Resources: World Building for Novelists by Beth Barany

Broad Universe is an international, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting, encouraging, honoring, and celebrating women and historically excluded and marginalized genders writing, editing and publishing in science fiction, fantasy, horror, and other speculative genre

In August 2014, I was interviewed by progressive science fiction author, Maxwell Pearl, on my views on world building in fantasy for the monthly Broad Universe podcasts.

We discussed the philosophy of world-building for fantasy, examples of world building, settings for stories, and tips and tools for fantasy world-builders everywhere.

Enjoy the interview here.

BTW, I’m a proud member of Broad Universe, an international non-profit organization dedicated to promoting, encouraging, honoring, and celebrating women writers and editors in science fiction, fantasy, horror and other speculative genres. I write young adult fantasy and paranormal romance.
