World Building For A Fantasy Novel

 This is new for me.  I started out as a Romance Writer,  Moved to Paranormal Romance Writer to Zombie Writer to Christian Writer.  Now I am venturing into being a Fantasy Writer.





So I will blog on how my writing is going.  This is what I have done so far:

1.  I googled world building and found a great PDF to print out  (Google The Ultimate Worldbuilding Template and print it out or save it on your computer.

2.  Went and bought new notebooks and 1 sketchpad notebook.  The sketchpad notebook I am using for my drawings (Not that I can draw at all) and to place important ideas or whatever for a quick reference.

3.  I went online to find pictures of my characters.  I looked at book covers to find my pictures  (Google premade bookcovers)  I printed out the covers, cut out what I wanted and placed them in my sketch pad.  I also Goggled Fantasy Characters.  Just to find pictures of what I want my characters to look like.

4.  I Googled Old English Names to find my Character's Name.  Google- Fantasy Character Names, Old Biblical Names, Old Scottish Names, whatever kind of name you are looking for.

5.  Now I have my Characters in my sketch pad and a PDF of World Building.

6.   Now I can start Plotting.  That is where I am now.  

7.  I did write the 1st seen of the book.  To introduce the Characters. Not a complete scene just a general idea of who they are and what they want

8.  I am still plotting.  That is where I am at.  I have my Characters and still working on the World Building.

Where are you at in your writing?
