Science Fiction, Fantasy, or Both?
Science fiction often asks what could happen through technology, space travel, scientific discovery, or changes to society.
Fantasy invites magic, mythology, supernatural creatures, and worlds governed by unfamiliar rules.
Some stories belong clearly to one genre. Others combine both.
Choose the direction that interests you, or create a world where starships and sorcery exist side by side.
