... Paranormal IS fantasy, isn't it, Myra? I always just assumed that paranormal was a sub-genre of fantasy. I don't know what else it could be. Of course, I...

P.I. That does make sense. Thanks for the thoughtful interpretation. As I said, not a biggie to me, I leave it up to the publisher to make the decision. Just...
Hi, I'm a looooooong time member, but havn't posted in ages. Fantasy can take place on an alt earth, but doesn't have to. I'll direct your attention to...
This is an interesting discussion. I never really thought about horror being anything but pretty much a separate entity. Well maybe under paranormal... But I...
Hi, horror pretty much is. I know, the Fantasy, Horror, and Science Fiction get lumped together on the shelves. However, there are authors that bring them...

... Rick, I'd say that's a good example of why science fiction and fantasy can be so difficult - even impossible - to separate. McCaffrey's stories about Pern...
Hi, I feel the same as you about Pern. I wasn't asking for my benefit, but to proove the point you expanded upon. While Pern, nor it's author are my thing, I...
