracy, it seems a little surprising that so few (any?) stories by American authors appropriate this form of government for their story world.
·

The Price Of Otherness
Speculative fiction is based on otherness—the difference between the world of reality and the world of a story.

Speculative Fiction And Contemporary Culture
Should writers change and speak into the culture through our writing, through our stories?

Halloween, Evil, And Speculative Fiction
The point is this: evil in the real world is not so easy to pin down—not without God’s clear standards.

Labor Day
There’s no doubt, the development of labor unions and their consolidation at the end of the 19th century, changed the face of America.

Don’t Forget Books!

Veterans Day: Mayhem And Its Meaning, A Reprise
While stories in the general market are not intentionally reflecting this spiritual reality, they nonetheless reveal the truth that the world is not as it should be, that there are forces of evil, seemingly insurmountable at times, against which forces of good must strive. Mayhem in speculative fiction also shows that the struggle isn’t just external. Mankind struggles against that part of ourselves that seems bewitched or entrapped or bound to a chair.

Thanksgiving Day And Speculative Fiction
In many respects, we’re witnessing in the US the change in the Thanksgiving Day celebration from a major holiday to a minor one. The presence of Thanksgiving or harvest day celebrations seem more apt to be important to a culture if the people are in tune with the growth cycle. As our urban society has become divorced from the way food gets to our table, we seem less thankful and more inclined to take for granted the food we eat.

Writers Of Amish Fiction May Not Have It So Wrong
Can speculative fiction find a place for these women? Can they be our protagonists? Do we see them as worth the spotlight? Or do our female protagonists all have to do as the men do?

The Bible And Speculative Fiction
So often Christian speculative fiction authors fear the accusation of “preachy” that they don’t want characters doing what actual Christians do

Christians And Writing Speculative Fiction
I happen to think that the world desperately needs to hear what Christians have to say. The world needs hope and healing from sin, but the truth is there is only false hope in “looking for the power within,” or the “man is good, you just need to show him empathy” approach to life.

The Myth That Will Not Die
Good speculative novels, written from a Christian perspective, by Christians, or about Christians, are out there. The myth that Christian fiction is like a soiled diaper, that it is only for elderly ladies, is simply a myth.

Memorial Day: Remembering The Soldiers Who Died—A Reprise
It doesn’t seem to me that speculative stories are short on wars, and therefore people serving the rest of their culture or nation or species by marching into danger and possible death.

And Speaking Of Realm Makers
As far as I’m concerned, awards like these are win-win-win. Authors receive exposure for their work, the conference receives more publicity, but best of all, readers benefit from the filtering of judges or readers who have picked the best books from those that were submitted. How perfect!
