Zap! Welcome to the world of science fiction! Inspired by Ursula K. Le Guin, Octavia Butler, and H. G. Wells, we’ll be talking about what sci-fi is, what it can be used to do, and how to write it ourselves!

We’ll be navigating different elements you can include in your science fiction work, from things that beep to futuristic politics, visors and lightsabers to cheat codes for creating your own futuristic language.

We’ll also talk about how just one word can place your reader firmly in the science fiction world you’ve imagined.

You won’t want to miss it! See you there, Martians!
