Chesterton by Jeff Chapman http://www.gatesofheavenseries.com/blog/2010/04/27/fairy-tales-and-g-k-chesterton/comment-page-1/#comment-26 Jeff Chapman Thu, 29 Apr 2010 18:57:10 +0000 http://www.gatesofheavenseries.com/blog/?p=18#comment-26 Thanks for the uplifting post. It's an inspiration to all of us struggling writers who, for whatever reason, cannot live fully without writing. Chesterton is one of those writers a know a bit about but have never read. I think I'll start with Orthodoxy, but I'll have a hard time not jumping to the fantasy chapter. Thanks for the uplifting post.

I'll be adding Chesterton's book to my wish list. I plan to look for some of yours too. Unfortunately, many Christians don't see the Bible as story and miss out on the message. The "real" message contained in the story is a lot more powerful than the literal message. I recently attended a Christian writing conference and told a person manning one of the vendor booths that I write fairy tales and fantasy. She looked at me like I had the plague. Looking forward to more of your blog entries. Wonderful essay on the relationship of the Bible to fairy tales. I’ll be adding Chesterton’s book to my wish list. I plan to look for some of yours too.

I can say this since she is my editor and I've seen her work and enjoyed her insight. Just getting things together so she can edit my second book!
