Event description
THE WORLD IS A CHARACTER: WORLDBUILDING
How to take your setting and transform it into a living, breathing character in its own right.
DATE: 11:00AM - 27th September 2025
VENUE: The University of Queensland, St. Lucia.
SUMMARY: Discover how to write worldbuilding in this tutorial-style workshop. In this 1 hour session, you will learn how to create a compelling setting for your story. One which lives, breathes and changes as readily as your characters do.
This session is tailored to incorporate Queer and Neurodivergent perspectives on works of both popular and historical fiction. These include a number of genres (such as science fiction, fantasy, crime, etc.), as well as mediums such as novels, film, television, video games, and comics.
SKILL LEVEL: No prior knowledge of either worldbuilding or character development is required to understand and enjoy this session. If you are a first-time writer, a long-time writer, or somewhere in between, you are welcome!
This Creative Writing workshop is taught by a LGBTQIASB+ and Queer-affirming service provider with Neurodivergent assistance from a volunteer. It is intended for Queer and Neurodivergent writers.
