I am rewriting the advice I gave on my Tumblr almost 10 years ago! I felt so passionate about these when I was younger, and I’m pumped to revisit them!
This week, “Creating a Fantasy Culture: A Guide to Building Believable Worlds.”

GOSH, this summer has been exhausting. Between vacations, extra shifts at work, and starting graduate school, I feel like I've been driving myself INSANE! 😴
Things have, FINALLY, calmed down, and I have mental space for my creativity again.

I’ve been following my motivation recently due to an INSANE and EXHAUSTING summer, and really only writing when I feel like. A break for one’s brain is super important!
I don’t feel back quite yet, but I know I’m on the way. Here’s to a relaxing and healing autumn 🍂🧡

Nothing beats having an overwhelming hyper-fixated creative vibe suddenly possessing your entire being, and knowing the next month or two of creativity is about to go absolutely wild

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 1777:
Everything you experience informs your work. In summer, write about the heat; the vegetation; the scent of the sea. In winter, write about the cold; the darkening sky; the onset of snow. Use everything you feel: grief, anxiety, joy, love, pain. It's all good.

Writing an in-depth outline sure is fun - I'm having an awesome time with this one! Just finished up to Chapter 10, and mine is already 2.5k words... definitely be a record for me!
Are you a plotter or a pantser? What's your outlining process like?

This just in - on top of all the other things you can do in #Canva, it's great for creating blueprints!
I'm creating my world's capital building right now, a place called the Oxborough Embassy. I'll definitely need to know how it's laid out, since my cast will be there OFTEN!

And it looks like I’m out for the next few days… COVID found its way to me. Time to rest and recover, and today … mostly sleep.
Hope you guys are having a better day than me!

Feeling inspired to develop the educational side of my world recently - partly because my main character is a student, and partly because I am, too!

If you ever find this place taking a toll on your mental, just log off bro. Seriously, just chill, step away. No need to take it out on others or worsen your own state of mind. Shit sucks right now. Our brains aren't meant to be barraged like this. We'll be here when you get back. You're all good.

How genre-savvy are your characters? Do they know what's up?
What genre do they THINK they are in vs the genre you've written them into?
