Edie here. Today I'm really excited to share a post with you from the Director of the Blue Ridge
Mountains Christian Writers Conference, Alton Ganksy. Many of you know him for
his novels and his writing classes. Today I want to introduce you to the
non-fiction hat he wears with such style and
authority.

So Wrong Yet So Right
Arthur C. Clarke died on March 19, 2008. News of his death prompted me to
pull out my old, well-worn mass paperback edition of his 1973 Rendezvous
with Rama. I hadn’t read the sci-fi novel in decades, maybe longer, still
the story and images he painted remain with me. In a recent interview I fielded
the question, “What is your favorite book?” It surprised me a little when
Clarke’s Rama sprang to mind. I reread the book and loved it as much as
I did the first time around.
