It’s a dangerous thing, a dream.

To say to a mountain, be cast into the sea.
Yes.
It’s a dangerous thing to dream. -

Absolutely welcome! I may have to struggle to finish something, but characters and random ideas are my cup of tea. 🙂

Koshka replied to the topic Magic Systems in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 days, 1 hour ago
Probably both? Like, I want to have a better idea of how it all works (and why it’s magic, if that makes sense. Like Wingfeather has the Stones at the heart of the world.)
But I also do want to have it kinda randomly fantastic. It all started with my twin and I sitting with our feet in a hot tub and deciding the water was heated by…[Read more]

Um, yes?! It was a book before a movie, and the book is awesome.
And thank you. I love the little feathery guys too. Who needs regular street rats if you can have wats and wouses fluttering around.

AHHHHHH! SHE IS HERE?!?!
*Ahem*
Lovely aesthetics. I have never actually read Peter Pan or seen the movie, but I did just finish a rewrite that has definitely spiked my interest.

Hmm. I do have a series with a magic system, but as it’s a series I haven’t started writing yet (just outlining and world building *shudders*) the system isn’t all figured out.
But it’s like Wingfeather or Ella Enchanted (the book) style magic where it’s more a part of the way the world works than the regular book magic (not sure if…[Read more]

Just the fact that one of my protagonists is biracial brings up so many questions that have to be answered so I can sleep at night.
This stuff keeps you up too? XD
And oh. There’s so much. “World-building” is almost a deceivingly simple word. We’re literally making up worlds. This is micro-fictional-creation.

And the fact that A_____’s captor is a bit of an infidel because he has spurned most of the religion for a form of stoicism. His wife is devout though, and it’s sad.
*Is sad with you*

I suppose they are. *Nods sagely*
The evil/weird religious system in my WIP so far only has moon worship and possibly vag…[Read more]

OoooOOOoohHHHHhhhhh nnnNNNNOOOOooooo…….
Yep.
I do have a rough mythology as much as I want to have it. The god of war and his consort the goddess of prosperity run around doing their thing while the god of the yurt (home/tent) tries to just keep the tents from burning in the chaos. I have decided not to go too in depth, since I…[Read more]

Oh, and then you’ll have to figure out what the gods represent, and then you’ll have to have a basic mythology, and then there’s the question of how they teach this mythology….

EXACTLY. XD I even started a language simply so I could have it on signs in the illustrations. Like, no one speaks it in the story, but it’s there??? It did help me figure out the social hierarchy though, since I had all these neat names and no names to put them to.
HOWEVER. I am rather proud of the Dorwain’s pagan religion, as dark…[Read more]

Maps? I tried. I really did.

Yeah, I probably need to find some natural boundaries I can stick in. I’m not trying to be Tolkien. I just don’t know where to make it stop.
Not that I don’t love it at the same time….. -

It’s okay Keilah. The other day I called one of my characters something like “my little wolf child” and “baby”.
My older sister looked at me with this blank stare and asked who I was talking about because “Isn’t he the soldier?”

Ahhhhhhhhhhh yesss…… It never ends …..
I actually really need to flesh out some of my cultures on these lines, but then there’s the cultures inside bigger cultures, and the random pockets of society, and this is just one tribe?!
