So, I have been very busy writing lately. I am on the tail end of completing my latest novel, which really required me to create an entirely different reality and world. It was a long, arduous process filled with many hours of thinking and sleepless nights imagining what this world and these characters would be like. Therefore, it would seem that this link, http://www.sfwa.org/2009/08/fantasy-worldbuilding-questions/, referred to me by one of my favorite blog sites now, the steampunk blog STEAMED at http://ageofsteam.wordpress.com/, has come a bit too late. Still, it is always beneficial to check yourself against the experts' idea of how a world should be built, just in case you forgot those tiny little things, like whether your characters sweeten their drinks or if their buttons are glass or metal or what their favorite curse word is. What I've learned most of all in this process is that the details matter. A lot.
If you are building your own world now, good luck, good writing, and I hope this link helps!

That's cool... but, yet, where is your indelible SOUL going after you leave your mortal body (our physical bodies decompose). Find-out where we went...
ReplyDeleteAs a writer of the sassy, savvy, insane yooFEMisms we A-L-L go through in this finite existence, I as well as you gotta lotta angst, too, and the synonymous metaphors which shall creeep stealthily across thy brain like the vivid, brazen dawn are the cohesion which brings U.S. together, girl.
So, see if you cannot subliminally 'read-between-the-lines' or VERBUM SAT SAPIENTI (Latin: words to the wise): here's summore symbiotically-explosive-coolness done in sardonic satires when we passed-away:
Here's what the prolific, exquisite GODy sed: 'the more you shall honor Me, the more I shall bless you' -the Infant Jesus of Prague.
Go git'm, girl. You're incredible.
See you Upstairs...
