Hiya, @epicaddie2! My favorite character in the Wingfeather Saga is Janner. I like Kalmar and Artham a lot, too. Ikr, the last book! I cried both times I read it. I totally agree, Peterson is awesome. Have you heard his music. He writes really good music, too, and his voice is awesome.

@ingridrd I love listening to soundtracks – they often remind me of my daydreamed stories. It’s awesome. Have you heard the song “Shells” from the Finding Dory movie. It’s the song that’s playing when Dory (SPOILER ALERT!!!) reunites with her parents. When I hear that song, I also think of reunion or reconciliation.

@emily So yeah I would highly…[Read more]

I’ve written past the sixth chapter, so I guess you could say I’m editing…

@allison-grace The sixth chapter in my WIP. What about you?

@emily I usually find them by chance, whenever I’m listening to the radio or something.
@kate-flournoy I listened to that song and it sounds like you have a very interesting MC. 😉

@allison-grace LOL 🙂

@allison-grace Okay, I’ll quit bugging you. 😉

@allison-grace So are you brainstorming, outlining or daydreaming at the moment?

@Ingridrd millions.

Okay, maybe not millions… ;P But practically every piece of music I hear reminds me of something or someone somewhere. This is one of my favorites, for the brother (king) of my current MC.

@allison-grace I doubt you’re still there…but I’m writing now!

*moans petulantly* Why are there no Floridian KeePers?

@That_Writer_Girl_99 😂 😂 😂

What can I say? I learned from the best. 😉 @kate-flournoy

@That_Writer_Girl_99 a girl after my own heart. 😉

My thoughts exactly @kate-flournoy. That, to me, makes it one of the most interesting aspects of world-building.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 good thoughts. I played around a lot with government and where it fits in, but it was so equally part of all four of the pillars I couldn’t bring myself to make it its own separate one. 😛
It’s probably the most perfect manifestation of a country’s EiL within itself, whereas Economy is a further exploration of that outside of…[Read more]

*grins* *offers her advice even though she wasn’t tagged* @kate-flournoy and I have actually discussed this a lot recently, because my new WIP has a huge world–actually, two worlds, each with very different takes on the four pillars she mentioned.

1. History
2. Religion
3. Geography
4. Economy

If I could squeeze in a fifth one, though, I’d add…[Read more]

@epicaddie2 Ooooh I was talking about this a while back… let me go copy and paste my emails… XD

It’s a fairly simple thing, but once you delve into it there’s a lot to work with.
Basically, I came up with four pillars I think every culture is built on.

1. History
2. Religion
3. Geography
4. Economy

In that order. History and Religion…
