GEORGE R R MARTIN, THE CREATOR OF HOUSE OF THE DRAGON, ON FANTASY WORLD BUILDING

The recent clip featuring George R R Martin is described as part planning, part imagination, and the final product: magic, where we have the celebrated writer talking about the building of the magical world, we have been sucked in once and are ready to divulge in once more.

Martin discusses how presenting the fantasy elements is one of the most important and critical qualities of a fantasy writer. He enthuses people by saying that if you have the right formula to write a fantasy story, you can. He goes into the details about the Valyrians and their blood magic, and how their self and the connection they share with the dragons play a major role in creating magic.
