Writing for a world that already exists requires many of the same tools as writing for your own – compelling characters, a well-paced plot, a well-drawn setting – but adds a few new challenges and opportunities to the mix. In this workshop, we’ll take a look at what it means to write for an existing intellectual property (IP), from how to get inspired by the work of those who came before you to figuring out how much sand you can kick up in someone else’s sandbox to striking the balance between serving the fans and fanservice.
