As the "cli-fi" genre term rises, the motif is spreading worldwide: Here's how YOU can help!
NOTES ON THE RISE OF ''Cli-Fi'' -- and how *YOU* can help spread the word via blogs, FB groups, reading clubs, oped essays and book reviews AND writing your own cli-fi novel or screenplay.
1. New (and old) literary and movie genres grow organically, and other people who follow other genres are more than welcome to their own opinions about whether or not they like any given genre term or phrase or pop buzzword. For this blog, "cli-fi" fits the bill. But all points of view are welcome here.
2. Genre discussions and critiques help define all this in various ways. Keep the discussions going!
3. Getting excited about new genres is wonderful: ''Cli-fi'' has arrived JUST IN TIME!
4. Several genres cover climate-change fiction for novels and movies: cli-fi, speculative fiction, and literary fiction. We will be seeing more and more cli-fi novels and movies in future years.
