W is for World
Building. This may be my favorite part of writing fantasy. I enjoy
developing a world of my own. I love to draw maps. Though I am not much of an
artist, I draw maps of the entire region, the villages, and sometimes house
plans.
With my first book, MARABELLA,
DISCOVERING MAGICS, I began with the characters and built their world around
them. Now I am working on the second book in the series. I am having fun
expanding the existing world and developing new characters to inhabit it.
World
building is not just locations and maps. It also involves climate and weather,
new character races, and different cultures.
Writing fantasy gives me the
freedom to build whatever I can dream up. The laws of physics as we know them
need not apply.
What does your fantasy world look
like? Are there castles in the clouds? Do mythological creatures inhabit your
world? Are the denizens of your world something completely new? W is for World
Building. #atozchallenge
