Feel free to ask questions or chime in with your own #worldbuilding if it reminds you of something here.

MORENZI CASTES

#amwritingfantasy #amwriting #SFFWritersCommunity
I talked about Morenzal a few weeks ago and had to glaze over their caste system because it was too long for that topic. I wanted to do this in full, though! The Morenzi have some sexual practices and rituals, so this topic may be triggering to some and features #nsfw discussion.
As a reminder, Morenzal is an isolated society on the Quarantined Plane. The Morenzi are humanoid, silver-haired, light-skinned people. They are all Mind elementals and worship Lucognidus with utmost fervor. They perform worship ceremonies a minimum of four times per day, though

Back in the fantasy novel writing saddle again after too many days off.

I’ll definitely be revising the hell out of this section in the future but I got forward progress either way. #amwritingfantasy Image
You can see here my multi-day faltering although overall I’m ahead of the (arbitrary) deadline I made for myself. Image
Oh and of course the co-writer update Image

Today’s fantasy novel progress. Banking words for those days when I will inevitably come up dry. #amwritingfantasy Image
I write to the white noise of snowstorms, probably because I have the fantasy of one day going up to some cabin (!) to write.
Meanwhile this little guy is mostly unimpressed with my literary pursuits. Image

Satlick: Centaur Detective #7
Note
I'm giving up on the story in picture format, it's a pain in the ass for me and elongates the whole process.
So it's back to extra long threads for now.
I'll use @threadreaderapp at the end for those who find it a bit much.
Now where were we...
"I dislike small talk Commander as well you know, the Darwinists, while a problem, are not our current problem" Saltlick replied in a professorial tone "Honestly I don't know how you people get anything done!"
"You people?" the other three people said at once, leaping at a golden
opportunity to flummox the centaur.
"Are you a speciest now Saltlick?" asked the commander* *Like a racist except for other species rather than other people of the same biological class, seen as terrible character flaw and indicator of stupidity by most people in the city.**

I thought today we'd have a nice chat about outlines today.

Are they the enemy? Are you making them the enemy? What do they do? What good are they? Why is this the hill people want to die on?

For reasons I never learned in school and have only barely begun to learn in life as a professional, people absolutely love labels for their work, and the work of others. It gives them something to debate, it gives them something to cling to or hide from.
Right up there with the show-vs-tell argument is another ancient battlefield with its own misconceptions, assumptions, heaps of bullshit, and utility.

Pantser and plotter.

Yeah, we're going there today.
