Week Three of OUR Favorites, Day Four: Diversity in Fantasy Art-Fantasy, Sci Fi, & Mythologies of Alkebulan+ Ellen Oh's Prophecy/Warrior & Sarwat Chadda's The Savage Fortress/The City of Death giveaway!

Cant believe were more than half way through the week! Before you know it, we'll be revealing the theme of next week's faves!

Today we're actually highlighting a Facebook page, not the actual artists themselves. All of the artwork and imagery displayed and shared on this particular page are of Black women and men(and children too!)in speculative, sci fi, horror and fantasy settings, but it's not limited to those!

Today's Spotlight:

It would be difficult to spotlight one particular piece of artwork, because the administrator of the page doesn't own the art or draw it themselves. It's part research, part submissions from those who like the page. Artists trying to promote their work, and authors pushing their imagery for character work out there.

Blogoversary Celebration Day 5: A Cruise with Katie from "Space Crip" + 15.00 Amazon Giftcard giveaway+Bonus 10.00 Amazon giftcard Giveaway!!!


Diversity blogs seem so hard to come by. Add in diversity blogs that cater to geeks of Sci-fi, Fantasy, Horror, Speculative Fiction and Action, and they're even harder to find. It's very disappointing that of all the blogs we've found highlighting disabled/differently abled characters are so few and far between. That's why this blog is so amazing. Space Crip analyzes and highlights disabled characters in the SFF world. And shouldn't there be more? I mean according to the Census Bureau Reports, nearly 1 in 5 Americans have a disability. And that just in the United States. It's about time we started seeing that represented more in our media. But until then, Space Crip is doing that and more!
