Oh my goodness no, that is not at all what I meant. I wholeheartedly believe the same thing, that God is sovereign and that he predestines and preordains history, I completely believe that (I’m Reformed Baptist [and am oddly therefore into church history]).

What I mean by that is that our heroes that we write about show what God intends for his people to be. Like, instead of the heroes of our stories justifying and promoting sin, they are following God’s design and the way that he tells us we ought to live by what he tells us in his word.

Particularly, I have a desire to write about male and female characters who portray God’s design as in the roles God has made us for. That’s what I mean by “God’s original plan” verses the warped views of things that our world has given us.

I write High Fantasy, so it is a lot of Tolkienish in some ways, but I want to very clearly give a Biblical worldview, that’s what I meant pretty much. Because really, if I’m not writing for Christ and I’m writing for myself and my glory, then it’s not worth writing. In my opinion, it’s the stories of today that have normalized and ruined culture. When all the singers, books and movies popularize sin and an unbiblical worldview, doesn’t that have some effect on people and then the culture? I want to see books that are awesome, but have a Biblical worldview, and ultimately point to Christ and glorify God, even if it’s fantasy.

O.K. First I need to just go ahead and mention how much I love your name!!!! Is that a combination of Anne of Green Gables and LOTR??? I am a modern day Anne with the exception that I adore redheads…

Anyway… Fan art… I don’t have my sketchbook with me and I’m out of state right now… Plus with so many REAL artists on here, I’d blush to put it up…
