Guess who's back .. back again ..

[Tallok]

heylo Hive, how's everyone doin?

 

[Angcuru]

Hey Tallok.

Nothing major. Just listening to some music and working on my setting. That's novelesque setting, not game setting.

 

[Tallok]

music is always good ...I 'd like to do some writing sometime, though I haven't really much, I just get so much from school.

 

[Angcuru]

Well, I have a lot of time on my hands, so finding time is easy, as it is already there.

Right now I'm basically summing up everything from the creation of the physical world to the first big climactic thingy.

 

[Tallok]

That sounds really cool. I wish I had more time, but I don't have much time to read, much the less write...

 

[Angcuru]

Ah, I'm too lazy tonight to work on this.

Basically I'm writing up the backstory of a world which I will be using as the setting for a particular story/novel, and eventually others in the form of picking and choosing from particular events and times, and elaboration. In other words, setting myself up so that if the first novel succeeds, I'll have no shortage of extra stories.

It's a long and tedious process, though. I'm just winging it so far, jotting down a flow of ideas that I'll later flesh out, edit, cut, change, rewrite, add on to, etc. etc. Until I have this big, huge thingy which will be totally and completely believable as a world. Tolkien-style, except I've got an earlier start than he did.

 

[Tallok]

Tolkien? no ambition there.
sounds interesting though

Hi Hive.

 

[Tallok]

Heylo Steve!
how're you?

 

[Steve Jung]

I'm fine, thanks. How are you Tallok? How did your poetry paper turn out?
