Everything I write lately is in a low fantasy steampunkish world that has a lot of problems with economic disparity between the nobility and the industrialists vs. the common people after a major war, magical ecological disaster, and the societal disruption of a technological/industrial revolution
General Question: We've done Pride, Wrath, and Sloth, so let's examine Greed next. Do you examine economic disparity, greed, and selfishness in your WIPs?

My whole world was built because I wanted steam engines and airships to be a practical, viable technology longer so I added enough magic to make that happen. This story was posted for free and is the only completed one so far: www.royalroad.com/fiction/7420...

I used to do way too much worldbuilding as a way to procrastinate actually writing anything. These days I set all of my stories in the same setting/world because I already have most of it settled and I can focus on writing stories instead of reinventing magic and steam engines

Q2: How much worldbuilding do you do for your own stories? #WeeknightWriters

Not doing it too much! It's easy for me to get trapped in a cycle of doing world building instead of actually writing anything in said world

Hello #WeeknightWriters! Come on in, introduce yourself and your WIP, and let us know how your writing week is going! Or not going, that's valid too

It's best to learn the rules of writing before you ignore them. Absolutely write with your own unique voice and style but it's good to at least understand why certain conventions/rules are taught before you reject them outright in favour of your own idiosyncratic approach
if u see this, quote-post with your tips for writers that no one gives anymore because they seem obvious (even though they're not)

Writers, post something random from your backlist. Don't think. Just do it.
This was the first thing I wrote after taking ~a decade off from writing. Basically a steampunkish "Whiskey in the Jar" inspired short story. I don't hate it, which is high praise from me
