Some Guidelines for Writing Christian Fantasy for Kids
Shownotes
Hi, Janet Wilson here.
The issue with writing fantasy, and how we deal with it as Christians, came up in one of our Writers for a Reason Unite meetings recently.
One of our members had been reading a children’s book, where witchcraft, magic and spells were included in the story. As Christian writers, we’re not going to be including any of these things, of course… but what about fantasy? What about where a character is taken ‘as if by magic’ to another time and place, for example?
Where do we draw the line?
Here are some guidelines – feel free to disagree! But let's at least think about these things.
Like to do my free writing course, Gripping Beginnings?
