D. Gray Warrior
Troubadour
So, I often hear about how fantasy writers should be original, but I find that advice to be difficult.
I often default to standard Medieval Europe for my settings. I know I can branch out more, but it often doesn't feel the same. I also feel compelled to replicate real life cultures as closely as possible, but trying to make new cultures from the ground up seems like a daunting task.
How do you go about inventing cultures?
