Nicole discusses the evolution of the fantasy genre from epic adventures written often by authors in one lane to a breadth of choices that offer new takes on worlds welcoming and featuring those most underrepresented in the canon. From urban to cozy, high to romantasy, Nicole advocates that there is a fantasy for everyone, which is critical, but fantasies not only offer us escape, they offer us hope.
