A Writer's Workshop: TOPIC:World Building: It’s Not Just Your Fantasy 

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2018

1:30 PM TO 3:00 PM

When worlds align writers are able to take their readers on a journey. Inconsistent worldscapes result in unbelievable stories. If the reader doesn’t believe the world you’ve created, they will eject at lift-off. If you break a rule you’ve created in your world, your reader will hit the self destruct button. Proper world-building is not relegated to fantasy. All fiction and non-fiction needs to create world-building rules and follow them.

Kim Briggs, the author of the STARR FALL series, will demonstrate authentic world building techniques to the attendees. Attendees will learn the nuances, the pitfalls, and the character creation tips that will blow their readers out of this world.


More about Kim Briggs:

An unhealthy obsession with conspiracy theories combined with a love of travel and happily ever afters led Kim to write her YA novel, Starr Fall, where a secret organization decides 17 year old Starr Bishop is not only the model student, but the ideal assassin. While in hiding, Starr meets dark, moody, and dead sexy Christian Evergood. Cue the swoon worthy music. But it’s not all happily ever afters for Kim. Her NA novel, And Then He, explores the dark and scary corners of the human psyche. Following a night of innocent flirting with a handsome stranger, Tiffani finds herself in the midst of a nightmare she can’t escape. And Then He is available now through Amazon and other major book retailers. Starr Fall will debut November  2016 with Inkspell Publishing.
