Fantasy Worldbuilding & Character Development Courses To Make Your Book One Readers Obsess Over

You know how it feels to finish a fantasy/romantasy book so good that you can’t stop thinking about it. 

How it feels to connect with a character so deeply you feel like you know them. 

How a fantasy world can be so rich and inviting, you’d be the first to transport yourself there if only given the chance. 

Writing a book just like that is your dream. 

Maybe you started it but never finished – after all, it’s so hard to find time to fit in writing when you have a day job, friends, and family to keep up with (and burnout to recover from!).

Or maybe you DID finish it (hell yeah!), started querying, andddd….crickets. 

So you edited it. And queried again…

…more crickets. 😞

Feedback from editors or beta readers said that your fantasy world didn’t “feel lived in” enough and characters “didn’t jump off the page.” 

But they didn’t really explain why that was or how to fix it. 

You’re so lost on how to make sure that your fantasy world is fleshed out and feels like a place readers want to escape to WITHOUT making them trudge through info-dumpy paragraphs. 

Your characters feel so alive in your head, but for some reason that doesn’t come across in your writing. 

It’s frustrating.

And disheartening.

And overwhelming. 

But I know you can do this. 

You have an incredible story to tell – after all, those characters have been bopping around in your head for a while for a reason. 

You just don’t know what you don’t know – so how about a helping hand? 

Here at The 1031 Creative, you’ll find courses to guide you through in-depth fantasy worldbuilding and character development plus coaching.

I’ll help you breathe life into your writing and build rich, multi-layered fantasy worlds and characters to help you publish books readers obsess over. 

Let’s get your fantasy book flying off the shelves, shall we?

It’s time to stop aspiring to be a romantasy author. You are one. 

Hey! I’m Sarah  🥰

Author of 2+ fantasy books, copywriter, certified proofreader, & collector of book boyfriends.

I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember. There’s hardly ever a time when I don’t have a storyline or character popping up in my head – and if it’s not my own, it’s one from a book series I can’t stop thinking about. 

I started devouring books from the moment I could read. (Is there anything better than sitting on the balcony with coffee and a good book in the morning?) 

I doubled up on English classes in high school, studied creative writing at Sarah Lawrence College, and continued to take writing classes after graduation through the Sarah Lawrence Writing Institute. 

I know how it feels to dream of having your book front and center in the bookshop window. With two fantasy books under my belt currently in the query process & 1000s of hours studying my craft, I understand the work that goes into building a rich, multi-layered world and developing relatable, unique characters that take your story from “okay” to “stayed up all night reading.” 

I started The 1031 Creative to help romantasy writers just like you dive deep into their worlds and characters so you can improve your writing, increase your chances of getting published, and develop a fanbase of readers who can’t stop talking about their new favorite fantasy author—YOU!. 

Stories are integral to the world. I can’t wait to see yours.
