The rabbit hole of world building:
I started out creating my world with the history of being in the future with a dystopian type history to end up with the fantasy world I have. It has now developed into multiple realms, multiple languages, and the need of its own published history book. 😉

Did a character revamp. Multiday project, but I love how she turned out!

What's your favorite way to write? Music that puts in a scene? A comfort show that you can play in background? Silence, just you are your words? Mine is watching movies in a different language!
Playing right now? Moana in Te reo Māori. (Ōlelo Hawaiʻi is not available on my Disney+)

I completely understand that. For me, it's been really helpful with giving me resources for creating an organizational process for my very choas brain. I have also found image generators very helpful to see concepts of my writing to make sure they are coming across like I want them too.

AI is reshaping writing—some see it as a tool to enhance creativity, others fear it takes from storytelling’s heart.

Should AI assist with brainstorming, world-building, or editing?

Does it help or feel like a shortcut? Let’s talk!

Sometimes writers block is funny. I can not for the life of me get to writing my book, but I can create a language, create myths and legends, and down spiral world building.
But hey, now upon a random language I created, I also now have an entire religion to go with it? 😅

Meet Amber: our lovely in universe marketing person. I had this vision that someone from inside the universe would help share the stories and I finally brought it to life!

I'm starting to get used to my new routine:
Get up
Go to work
Feed and water myself
Get myself home
Saying I'm going to sleep
Stay up and work on characters until it's 4am

Oops 😅
I've done this idk how many times now 🤦🏻

Each star holds a fragment of a story; weave the threads together, and a book emerges.

I never thought that I'd be working so hard on making such a complex world for this book. From myths and legends, to language systems. It's a new ride and I can't wait to see where it leads!

Fellow Writers... Do any of you secretly (or not so secretly) aspire to have your book land on a banned books list? To me, it would mean I Succeeded in making people think, feel and engage with the tough topics I care about. What about you- would it be a badge of honor?

🌟 It started with a dream...
One that grew into myths, legends, and an entire fantasy world. Now, it's time to share that dream with you. A story of secrets, adventure, and unraveling mysteries awaits. Are you ready for a new adventure? Stay tuned!
