Great fiction isn’t only make-believe. Incorporating facts (history, science, medicine, archaeology, etc.) can enliven and deepen a story, contribute to rich world-building, and establish trust between reader and author. Whether you’re writing a futuristic fantasy, a historical romance, or another genre, you’ll learn about sources for research that will inspire you.

We’ll also review approaches to help you figure out how to seamlessly blend fact and fiction in complementary ways.
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.

Amy's class lays out succinct techniques to use for research while passing along a few examples. I found the examples extremely helpful so that I began to broaden the things I considered for my book. She also provided feedback on my work to get me to think deeper and advice about just the right amount of material to add to make it authentic without being to heavy.
