Short DescriptionWriter and poet Bryan Thao Worra teaches an overview of possibilities - and cautions - in writing with Southeast Asian inspirations.
Long DescriptionAs more games, films, and stories turn to Southeast Asia, particularly during the Vietnam War and the US Secret War in Laos that ended 50 years ago, there are many opportunities for creators to work with a fascinating range of myths, legends, epics, and supernatural creatures, but there are also risks of outdated and insensitive stereotypes that can limit an audience. From weretigers and serpentine nagas, to spectral phi and shapeshifting giants, to newer creations, author Bryan Thao Worra will provide an overview of your possibilities and resources to improve your projects. Track: GCWS Classroom.
