Chandler Renteria

Some stuff about Me:

-I'm 20 living on my own, working, and going to University.

-Obviously I love to write and like most writers I enjoy reading as well.

-I've mostly read fantasy my whole life, and even took a few classes on J.R.R 
Tolkien. 

-My writing is darker, it could be labeled Dark (Speculative) Fantasy.

     What is Dark (Speculative) Fantasy?

      "So, to me, a work is dark fantasy if it deals with any elements of fantasy and/or the paranormal in a way that studies the dark and frightening side of our nature, psychology and the weird, sublime and uncanny. If it doesn’t shy away from the gore and horror of its own darkness, yet doesn’t primarily aim to spook. If it has heroes that are not knights in shining armour, but people that sometimes have to do unsavoury things. If it has villains that aren’t necessarily all bad as well as villains that really are all bad. If it’s dark and twisted and delves into the depths of speculative fiction, without primarily aiming to scare or gross out its readers, then it’s dark fantasy.
It is definitely a very hard thing to pin down with a single definition, but it is far and away the best definition for many things that don’t quite fit within the generally accepted genres of fantasy or horror. And I certainly don’t claim to be the final authority. I’m wide open to any other comments people might have on the subject." - Alan Baxter
