Fantasy and science fiction are pretty large genres, but they are often a top coat genre that covers another. Many fantasy and SF novels are other-genre stories that take place in the unique settings and worlds of these realms. Understanding what your underlying genre is can help you craft a better story that feels right at home in your worldbuilding.

During this workshop, writers will learn how to identify their underlying genre and the importance of writing your story to match it. They will then learn how fantasy and SF overlays these stories and how to integrate genres together for cohesive storytelling.
Class Format
Savvy Authors' workshops are held on a forum: a bulletin board based system. You will receive a reminder notice one day prior to the start of the workshop that includes instructions on how to access the workshop forum. If you have not received instructions by the day the workshop begins, please check your spam filter.

The forum will be available the morning (EST) of the day the workshop starts and will remain accessible to all participants thereafter. You will also be given simple instructions on how to create a PDF of all your discussions along with our privacy and data retention policy.

Please note that you do NOT need to be online at a specific time to access the lectures. This is NOT a live video based class.
