    Inspiration from places you've visited

    I've been in Scotland for almost a week now and I'll be staying there for another month and a half.

    New Universe Creation

    Character confusion at all of the sights, smells, and sounds is an excellent way to introduce new surroundings. Also, I sometimes have my characters interacting with another character as well as their surroundings. I find that way to be a bit of a challenge, but, for me, it ends up reading...

    My character's powers?
