CALLING ALL WORLD BUILDERS

The Google+ Hangouts with Juliette Wade
When SF and fantasy writers talk about the craft, you hear a wide range of remarks about world building. Some grin and say things like, “That’s the most fun part of the job; I could spend all my time on it.” Others struggle and quietly despair.

So how does one go about crafting a more believable world inhabited by far-future humans, aliens, or magical creatures? My writing buddy, Juliette Wade has a website and youtube program dedicated to “Diving Into World Building”. With her advanced degrees in anthropology and linguistics, she’s got a wealth of knowledge. Better still, some terrific guests have been on her program.
