@esther-c @janellebelovedpig @mineralizedwritings @whalekeeper @euodia-vision @godlyfantasy12 @kyronthearcanin @keilah-h @freedomwriter76 @smiley @everyone!!
Alright! I am officially taking a quick break on my WIP and I am going to start making my world, character and plot better. Realistic. Action packed. Overall better! I was thinking it would be awesome to have a forum where we could make and put all of the little random pieces and details of our books here. I came up with a whole list of random things that I wanted to create to add to my book.
Candy brands
Billboard you see when driving
Clothing and shoe brands
Fast food restaurants
Transportations
Newspaper
Magazines
Video games
Movies
Drinks, energy drinks and other
BooksUsing Canva, I am going to try to make labels, billboards, magazine covers and all the other little things. I will share some when I do and would looove to see what you all come up with also!

"Would you kindly...?"
August 14, 2023 at 8:40 pm #153936This is super cool! Worldbuilding can be frustrating, but it’s what makes it feel real.
I think my favorite thing in worldbuilding rn is the districts in my story, and the different bunkers/their history.
also @freedomwriter76
I’m sorry to inform you that during my worldbuilding the bunkers named after you (freedom bunker coalition, I couldn’t come up with a name so I used yours lol) has actually become the main villains… yeah uhm oops.

August 14, 2023 at 9:11 pm #153938Okay, I actually love this idea of designing candy wrappers and billboards and stuff. It would go amazingly with my overall Whaley Universe aestheticโฆ
Itโs a plan.

@mineralizedwritings Oh goodness…I get the villains??? XXD
i don’t mind ๐คซ๐
@acancello That’s a really cool idea!!! (really makes more of your story even more memorable! ๐)I should probably do more worldbuilding…but I’m more focused on trying to write right now๐ ๐
I’ll definitely be sharing if I do some worldbuilding though!!!

Yep! The three bunkers named after you work together to scam everyone else!! ๐ฌ๐๐ And they almost manipulate Layson into joining them because he’s in the way of their plans lol

August 15, 2023 at 5:12 pm #154047Ooh!
My brother and I do the same thing! We take inspiration from day-to-day conversation, tbh.
Like, one time, I read that the words “glitch” and “bagel” both derive from Yiddish or something like that. My brother told me “The Glitched Bagel” would be a funny name for a bagel shop….
So we made that a part of our story! It’s a bakery run by a living A.I. named Reed (hence the “glitch” part)
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
August 15, 2023 at 6:29 pm #154076August 16, 2023 at 1:38 pm #154109This is super cool!! I canโt wait to see what you come up with. Maybe Iโll have to do stuff like this too. ๐
