#Shadowshaper and #DactylHillSquad author @djolder talked about setting his stories in NYC: "There are so many ways that a city tells its stories and so many ways that a city suppresses its stories."
#CityOfGhosts author @veschwab spoke about how her characters help define the worlds of her stories: "I always write about insider/outsider culture. All of my main characters are outsiders... But in order to understand outsiders you have to understand insiders."
#Imposters author @ScottWesterfeld's advice for world-building: "Don't just build the world, but make sure people have lived in the world and start to scribble and scrawl."
