Spend time and space on the things that make your world/setting different and/or interesting....that is, a fantasy setting is often just a fantasy setting....but there are things in each fantasy setting that make make it different....often they are little things, we'd like to hear those.  We want the big things too, of course, but the Devil is often in the details.  Things like race interaction, politics, distribution of wealth, social conditions, city life vs. rural life, and so on can be radically different from setting to setting....do try to address these things.Also, I should have made it clearer, please keep it in the fantasy realm (although, if you've got a good idea for another setting in another genre, let us know....we just may be interested).One more thing: Please keep it as close to 10 pages as you can....if it runs over a little, that's ok, but not more than a page or two.  Also, you don't have to count any maps or illustrations you would like to include in the page count.  Even if we just get fifty folks that are interested....that would be 500 pages of stuff!  So, help us out on that.Any other questions, please feel free to ask.  HOWEVER: at about 8am, EST on WED. I am leaving town (and computer) until Saturday afternoon, so I will not be able to answer questions until then....I will check before I leave in the morning however.Thanks for the interest!</blockquote>
