Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
Toby Ball's novels take place in the same unnamed dystopian city, though during different time periods. This week's Write the Book Prompt is to try your hand at writing a story, poem, or scene that has to do with a dystopian community. You can read more about what a dystopian society might encompass on Wikipedia.
Good luck with this prompt and please listen next week for another.
