281: The Art of the Space Odyssey — Interview with Kristyn Merbeth

Hey there word nerds! Today, I have the pleasure of interviewing Kristyn Merbeth.

Kristyn is an author who’s obsessed with SFF, food, video games, and her dog. She lives in Tucson, Arizona, and her book Fortuna launches a new space opera trilogy that will hook you from the first crash landing.

• How a NASA discovery and a TV show inspired the world and story of Fortuna
• Techniques for building multiple worlds
• Creating complex family and cultural dynamics
• Using dual perspectives to create balance and expand world-building
• How to grapple with real-world issues in a speculative story
