Whether your story is set in a real-life city, a distant planet, or an imaginary place, setting can be critical. You’ll need to know how your characters get around, how long it takes to get from place to place, and what they’ll see along the way. Authors whose stories are set in a variety of places—from early 20th century Paris to a confined spaceship—will speak on this panel.

Featuring Alastair Reynolds, Constance Sayers, Alex Jennings, and Django Wexler
