Meme compairing three Fantasy writers worldbuilding: J.K Rowling: Only start creating a lore after you already finished half of the series and keep adding stuff a decade after finishing it G.R.R Martin: Steal 90% of your deep lore from real life history and other authors to fill out your world map J.R.R Tolkien: Create an entire universe with a bloody, theological history with of hundreds of characters and dozens of devastating wars, then write a childrens book in it

Why researching before writing is so, so important. Screenshot from book MADERING MILLER: His skin was the color of just-pressed olive. Picture of just pressed olive that is an alien looking lime green.

That's why I write #SpeculativeFiction things are always right if I'm making everything up 😜😂 Also, did you know to create a fictional world from scratch you have to start with creating the #Multiverse? At least that's what I've been told... 😅
