Learning From Bad Books, Part 5

Why do the new versions of the Left Behind books have covers looking like science fiction? On Sunday while my wife was shopping, I wandered next door to a Christian bookstore (yes, it’s the kind of Christian bookstore that’s open […] · E. Stephen Burnett

Learning From Bad Books, Part 4

“The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I have no need of you,’” the Apostle Paul famously remarked in his comparison of diverse-gifted Christians with body parts. But two weeks ago I asked: what happens if the eye says to […] · E. Stephen Burnett

New Adult Christian Speculative Fiction Releasing Friday

In light of yesterday’s discussion I thought I’d take this opportunity to remind everyone that we’ve got three new Adult Christian Speculative Fiction titles releasing this Friday from Marcher Lord Press!  And I’m pretty sure none of them include fornicating […] · Stuart Stockton

Birth Of A Christian Speculative Novel

Speculative: based on conjecture rather than knowledge. Faith: trust in a person or thing. Those two words sum up my writing journey—where I’ve been and, by God’s mercy, where I’m headed. My goal with this post is to glorify the […] · Matt Koceich

Learning From Bad Books, Part 3

The writer had sat down at his computer, frowning slightly, and set about typing, when suddenly a thought occurred to him. “Have you ever noticed,” he said, out loud, “that in someone’s early writing, there’s a tendency to expound facts […] · E. Stephen Burnett

To Published & Beyond – One Author’s Journey Pt. 5

So there I was. Eight years after Starfire had first been conceived, with a publisher who finally wanted my novel.  The six months from October to April was a crazy time. My wife was pregnant with our first child, due […] · Stuart Stockton

Guest Blogger – Matt Koceich

I remember the first time I looked at the back cover of House and being turned off by three words I found there. “I killed God” written on a soup can to be precise, did not (and still doesn’t) sit […] · Matt Koceich

Learning From Bad Books, Part 2

When I grow up, get old, and very likely die, and go to Heaven, I anticipate at least three things: Finally getting to see the face of Jesus. Reunions with Biblical saints, other faith heroes, perhaps household pets, etc. Novels […] · E. Stephen Burnett

Learning From Bad Books, Part 1

“The whole world is turning into scrambled eggs.” Larry marched to the window. […] Jimmy pointed out the window. “Do you notice something strange? Several cars have driven off the road and been abandoned there on Pacific Coast Highway and […] · E. Stephen Burnett

Guest Post By Author Eric Reinhold

Eric Reinhold is the author of the middle grade supernatural fantasy series, The Annals of Aeliana (Creation House). This summer the first book, Ryann Watters and the King’s Sword, is being made into a movie by TYG Studios. I asked […] · Rebecca LuElla Miller

Reality and The Supernatural In Peretti’s ‘The Visitation’

Fiction and poetry provide authors a unique way to glorify Christ that more overtly intellectual genres, like theology, simply can’t. These genres that aim directly for the heart and soul—rather than aiming at the heart through the mind—do not argue […] · E. Stephen Burnett

Beware The ‘Moon People’!

In Which the Author Attempts to Demonstrate the Unique Pitfalls Often Associated with Lack of Accountability, Shunning Editors and the Unfortunate Enablement Offered by Vanity Publishing. Reviewers give it four-and-a-half stars on Amazon.com. Despite its humble origins and short length, […] · E. Stephen Burnett

On The Back Cover …

This is my copy of That Hideous Strength, the third of the “Space Trilogy” by C.S. Lewis. If for some reason the photo here isn’t showing or you can’t make out the words, here is this edition’s back-cover copy: The […] · E. Stephen Burnett

‘He Is Her Hunter — and Her Slave’!

Aside from my hand there, this photo is not arranged. My wife and I spotted this last week at a Presbyterian church rummage sale. And we had to wonder if the same Presbyterian had read and enjoyed both books. Ah, […] · E. Stephen Burnett

Another Marcher Lord: Kathy Tyers

The author of multiple Star Wars novels and the sci-fi trilogy Firebird, Kathy Tyers, is coming to Christian fantasy-and-sci-fi indie publisher Marcher Lord Press. This comes from (among other sources) TitleTrakk.com. From yesterday: As [Marcher Lord Press’s] publisher and acquisitions […] · E. Stephen Burnett
