How do authors create immersive fictional worlds? What do they have to consider when writing an alternate version of our world or a new world altogether? Sit down with lauded YA authors Tracy Deonn and Adam Silvera for a conversation all about worldbuilding inspired by the intricate worlds they crafted in their current series. Speculate about alternate realities and the use of fantasy to explore real-world concepts of grief, power, love, and self-reflection in this session for readers and writers alike.
