[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 640301, member: 2012"] [b]Homebrewing is my passion![/b] Wow, that's an open-ended question. When it comes to my homebrew settings (yes, [b]settings[/b], as in multiple settings) almost anything can motivate me to work on it. However, there is a difference between motivation and inspiration, IMO. Motivation is hard. This is when a part of you feels that you should be working on the campaign setting so much that you find the time to work on the world - like it's second job. 1) My website is one of those things that motivates me because of the section that is devoted to my RPG campaigns called Walk the Road. [url]http://www.geocities.com/rielun/campaignsframe.htm[/url] Here, you will find details about the different homebrew campaign settings that I've currently developing. 2) My Story Hours here on EN World have been my biggest motivators lately. (See under my sig.) Inspiration is easy. When a great book or movie inspires me then I can spend hours working on my campaign settings. The book/movie doesn't even need to be fantasy based. It just has to turn on that part of your soul that drives creativity. Music and art work the same way for me. I have several instrumental CDs which, when cranked, get my creative juices flowing. Art sites such as Epilogue.Net and Elfwood do the same thing. Now, while inspiration is easy. Finding time to sit down and become inspired is another thing entirely. That you have to work for. Of course, I single and on disability so it's easier for me to find the time to become inspired. Those with kids and a job will have a lot more difficulty finding the time to work on a homebrew campaign setting. Lately, I've been unable to work on my campaign settings at all due to my disability - bum arm/shoulder - but since I'm mouse hand dominant with the other hand I have bee nable to work on my world mapping somewhat. See the thread below: Knightfall's CC2 Cartography Thread [url]http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=37224[/url] Anyway, I have to stop typing now. Later, KF72 [/QUOTE]
