Imaginary Friends or Fictional Characters?
I grew up with Sherwood Forest in my backyard—not the supposedly real Sherwood Forest that folks claim is in the UK, but the actual “real” one known only to a few and located in the middle-of-nowhere, Texas. I’m surprised you haven’t heard of it. You see, I was blessed to have a big sis with an enormous imagination and an insatiable appetite for reading. We spent hours in the backyard running through Sherwood Forest at the heels of Robin Hood, escaping on horseback from the evil Duke’s soldiers, sailing with pirates in search of buried treasure, and digging our way …

Why I Write Christian Speculative Fiction
I never set out to write Christian fantasy. In fact, I wasn’t sure what place that kind of book had in this world. Sure, there was Lewis’ Narnia series and Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. But with all the controversy over Harry Potter years ago, I didn’t know what to think. I read Star Wars, Terry Brooks, and such, but Christian fantasy? I don’t think so. It was actually the Harry Potter controversy that made me start thinking about Christian fantasy. Could fantasy and Christianity mix? Could a good book be written where the faith element or the fantasy element …
Interview with Robert Treskillard
Hi and welcome to another speculative author interview at Enclave Publishing. Today we have Robert Treskillard with us. Robert is the author of the series The Merlin Spiral. 1) Everyone seems to have a “how I got published” story. What is yours? Well, not to join the crowd, but I began by being rejected by Steve Laube! I had an appointment with him at the 2008 ACFW conference, and when I subsequently submitted MERLIN’S BLADE to him, he rejected it. But … he did give me one bit of information that greatly encouraged me: He told me that the concept …
