The fantasy we all know and love falls under a vast umbrella of subgenres and niche markets. Enter urban fantasy: magic and wonder that happens right out your front door. This subgenre layers classic fantasy tropes like magic and mythical creatures onto real-world settings you’re probably already familiar with.
We had the privilege to interview Jon R. Osborne, science fiction and fantasy author and creator of the urban fantasy series the Milesian Accords. Jon has such a great mind for worldbuilding, he literally wrote the book on it.
In Part One, We Discuss:
- The necessity of different approaches in worldbuilding for Science Fiction vs Urban Fantasy
- Real-world inspiration for Urban Fantasy: how to balance reality and fiction. Where do you take your creative liberties?
- Jon’s novella, Worldbuilding for Novices, from CKP’s Quillcraft Press
- Historical research for mythology and folklore, and the differences between the two
- Special considerations for shared world sandboxes
- Paladins of Valor, and the first contributing short story to the Milesian Accords

Enormous Thanks to Jon R. Osborne! The Milesian Accords are near and dear to Shady and H.Y.’s hearts since “Oz” opened up his universe to new authors. We’ve been so fortunate to have him as a mentor, editor, and friend in our writing careers. We’re seriously excited to share his series and non-fiction with you to aid your author journeys.
