This will also give authors things to keep in mind as they critique the stories they may have already written and add to their world for any series they may be currently working on.Attendees will walk away knowing where to focus their worldbuilding efforts, what details aid the reader in visualizing their world, how much detail can be included before it becomes overwhelming, and more.
