WORKSHOP: World building is critical for writing fantasy. But it’s also important for every genre. Whether your setting is around the corner, across the globe, two thousand years ago, or in an imaginary world, choosing the right elements pulls your reader in, adds tension and conflict, and engages their imaginations. This workshop will look at eight components of world building and discuss the power and potential of each. There will be time to brain storm ideas for your current project.
SPEAKER: Ruth Morris writes epic fantasy under the pen name Verity Moore. Summoned, first volume in her Through Ancient Portals
series, recently released. She has written non-fiction material for
ministries, is a retired teacher, and remains active as a taxi driver
for the Amish community, which allows plenty of thinking time to plot
her next novel. CRITIQUE GROUPS: And don't forget to bring your latest work-in-progress (ten copies up to 1500 words).
