Description

What’s stopping you from writing fiction? Perhaps it’s how to build a world that enhances your story. Today’s guest is bringing everything we need to know about worldbuilding. Welcome to Your Best Writing Life, an extension of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference held in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mts of NC.

What’s the most important element in worldbuilding? 4. What is the double use for worldbuilding?
