Visions: Fantasy, Science, and Speculative Fiction
VISIONS our latest Community Service Anthology. For this collection, we called for stories and poems in the genres of Fantasy, Science Fiction, and/or Speculative Fiction.
Writers.com compares the three genres this way: "Science Fiction is a genre in which fictional science and technology plays an important role in society. By exploring how these futuristic technologies shape human behavior, those technologies become metaphors for our own social predicaments. "Fantasy, by contrast, describes stories that involve some form of magic. These could be magical worlds, magical powers, or magical creatures. The world being developed must be clearly fantastical, even if it’s set somewhere on Earth; these fantasy elements also drive the story forward, and can also be metaphors for real human conflict. Speculative Fiction encompasses these genres, but it also encompasses any genre where unnatural, futuristic, or supernatural elements exist within and are essential to the story." Pages Promotions acknowledges, and will accept, Dystopian Fiction as fitting into these genres. |
