World Building - Mind Your Myths and Backstory

Rhode Island Convention Center 552

Saturday November 6, 2021 - 11:00 am to 11:45 am


There’s much to consider when constructing a mythical, magical, or futuristic world, and one important factor is the foundation myth or backstory. What does the writer need to know? What does the reader need to know? When do they need to know it? How does the backstory impact the characters and the current events on their world? Join us for a discussion on how to effectively craft a backstory and weave it into your tale. Panel hosted by the Association of RI Authors.
