Haly, the Moonlight Bardand Television Sky present

$400 • 6 Weeks • 10 Seats

Haly, the Moonlight Bard, is bringing her sell-out GenCon worldbuilding workshop (the one you’d otherwise have to physically be there for) exclusively to Television Sky.

This is the remastered, expanded version. And you don’t even have to leave your chair.

WHO IS HALY!?

WHO IS HALY?!

Haly, the Moonlight Bard, is a professional worldbuilding consultant, author, and game designer.

• Five-time WorldAnvil community judge
• 2024’s “Most Helpful Camper” and “Eternal Sage”
• Fiction featured in Substack’s Top in Fiction (August 2025)

She’s been dreaming up new worlds since 1983 when she first learned Dungeons & Dragons.

She specializes in contemporary worldbuilding, but has deep experience in fantasy, sci-fi, and historical settings—the kind of worlds that grab you by the face, kiss you hard, mug you, and leave you in a damp alley of your own making.

WHY YOU’RE SIGNING UP:

You want to unlock the secrets and write stories people want to live in, not just read.

Worldbuilding is how you do that.

It’s also one of the most misunderstood parts of craft: often denigrated, treated as an optional add-on, or shoved into fantasy/sci-fi only. In reality, worldbuilding is a critical step in any kind of storytelling, and in a whole lot of communication that pretends it isn’t storytelling at all.

In this workshop, you’ll learn:

• What worldbuilding actually is
• What it is not (If you’re dumping walls of text, something’s gone wrong)
• Why every genre from epic fantasy to litfic to “I swear this is just a work email” depends on it

This workshop is perfect for:

• Authors in ANY genre
• Non-fiction writers (yes, engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, grindset assholes: looking at you)
• Game designers, TTRPG folks, and anyone else who builds worlds for other brains to inhabit

A Note from Emil

Haly isn't JUST the Moonlight Bard, she's ALSO The Bard of the Velvet and a founding member of Television Sky. Her comprehensive theory on worldubilding takes into account things you've never considered. This is going to be a DEEP DIVE, and well worth the coin.

We brought you the Return of Craig Clevenger after over a decade.

We brought you Charlene Elsby's first wildly fun and successful solo writing workshop.

Now, comes The Moonlight Bard, to tell you how you've been wrong about worldbuilding all along. And she'll be right about it.

I promise you’ll get your worth, and come out of it a little dizzy, confused about the world you’ve built for yourself in the real, but, with more tools as a writer.

— Emil Ottoman, co-founder Television Sky

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN & MAKE

Over six weeks, you will:

• Gain a thorough understanding of worldbuilding and its importance to narrative, regardless of genre
• Develop and practice new creative-thinking skills that apply to all forms of storytelling
• Learn a five-point creative-thinking framework to build a “world” from the ground up
• Develop a “world” overflowing with conflict, drama, and story potential
• Draft an original short story set in your new “world”

By the end, you won’t just have ideas. You’ll have a functioning narrative ecosystem and a draft that proves it.
