Time period resembles ancient antiquity so definitely fantasy as opposed to sci fi. Would you find the lack of above elements off putting since it's...
In my WIP, I'm also going to write from the antagonist's POV (though not primarily). As I've said in another recent post, he's going to start out as...
I usually get this in the chapters that bridge gaps between the more important events in a story. Chance is, if it's boring to write, it's boring to...
That was well put Scribble. An antagonist who the main character knows would allow for more interesting dialogue and reaction. The worst enemies are...
For me it's just to finish a few well told stories. I write as a hobby and cannot say I'm all that bothered about being published, becoming famous or...
Sometimes the problem is compounded by a disillusionment with the world at large. I won't get specific due to this forum's political moratorium, but...
I've been interested in creating fantasy worlds ever since I read the Fabled Lands series of gamebooks as a child. Those books had a profound impression on me!!!
My project is currently dispersed within a giant stack of notebooks. I'm trying to slowly chip away at turning these nascent ideas into a coherent world--a thing--but I am so finicky I can't nail anything down! I dare say I could use some encouragement.
I realised the other day that I've never had any desire to be a published author or to pursue writing as a career. If I could call myself anything it would be a fantasy worldbuilding enthusiast, something I am delighted to find is quite a common passion among other people here.
Simply having a fictional world--or even parts of it--ready to be shared with friends and anyone who is interested would be so cool!
So, I am eager to discuss the art/craft/science of fantasy world-building with you fine folks. Feel free to drop me a line if you want to chat--you'll find I'm almost annoying friendly :P
I hang out in the worldbuilding sub-forum almost exclusively at the moment since I don't know a thing about writing fiction.
Hopefully I can get to know some of you better :)
