Tīhema Baker |WORD Festival 2024

Tīhema Baker, a celebrated New Zealand writer, is asking the all-important question; What does a Māori spaceship look like?

Well not really, but that question is a great example of the first steps in the process of worldbuilding.

In his workshop as part of the WORD Festival, Tīhema will be sharing advice, tips, and tricks for effective world-building in novels.

He dialled into the Burnt Breakfast Show to give us a teaser into what his workshop will entail, and shares some of his own story.
