As writers, we like to think we know everything about our characters and the world they inhabit. But do we? I certainly don’t always recall those details—and definitely not when I need them most. Cue the dive down an internet rabbit hole for the next hour instead of continuing to write my draft. There is a time for writing, and there is a time for worldbuilding—and they are not the same!
Having a sense of where to begin to build your world in all its glory, so that the next time those townsfolk are suspicious of strangers, you know what happened the last time they trusted someone who walked into town from the world beyond. Just imagine, when you sit down to write, already knowing the answers to questions like:
· What is that song on the radio at the bar?
· How long does it take to drive from Town A to Town B?
· Who established that law about bathtubs in the street?
· Where is the best place to get a burger in this town?
· When did that family take over the monarchy?
Tackling everything from creation myths and cultural practices to building relationships and measuring time, this worldbuilding course has the questions and activities you need to help you craft a believable world for your story.

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.
