Writing Workshop

Worldbuilding Lessons for Any Genre

Every story takes place in a world, whether it is a quiet neighborhood, a sprawling fantasy realm, or something in between. In this workshop, writers Noah Hoffman, Sarah Wilson Gregory, and J.M. Clark will share strategies for building immersive, believable worlds that support your characters and strengthen your story.

We’ll begin with a writing prompt to get the creative energy moving, then explore how to weave worldbuilding into your narrative without slowing the pace. Learn how to develop setting, culture, history, and atmosphere in ways that enhance tension, theme, and plot across all genres.

Whether you are crafting epic adventures or grounded dramas, this session will give you tools to deepen your story’s world and make it feel real. All experience levels are welcome.
