Greater Love (Bible Amid Worlds Contest Entry)Late Summer, 1949
"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
John 15:13
It had been four months since La'atira had met the boy scouts. They had all been so kind in taking her in and helping her learn their language. Once all the children got over the fact that she was twice the height of an adult human, they all warmed up to her quickly. It took some convincing, but the scoutmaster even allowed her to take some of the older boys for a flight on her back.
Being stranded in this strange world was not nearly as bad as she expected it to be, and she had the scouts to thank.
It was late afternoon when she returned from one of her hunts. The boys could not always keep her fed, so she was more than willing to provide her own food. The Luniae never brought any of them with her when she hunted. Her methods of taking out her prey would easily frighten the bravest of the children, and she did not want them to see

A Good FeelingA Good Feeling
Lady Septime led her Clone troops through the narrow pass, as ordered by Commander Wolfe. Though her youth was forged in Peaceful pursuits under then Master Jedi Dooku, she had grown and matured in the shadow of war. But she rejected Dooku's dark fall, siding with the desperate Republic for which she stood.
The soldiers marched in a slow, casual patrol. Jakku was a quiet planet in a sector not heavily involved in the war, but it was strategic, nonetheless.
Septime sighed from the long patrol. Most of the perimeter was desert wasteland, with scavengers picking at military graveyards stocked with old equipment, abandoned ships and vehicles, all sorts of junk and relics.
Jakku was simply strategic for some reason, and though Septime considered every assignment and position important, the whipping sand of the mild storm approaching made her wish a little that she was still a warrior maiden for Queen Amidala. The sand would always get everywhere.
Realm Makers 2019
Realm Makers is this July in St. Louis. If you register before the 15th, you'll get a cheaper rate.

For those who don't know, Realm Makers is a conference for Christians who write speculative fiction, so writers in this group would fit very well at the conference. (They also have a Facebook group, which I shared a link to in the previous journal entry.)
Also, we passed the 200 member mark a while back, so YAY!
Realm Makers Facebook group
I realized I've talked a lot about the Realm Makers conference, but very little about the very active Facebook group. It's for Christian writers of speculative fiction, so some of you might like to join. Here's the link.

If anyone knows someone who is Christian and likes speculative fiction, feel free to tell me so I can invite them to this group, or if you're able to invite people to this group, go ahead and invite them.
Thanks.

For all the people here who are into writing, there's a writer's conference for Christian speculative fiction. It's coming to St Louis in July, and if you sign up before March 15, it's less expensive. Here's the description from their website:
If you are a Christian author writing speculative fiction, find your people at Realm Makers.
This isn’t your grandmother’s writers conference.
Are you a creative person who loves science fiction and fantasy, but also makes your spiritual growth a high priority? Have you found that you’re a little too weird for the usual church crowd, but don’t exactly fit in with the sci-fi co
