I have always preferred creating maps and geography over other types of writing, I love learning about language rules and I occasionally find myself thinking about conlanging in the most random moments

If I had to categorise it, I would mostly call myself a cartographer in the space of world building

What do you prefer? I know some that love creating unique species, others just fucking around with planets, some just like making art for characters they wrote about

    The kind where I build everything in my head, write nothing down, forget it in a day or two never to be seen again while I feel sad about not ever developing them properly

    Right now, it’s been super easy for me to get sucked into developing peoples and the history of cultures, technologies, and nations. I selfhost Trilium and have turned part of it into a wiki for that stuff. I would like to start focusing on the micro-scale at this point, though. It’ll be fun for me to start fleshing out cities and the people in them.
