Exploring World-Building

Hello fellow authors and NaNoWriMoers!

Going through my collection of resources and I figured week two of NaNo has begun. I only wrote 2,080 words but that's more than the previous three days combined so it's a good day indeed!

Here is an interesting read (outlined below), especially for those who might struggle with world-building (such as myself).

1. Create the Place

2. Draw the "Map"

3. How To Invent Religion

4. Geographical and Geological Features

5. Transportation

6. Clothing

7. Food, Plants, Animals

8. The Final Touch

Here is my week two challenge to you all: work on your word-building. Remember, all words towards your NaNo novel count so why not take some time if you're having a block on the plot to figure out the world your characters live in? It'll open up some plot ideas that propel your story forward, and that's the point of the exercise, my friends.

Create an inspiration board that falls into the 8 outlined points above and see what happens for you!

Here are some of my inspiration pieces for HOWL.
