5 Tips On World Building: Part 1EDIT: If you like this journal entry, check out The Sarcastic Guide to Writing ebook http://www.amazon.com/The-Sarcastic-Guide-Writing-ebook/dp/B005TOCC1C for exclusive content on world-building, character, and dialogue!
World-building, for me, is one of the biggest things about fantasy. It has, in many cases, saved a book from sucking. Conversely, poor world-building can drag a brilliant plot and excellent characterization down. What is world-building? It is consistency of logic and the new rules that you introduce as part of the story. Easy to say, hard to do. World-building, in good fantasy, more often than not, provides some kind of critical plot point. (If it doesn't, that's okay, but really good fantasy usually takes an established rule and gives it story stakes.)

Sooo... Have you all seen xtranormal? It's a text-to-video generator which is quite impressive, actually. There are some hilarious ones out there if you look. I'm fond of the one about a guy who thinks he's going to publish a novel by Christmas... starting in December.

Anyway! I used that lovely software to create a video form of the epilogue to What it Means to Lose Control. Check it out?

You can watch it on youtube: [link] or on xtranormal, here: [link] .
