Dystopia as Protest: Write the Future that Fights Back
Discover how dystopian fiction questions the present and disrupts the status quo.
Join author Josh Silver (HappyHead, Traumaland) to explore how writers use imagined worlds to examine power, control and the stories societies tell themselves. You’ll examine how real‑world issues become the foundations of dystopian fiction and learn how to create your own speculative worlds rooted in contemporary concerns.
