I don’t want to make a whole other forum for this, so I’ll ask it here. XD

Does anyone have any dystopian book recommendations?

Cool!!!! I really like all your worldbuilding!! ♥️♥️ And 5000 words is a lot already, (didn’t you jest start?) I’m about 5000 words through my WIP and it took me like a month or so (I started it a while ago, I think I’m going to keep working on it as soon as I get the outline) XD

I don’t do this with all of my moodboards, but with some of them, I’ll pick a certain color I want for the character’s aesthetic.
