#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
Who needs a magic system? You do if you’re writing a fantasy adventure. Join author, Amelia Mellor whose novels The Grandest Bookshop in the World and The Bookseller’s Apprentice are a great introduction to help you develop a magic system. The system helps you decide what the rules of your world are: who can do magic, how does magic work, what its limits are, what are the impacts of those choices, whether pigs can fly—and why not? The sky's the limit! Come create your own or team up with others along the way.
