Worldbuilding
Your world.
This module gives an overview of worldbuilding, the process of creating a setting for your story. Even if you are writing a literary fiction in the present day, you still need to understand the implications of the exact where and when. If you’re writing science fiction? Then you have a lot more work to do!
