Can action, sci-fi, and fantasy worlds inspire real world outcomes? Heard at a session with Marc Bernardin, Naren Shankar, and Emily Carmichael about building worlds at the ScreenCraft Writers Summit 2021

Example. Star Trek inspired real world inventions.

Build on earlier stories because it’s hard to come up with something unique.

Stephen King said about keeping in touch with the real world: Writers must be readers.

Make sure you have something to say for that world. Must do the deep thinking to make it work.
