Writing Fantasy: Castles to Cauldrons
About the Event
Through this community studio, we’ll explore different subgenres of fantasy and fiction writing techniques. What is the difference between high fantasy and low fantasy? What happens when you shift the perspective of a story from a third person narrator to a first person narrator? How can fantasy be a tool to re-imagine old stories or invent completely new worlds?
In this session we explore low fantasy as a subgenre and discuss existing literature as our model for our own. Discover how changing small fantasy elements in a story can have a big impact.
