Science fiction is changing, and so are its readers. The cultural landscape that shaped the last 40 years of sci-fi is shifting, including thoughts about wokeness, AI, WWIII, population, and more. If you're still writing about overused and cliched sci-fi themes, you're missing the mark.
In this week's episode of Novel Marketing, we explore:

Why climate-change narratives are losing their grip on sci-fi readers
How population change can impact the next big sci-fi stories
The new role of AI in the sci-fi genre
How today's global conflicts hint at the future of war in sci-fi

Understanding these shifts will help you write more compelling stories that stand out in a genre desperate for fresh perspectives. Listen in or read the blog version to dive into the essentials of writing a sci-fi novel amidst evolving themes like population collapse and AI advancements.
