Ever heard of the Hero’s Journey? Even if you haven’t, you know it: Star Wars, LOTR, The Lion King, even Shrek follow it. A hero leaves, grows, returns changed. It's one of the oldest plot recipes out there.

If your protagonist or story had a theme song, what would it be?

What do Harry Potter, LOTR, Hunger Games & Game of Thrones all share? Symbols. From houses to rebellions, logos bring teams to life, make worlds feel real, and—let’s be honest—make great merch. Writers, don’t underestimate the power of a good symbol.

Whether you're quoting Star Wars, The Hunger Games, or A Song of Ice and Fire, each of these sayings reflects the world they come from. They hint at lore, add emotional weight, and instantly ground readers in the setting.

#WritingTip
Including food in your novels can activate 3 of the senses for your readers, and can be a marketing tool! 🍔

A meal stands out to a reader who then tries to make it and posts a recipe. Later, someone come across it, gets curious of the source of the recipe, and picks up your book.

Welcome to #FantasyFictionFriday —a weekly space where we dive into the writing process together! Each week, we’ll post a question to spark conversation.

Question 1:
Do you keep a separate document for worldbuilding notes, or do you store it all in your head?
