Writing Faith-based Speculative Fiction with Amy A.C. Williams


Listen Later

What did you think of this episode?

 Christians should be writing Speculative Fiction! Science Fiction and Fantasy writing is a great genre for faith-based writers.
 
Linda Goldfarb here. I’m so glad you’re listening to this encore episode with award-winning author Amy A.C. Willims.  Amy is a coffee-drinking, sushi-eating, story-telling nerd who loves cats, country living, and all things Japanese. She’d rather be barefoot, and if she isn’t, her socks will never match. With books in space opera, superhero adventure, and action-comedy, Amy loves helping authors discover the genre-defying joy of speaking truth in fiction.
 
Our time together is a little longer than usual, but you will be so happy you stuck around as we talk about Writing Faith-based Speculative Fiction

  • What are the genre expectations for speculative fiction?
  • What is “world-building”?
  • Can you write science fiction without aliens?
  • Can you write fantasy without being a linguist?
  • Why should Christians write speculative fiction?
