Hi Claire, I have read your article on writer’s edit about world building. Just out of curiosity, have you actually wrote a story with a imaginary world you have created and you draw your experience from its creation in the writing of the article?
I have questions.. because I had done one myself.
Appreciate if you could reply, from one writer to another.
Regards
Liam.
Hi Liam,
Thanks so much for your comment. I’m glad you read the world-building article and I hope you found it helpful!
The article doesn’t actually draw on much personal experience — I haven’t actually written anything substantial set in a developed imaginary world, so I just did a lot of research and drew on the work and advice of other writers. Feel free to leave a comment below the article on Writer’s Edit, though, and post your questions there — perhaps it will start a discussion with other writers who do have firsthand experience, whether they’re part of our team or have just happened upon the article like yourself.
I’m sorry I couldn’t be of further help to you myself! I wouldn’t want to pretend to have firsthand knowledge and experience that I actually don’t, so I thought it would be best to direct you towards those who may have better advice than I do :)
Thanks again and I wish you all the best with your fictional world!
