This class was first presented at the 2024 Maryland Writers Association's Brain to Bookshelf conference.
When writers hear “world-building,” they often think of high fantasy or sci-fi novels, à la Game of Thrones or Star Trek. But every writer engages with world-building basics, whether they’re drafting their memoir, writing a contemporary romance, or putting together a poetry chapbook.
In this discussion, Moriah Richard will outline the parts of world-building that all writers need to be aware of, share some of the biggest dos and don’ts, and lead an exercise that will help you think more deeply about the world-building in your latest work.
