Imagining the future

On May 21st, I'll be joining Marija Gavrilov to discuss how to think like a science-fiction writer:

Imagination and storytelling in times of crisis are powerful vectors for activating change.

We'll come together with science-fiction writers in a semi-bookclub format to discuss imagination, possible futures, and better worlds.

The first session is with Eliot Peper, whose latest speculative thriller Veil  (out May 20th) depicts a near-future shaped by the climate crisis and attempts at geoengineering.

RSVP to participate in the live event right here.

Complement with this podcast interview about science fiction and scenario planning, Your Strategy Is Your Story, and how I went about extrapolating the future described in Borderless.
