Making the Rounds

Gentle Readers,

My piece over at the Lost Genre Guild Blog, Roots in Frozen Generation, has been quite a hit so far. If the intersection of abortion and racism and/or how I handled those two issues in the short story referenced in the piece’s title interests you, go check it out.

Love in Christ,

Announcing: The Carnival of Christian Advice

Bloggers, now, you have another way to participate in this site. Simply ask your question, or offer your own advice, at your blog, and submit your piece to our bi-weekly carnival. Giving myself plenty of time to get this started, the first is scheduled to come out Mar 05, 2007. The deadlines for the carnival is first of every month and the friday closest to the fifteenth of the month. The carnivals will come out the first and third monday.

Submission Guidelines:

Submit posts asking questions of various topics, can be relational, practical, cultural, or spiritual, q/a style posts, and posts on the kind of topics you’d find in an advice column, such as Ask Andrea.

All answering posts must reflect a conservative Christian, biblical world view (read: compatible with orthodox/fundamentalist theology). Posts asking a question don’t necessarily have to come from a Christian perspective, but should be sincere and open to a biblical worldview, not hostile.

You may submit up to two posts per category.

Upgrading, again

I’m upgrading my blog software again, so if anything weird happens, that’s why. Thank you for your patience.

Update:

Everything appears to have gone smoothly.

Site Maintence

We will be down this afternoon while I install a security upgrade to word press. Hopefully, this won’t go on more than twenty-four hours, and this post will still be here when we’re back up. Pray for me….

In the meanwhile, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is touring Pagan’s Nightmare by Ray Blackston. I haven’t yet gotten the opportunity to read it, so I can’t give a proper review or recommendation, but I must admit it does sound intriguing. Hopefully, I’ll get a copy here and be able to chime in.

Update: It looks like everything went smoothly, praise the Lord. We should be good to go, but if anything acts weird, please let me know.

Gentle Readers,

I just want to take this moment to say have a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!

Love in Christ,

Andrea Graham

Housekeeping

Gentle Readers,

Greetings in the name of the Lord! I’ve added some links on the side bar to a couple professional organizations, first the Lost Genre Guild, who is sponsoring, or endorsing if you will, a “biblical speculative fiction” (Kudos to Frank Creed for coining that term) anthology, Light at the Edge of Darkness, which I have recently been notified has accepted one of my stories, two of my husband Adam’s, and a forth we worked on together.

Pay no attention to the young lady behind the curtain squealing like a high school girl who just got crowned homecoming queen.

Ahem, to supplement a side-topic we are beginning to cover here, book reviews, I’ve also joined the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance and will doing reviews for them in addition to any submitted to me directly.

Readers that don’t happen to be publishers or authors can ask me to weigh in on books they’re interested in as well, though my current budget limits me to review copies, those I’ve already read, or are available at the library.

And if you got here by asking google a question, don’t be surprised if one of these days I answer the question, as I keep tabs on the search terms used to find me. Or you can just email me.

Gentle readers,

I’m helping my mother recover from surgery, so please forgive my tardiness. Basil interviewed me last weekend. Check it out if you’d like to get know me a little better.
Also, I have an article up at Adam’s Blog that you may find of interest, The Whipping Boy, which discusses how we relate to Christ. I pray it may encourage the brethren to draw in deeper with the Lord.

Love in Christ,

Andrea
