Could we lose the "etc."? Yes, I know fantasy can be found in more genres than those originally listed. However, I seem to recall a long ago high school teacher letting us know, in no uncertain terms, that she would regard it as lazy come grading time. The suggestion was that we should always take the time to determine exactly what we meant. Maybe she didn't like Yul Brynner or something. -Derek Hodges 15:03, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

It should also be pointed out that fantasy is not only a literary or story telling art. [1] -Derek Hodges 17:05, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
