The Art of World-Building

Calling fantasy writers, readers, and world-builders ✨

Join us for an intimate, discussion-based meetup focused on the art of world building at Stumptown Coffee Roasters in NYC.

This is a conversation-forward, casual chat for people who love imagining worlds: maps, magic systems, cultures, histories, politics, religions, creatures, and everything in between. Whether you’re actively writing a fantasy novel, world-building for fun, or just love thinking deeply about fictional universes, you’re very welcome.

We’ll explore topics like:

• What makes a fantasy world feel alive
• Magic systems, lore, and internal logic
• Culture, power, history, and geography
• Favorite worlds from books, games, and film—and why they work

There’s no pressure to share writing unless you want to. Think of this as a cozy, thoughtful space to exchange ideas, get inspired, and connect with other imaginative minds over excellent coffee.

✨ Open to writers and non-writers alike
✨ Casual, welcoming, and discussion-based

Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and let’s talk worlds 🌒🗺️
