Whether you’re an aspiring author, or planning your next Dungeons & Dragons campaign, worldbuilding is often one of the first and most difficult challenges to overcome. But with years of playing table-top RPG’s for a living comes with the advantage of wisdom and insight.

In this episode of the Bright & Ambitious Writing Podcast, Noah Woodyard (professional dungeon master and host of the live-play podcast “The Bastard Children of Everil”) talks through the 5 things every fictional world needs, the pitfalls to avoid, and how you can make your audience (or players) get invested into your world.

Kailey Bright is fantasy YA fiction author and computer scientist, which means she writes code during daylight and writes about fantastical worlds under starlight.

Tired of YA stories where protagonists suddenly get secret, plot-helpful powers, Bright seeks to write powerful and ambitious stories about characters who persevere with and through disadvantages. Her books are meant to positively impact readers who struggle with challenging societal norms and cultivating inner growth.

When she’s not tanning under her computer screen’s glow, Kailey enjoys winning at mediocre bowling and drinking iced coffee at all hours of the day.
