Welcome, everyone, to the Worldbuilder's Notepad! Here, I'll be posting semi-regular updates on any writing, worldbuilding, or art projects which I'm currently working on. I have been writing in my free time for over a year at this point, and would like to begin building an audience, partly to share my work and partly to improve it through criticism.
A typical post might begin with how must I've written since the last update, what the writing was, any drawings I've done, questions about where to take a narrative, or anything else that I think might fit. I may also posting character bios, plot synopses and other ways to get you accustomed to my worlds and characters.
There are two separate canons which I'm actively working on. The first is relatively episodic in nature, and somewhat comedic in tone, though still with an overarching story, (currently without a title). The second, however, is an entirely story-focused epic fantasy metafiction series, The Phantom Time Theory.
I have been working on the Phantom Time Theory ever since I began learning prose and storytelling a while ago, and it has only improved since then. By this point, I have a fully fleshed-out main cast, over 15 developed characters, completed worldbuilding, and a written detailing the plot of the first two book/installments. After writing, and rewriting, and editing, and rewriting again, over and over, for so long, I have committed to fully outlining the full series before I begin truly writing a full first draft.
The one without a title is, at the moment, fifteen pages of vague notes-to-self written and scattered around my desk, but essentially, revolves around an energetic, optimistic, somewhat naive magic-girl character being thrown into dangerous situations alongside her companion: an angry, serious, massive sword-wielding Shonen protagonist with unhealthy amounts of emotional baggage (This concept may or may not be elaborated on further at some point).
I draw my own characters almost exclusively, and typically with traditional art, though I will occasionally do digital, as well as sometimes draw little bits fan art or memes.
I only started taking my own art seriously a couple months ago, buying supplies, drawing from reference, learning anatomy, etc. Because of that, I'm still mostly doing pretty basic character portraits and scenes, though I very much plan to keep improving! I hope to see you all here in the future.
Will update soon,
