  • Résumé

  • Today on Fantasy Writing for Barbarians, we’re tackling one of the most crucial questions for fantasy writers: How much research is necessary to write a convincing novel?

    Inspired by a discussion prompt about writing a Flintlock-era fantasy, I dig into why research isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. Whether you’re recreating the intricate details of 18th-century gunpowder weaponry or exploring the psychology of your characters, we’ll explore how research can elevate your story from flat to fantastic.

    Email your own advice prompt to fantasywritingforbarbarians@gmail.com or join our Discord and let us know what's on your mind. You can find the discussion prompt we referenced on the show right here.

    Fantasy Writing for Barbarians‘ host is Jon Negroni, author of The Pixar Theory, Killerjoy, and more. Our producers are Natalia Emmons and Bridget Serdock. You can find all our episodes and various podcast app options here.
