Literary Lunch

Worldbuilding: How to Create a World for Your Characters

Where to start—physics, origin legends, inherited world, the story first. Each can work. When to stop the building and start the writing. It’s a conversation between story and world. How to keep it all organized. Consider an example and look at resources.
