Tip 6
Don’t just build a world—breathe life into it.
Invented worlds can go as deep as the world outside your window, but that depth doesn’t come from geography alone—it’s the stories you unearth in those places that fill it with life. The relationships, conflicts, customs, and history bring color and dimension to your fiction. Even the smallest details can carry emotional weight.
A necklace worn in memory of a fallen friend. The smell of rain that means home to someone. A song only sung at harvest.
Let your worldbuilding ripple with glimpses of sorrow, of joy, of humanity.
✨ Build worlds that feel. Make them come alive.
