    How deep are your worlds?

    There is alot of traveling in it yes, and I am not done with charecter development, those would just be bages of the lowest detail, I have it all in my head just not all wrtten down yet, honestly, I would be better to make a video game rather then a novel but I love the writing and am no good...

    Go with the Flow, Build as you go?

    It really just depends for me, I start out building my world and then writing, but if I want a change in mid- write, I will go for it in a heartbeat and hope it sounds better, if it doesn't sound better then I will simply change it back and start back to the old script that I still enjoyed. So...

    Dragons in stories

    You mean, like Maybe actually name them as if it were a charecter right? If that is what you mean, then yes, I have actually thought about it, and I am making something of the sort in my novel as we sit and spin our observations back and forth, you bring up some well written arguments.

    Dragons in stories

    I was reffering to the name change just as a thought, and the Raven thing is explained in the novel I am writing, but yes as it stands, I do understand why it would not make much sense, I chose the name due to the fear of both dragons and Ravens in superstition. I see it as an open minded...

    Suggestions and feedback on one of my cultures

    In all honesty, this is a very detailed piece you have here, I see a few things wrong with it, but they can only be fixed through the actual storyline.

    Does World Building Scare You?

    True, honestly. I like the idea, I use all the basic crafting things, but I have never actually researched into them, maybe that will help the awful writers' block I seem to have, I must give my gratitude for this.

    Describing Races

    Simply build a place in your middle- Earth that would be the equivilent of Russia, and creat a new race from that, I might not be grasping the actual concept of what you are asking, if not, tell me and I will gladly try again.

    Dragons in stories

    The idea of different varients of dragons bassed on the elements is a bit old-school but it is good, make sure you include special features, like if it is a cold place, give the dragon thick fur, it would be different, and maybe do about naming them something other then dragons, for example, I...

    Calendars and Days
