Top Ten Most Original Speculative Fiction Story Worlds, Part 1
On a list of most original story worlds, which would make the top ten? But what makes original story worlds so interesting in the first place?

Fiction Friday: Christy Award Finalists
Some of these names you many recognize. A number have written articles for Spec Faith and / or have had their books featured as excerpts.

Beatitudes and Woes: A Groundbreaking Anthology
The Beatitudes and Woes anthology uses speculative stories to illustrate well-known statements Jesus made. Perhaps this method will prove to be groundbreaking–used by other anthologies in the future.

Fiction Friday – Escape To Vindor By Emily Golus
For as long as she can remember, Megan Bradshaw has imagined herself as the heroine of Vindor, her own secret world populated with mermaids, centaurs, samurai and more. When school pressures and an upcoming move make life unbearable, Megan wishes she could escape to Vindor for real. And then she does.

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!

So Many Good Writers, So Many Good Books
I thought perhaps today we could add to those resources by sharing information about books and/or authors we like that may be flying under the radar, and others need to know what we know.

Moral Relativism Doesn’t Wear A Cape
Who can deny the appeal of superheroes? The story of humanity is filled with them, real and mythical. Hercules, Genghis Khan, Joan of Arc, Paul Bunyan, Malala…the list goes on. Every culture in the world has them in some form or another, and they all have the same effect on those who hear their stories. They inspire, they encourage, they motivate, they empower. Sometimes they conquer, sometimes they save. Some build mighty empires, some hear the cries of the weak and helpless.

Fantasy and Sci-fi Book Recommendations
For book lovers, this is a joyous month. What makes a better present or stocking-stuffer than a book? Or a trilogy? Or a seven-volume series?

The Military, Veterans, And Speculative Fiction
In thinking about the military, I had to wonder about the place of the military in speculative stories. Perhaps most famous are the Storm Troopers of Star Wars, but other stories, particularly dystopian fantasy such as Hunger Games, includes a strong military—as part of the side of evil.

Fiction Friday: Numb By John Otte
Crusader perched like a gargoyle on a second floor ledge across from the safe house’s entrance. He ignored the rain pouring down his face even though it blurred his vision. The weather didn’t matter. Neither did his posture. God created him to execute the Ministrix’s justice.
