The Fantasy Nut post got such a good response, I decided a little more light-hearted rambling might be in order.

First an announcement. Fellow Spec Faith contributor E. Stephen Burnett just recently got married! I was fortunate enough to see some wedding pictures on Facebook. I also learned that Stephen is the moderator of the NarniaWeb Forum. I didn’t even know there WAS a NarniaWeb Forum before I read Stephen’s Facebook info.

Which reminds me … if you’re on Facebook, consider friending Stephen or me. Just mention that you’re a Spec Faith visitor, and I know I’ll be excited to add you to my network. When Stephen gets down from cloud nine, I suspect he’ll be delighted to add you to his network as well.

Another for-fun writer tidbit coming up, but first for those who love reading fantasy, you might be interested in the short story I posted on my personal blog, A Christian Worldview of Fiction. The story is called “The Stones Cry Out.” (I wrote it before I knew there was a popular novel with a similar title!) I posted it on three successive days, so if you’re interested in reading the story, click on Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.

I promise, I will get back to the more serious discussion of fantasy I started weeks ago. I haven’t forgotten. I just needed a break from heavy-duty analysis. All those Shack posts I mentioned last week took a lot out of me.

So this week is fun stuff.

And here’s the writer fun I mentioned. Thanks to Rachel Marks, I discovered a quiz that will answer the question, Which fantasy writer are you? How fun is that! So go! Take the quiz, then post the results on your own blog. Be sure to come back here and leave a link in the comments so we can visit your site and find out which writer you are. For those of you who aren’t blogging, tell us your results in a comment. Now I’m off to take the quiz myself!
