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. That’s great seeing as there are as many approaches as there are writers, maybe more. Hope you’ll dive in. The water’s great!

MY 2021 YEAR IN REVIEW

I’m pleased to announce that I had a couple of stories and several articles published in 2021: The Next Frontier: an alternate-history novelette about the 1960s space race in the July/August issue of Analog (link is to current issue, not previous one) The Holy Wars of Mathematics: A Secret History

SECOND PLACE!

I am astounded to learn that my novelette “Apollo in Retrograde” placed second in the Analog magazine readers’ awards in its category for 2023. Such an honor!
