Synopsis
Write a Dystopian Novel guides writers of all experience levels through the tropes and themes that exist within the dystopian setting, then provides prompts that will not only engage the writer’s creativity but will also beat writer’s block and offer a fresh perspective on outdated tropes.
First writers will find an interesting scenario for their characters, then they’re given brainstorming and writing instructions, and may also find some interesting twists with extra asks about adding additional elements (like a joke or a lie), giving things an extra dystopian spin, or working in a callback. For anyone looking to expand their dystopian writing, this book is a must-have to help complete their story ideas, deepen their worldbuilding, and craft unforgettable, thought-provoking narratives that will captivate readers.
