5 Things Meme: Worldbuilding

This entry is part 3 of 3 in the series 5 Things Meme

Comment to this post saying “FIVE!” and I will pick five things I would like you to talk about. They might make sense or be totally random.

Then post that list, with your commentary, to your journal. Other people can get lists from you, and the meme merrily perpetuates itself, hopefully for the rest of eternity!

Additionally, I was asked to write this post ages ago, but haven’t, primarily because it’s too big. I couldn’t get my arms around it.

Worldbuilding is writing. No matter what time period you’re in, what setting, what people, your story exists within a world, and the story builds that world within your reader’s mind.
