Creating a Fantasy World – Writing Things Down

This isn’t about world building as an end goal.

I’m not planning a game system, languages or anything of that type. I’m reverse engineering a world which I’ve had a clear picture in my mind for twenty years. And it’s hard. It’s so easy to just write and let your world get away from you.

But I’m not good at remembering what I did. I tell the story of the Left Turn, in which, my characters turned left for 100 pages. Oops.

I’ve spent much of the last few years just trying to scrape up the energy to create, so this is my starting point. On Wednesdays, I stream part of the process on Twitch. If you’re interested you can see the work I’m doing here: Eidmaharia.
