When you're writing something that isn't exactly urban fantasy, but not exactly anything else, either, it's good to know we still fall under the Speculative Umbrella.Laura Hughes, MittensMorgulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934132671168843593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4665052536053897386.post-87975752228341267672012-08-06T23:11:53.706+07:002012-08-06T23:11:53.706+07:00Well, that puts it into perspective. :-)Well, that puts it into perspective. :-)Steve MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026970188928733645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4665052536053897386.post-68045429295574238042012-08-06T22:34:21.626+07:002012-08-06T22:34:21.626+07:00Can I just say, "Thank you" for includin...Can I just say, "Thank you" for including Science Fantasy as a real genre?

It can sometimes exist on the edge of what is possible, but mainly I've found it to differ from standard fantasy in that it contains some minor fantastical element(s), but the setting is essentially realistic (whether contemporary, historical, or otherwise). How does that differ from Urban Fantasy? Good question.Matthew MacNishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03264738483763244969noreply@blogger.com
