Description

World building isn’t just about the fun, nerdy stuff (though I’m always here for that). It can also be strategic—the part where your dragons, space stations, or magic moose help you actually reach your readers.

🎙️In this Author Culture episode, I’m digging into five key world building areas where your passions and world building excitement can help you connect with readers who love those same things.

This isn’t about selling out or dumbing things down. It’s about aligning the cool stuff in your head with the people who’ll love it most.

If you want to build awesome worlds and make sure the right readers find them?This one’s for you.
