How to Write Fiction: Build your Fictional World using the Muse's input!
Last week we went over building a Sweet Spot Map. This week we go over how to use the map for worldbuilding.
In this episode Author and Fiction Teacher Holly Lisle and I (host, Rebecca Galardo) discuss how to take what you've written down on your map and build the world from it, using examples from both of our works. We'll show you how almost anything can be turned into a worldbuilding element, how to pick out the important parts and how to navigate your way through your muse's more incoherent ramblings.
