How To Write Science Fiction & Fantasy by Orson Scott Card

A practical handbook for writers of speculative fiction that breaks down the craft into actionable guidance: generating ideas, constructing believable worlds and systems, developing characters and plots, handling point of view, dialogue, theme, and pacing, and integrating scientific or fantastic elements so they enhance rather than overwhelm the story. It offers concrete techniques, examples, exercises, and editorial advice on revision, submission, and the publishing market, emphasizing clarity, economy of language, and reader engagement. Geared to both beginners and experienced writers, it focuses on building convincing, emotionally resonant science-fiction and fantasy narratives.
