Your complete digital toolkit for designing the kingdoms, cultures, magic systems, and histories that bring your fantasy novel to life. With step-by-step prompts, creative exercises, helpful reading and watching lists,  and ready-to-use templates, you’ll stop getting stuck and finally write the story you’ve been imagining.

Are you dreaming of writing a fantasy novel…

…but struggling with where to start?

​

Maybe you have scattered notes on characters, a half-built magic system, or just a vague sense of your world — but no idea how to pull it all together.

 

Or maybe you’ve tried writing, but your story feels flat, generic or hard to sustain.

​

Here’s the truth: Great fantasy is built on strong worldbuilding, characters and themes.


Readers don’t just want stories. They want worlds they can disappear into — with rules, histories, and conflicts that feel alive. All while still being relatable.

 

But creating all that on your own can feel overwhelming.

What if you had a guide?

Imagine if you could…

​

  • Identify the right kind of fantasy story for your idea.
     

  • Create characters with powers, flaws, and arcs that are fun to write and pull readers in.
     

  • Design settings and cultures that feel relatable while being totally out of this world

​

  • Explore classic themes and plots, such as quests, mysteries, and the struggle between good and evil.
     

  • Finish with a story overview and opening scene, ready to develop into a bigger piece of writing.
     

That’s exactly what this workbook helps you do.
