It encourages a response in fiction to sometimes real-world themes, like climate change, technology, societal dysfunction, and the crucial what if? In this online feedback clinic that runs over five months, author Eugen Bacon will offer you feedback on your short story or excerpt of a longer work of fiction, enabling you to hone your work with believable worlds and robust characters in convincing speculative fiction.
