Fiction ‘brings lectures to life’ as academics face empty classes
University ‘whodunnit’ inspired by attempts to tackle poor attendance as scholars look for novel ways to engage mainstream audiences
@timeshighered.bsky.social wrote a lovely article about my work using #storytelling in #highereducation. It got some bitter comments about having to entertain to get students to turn up. They have a point but I do what I must to get bums on seats! www.timeshighereducation.com/news/fiction...

Great piece, and a motivating sales pitch in one. I concur with your perspective on climate fiction, and am glad to see someone is focused on building agency in readers, rather than despair.

The main image is a hand-made sign on cardboard proclaiming "Protect our planet!", and it has a drawing of the planet Earth on it. It is held aloft against a clear blue sky. On top of this is the text: Write solutions, not just dystopias, to inspire change: Introducing the climate-conscious writers handbook. In a box below this is the text 'Guest post by Wren James, Founder of the Climate Fiction Writers League'. Wren is pictured standing by the ocean.
Meet the writer and mission behind The Climate-Conscious Writers Handbook—and consider this guest post from Wren James, founder of the Climate Fiction Writers League, a call to arms for all writers.
