Hey there word nerds!
Today I have the pleasure of hosting Rowenna Miller on the show!
Rowenna is a midwestern born and raised fantasy author and has a Master's in English Film and Literature because she can't shut up about stories.
She is also a historical reenactor and seamstress, specializing in the late eighteenth century, and writes fantasy shamelessly inspired by her love of history, especially the history of ordinary people.
Her debut novel, Torn, released in March 2018, is the first in her The Unraveled Kingdom series, and the second book, Fray, will be available in June 2019.
So listen in as Rowenna and I chat about this amazing series and constructing an intricate history inspired fantasy world.
In this episode Rowenna and I discuss:
Character centric world building. Different ways to play with magic in fantasy. How to layer aspects of your world naturally into the story. Pitfalls to avoid when crafting your magical system. Intertwining politics, history, and magic when building your fantasy world. Plus, Rowenna’s #1 tip for writers.For more info and show notes: DIYMFA.com/246
