by  

  Time for “Speculative Story Saturday” here at Marcher Lord Press! Here is the latest installment. *** Two rats the size of a small dog slowly rotate above the campfire on a makeshift spit. They smell like dog too, only more smoky. They pop and sizzle, their skin turning a crisp red. Up above, the sky is black as ebony and filled with thousands of tiny stars.

God, the Author of our Lives

by  

Hi, my name is Morgan L. Busse and I am one of the new authors here at Marcher Lord Press. I will be blogging about God, faith, and the speculative here on the new website. This first post I wrote back on January 1st, 2011. Much has happened to me since that day almost two years ago. But one thing has not changed: God is the Author of my life. Here is my post. I have been writing for a couple years now (make that seven this up coming spring). During those years I have wrestled with characters, plots, journeys, …
