Whether you’re describing your own tiny corner of this planet, delving into the past, imagining the future, or building a fantasy world from scratch, you will have to go through a process of educating the reader until the foreign becomes familiar. In this workshop, we will examine and discuss the techniques used by writers to reveal their worlds to a new audience. We will also cover how to learn from and manage the expectations of others, from first readers to reviewers, in order to make our work as accessible, or impenetrable, as desired.
