Genre : Fantasy

Picture


​If you want to get a better feel for the fantasy genre then I highly recommend you read these books for yourself.

As you read, take notes about the setting, characters, and plot. And think about this question: What makes these books so uniquely "fantasy"?

​

Meet your Fantasy Writing Coaches !

Fantasy is a huuuuge genre. You can kind of imagine fantasy as an umbrella. Underneath that umbrella are a variety of fantasy sub-categories (or "kinds of fantasy"). To keep things organized, I've grouped fantasy into the following categories:

High Fantasy
Portal Fantasy
Contemporary Fantasy
Fantasy Mythology 


This is by no means an exhaustive list of fantasy sub categories, but it's a good start. 
 
To talk more about writing fantasy stories, I've asked some of my author friends to share their expertise and experience. Below you will find links to their videos where they each give their own mini writer's workshop.
​To see each workshop, click on the button next to their picture. 

So pull up a chair, get your notebooks ready, and get ready to write!
