Writing Dystopian Fiction with Amy Plum (ages 12–18)

Sat July 6 @ 14 h 00 - 16 h 00

Create your own world, and get started on a piece of original dystopian fiction with help from bestselling author Amy Plum!

Discover dystopian fiction, and science fiction, and explore what elements define this genre. During this workshop, participants will learn essential tips for researching, world-building, and plotting their own works of dystopian fiction.

About Amy Plum: Amy Plum is the author of Die for Me, an international bestselling Young Adult series set in Paris. Her books have been translated into thirteen languages. Her second series is a duology After the End and Until the Beginning, which she describes as “a faux-post-apocalyptic, road trip, adventure, romance, thriller with a bit of magic.” Her third series is the Dreamfall duology: Dreamfall and Neverwake. Amy grew up in Birmingham, Alabama before venturing further afield to Chicago, Paris, London and New York. An art historian by training, she can be found on most days either daydreaming or writing (or both) in a Parisian café. To find out more about Amy, and writing classes in Paris, visit her website.
