In this session, join local sensation Tigest Girma (Immortal Dark, Eternal Ruin), international bestselling author R.F. Kuang (Babel, Katabasis) and genre queen Lili Wilkinson (Unhallowed Halls) as they discuss writing novels steeped in murder, magic and deeply buried secrets, and why dark academia is a uniquely suited to teasing out nuances of class, race and gender. With Amie Kaufman.
