Haha, right! I saw you replying and for some reason thought you were the one with the post. 😉

Anyhow @padawanpadme XD

@cassandraia

Okay, well first off I’m going to recommend watching some of Hello Future Me’s great video essays on fantasy governments on Youtube. They’re really great. 😉

And secondly, I’m going to echo Evelyn for a moment. Values. Values are possibly the single most important thing of a government – because in essence, a government is a group…[Read more]

@cassandraia  Hi and sorry it took me so long to respond! Thank you so much for your detailed response, it was great!

Well, that’s okay because I’m not crazy about medieval fantasies about kings and queens either. They’re not bad, just grossly overdone and a little boring to me at the moment.

Thanks for those examples, they gave me some great…[Read more]

@cassandraia thanks for thinking of me! Unfortunately I absolutely stink at flash fiction. 😛 I’ll keep this in mind for if I ever want to improve though. 😉

@ariella-newheart

🙂 So glad to be of service…

Now… I’m pretty sure that tactic makes the story omniscient… because an omniscient narrator looks in on the mind of the character, from the outside. This means he can actually do it with any character, though… this is hard to balance. An omniscient narrator can stick with primarily one…[Read more]

@cassandraia You’re welcome! 🙂

Like @cassandraia said, I’d recommend looking at real-world government types. After you’re sort of familiar with how they work, you can even adapt them. For instance, there are theocracies (nations run by the religious leaders), but what if instead of religion it was science that was most important and you had a technocracy? Or what if the nation…[Read more]

Time to turn in your word counts, guys. 🙂

@cassandraia Aww, thanks so much for tagging me and inviting me to this! ❤️ I don’t have Facebook either…so I won’t be able to participate. But I hope you all have tons of fun and I can’t wait to read the prompts on your blog!!

@cassandraia I don’t have Instagram, sorry. If I did I’d be following you! 😄

@kayla-skywriter @cassandraia @eden-anderson @bama-rose

Maybe if we just added a link to it? Or did y’all already try that?

@bama-rose Yayy!!!!! That’s awesome! I can post it on Instagram! I’m not sure how you’re wanting to do this exactly, but you could either message me on Insta (my tag is @anne_the_emberling) with the cover whenever you’re ready for me to post it, or if you post it on SE, just tag me or whatever I guess 🙂 (Also, I don’t have that many followers,…[Read more]

Guyyyys I just got instagram! So now I’m officially cool, right? 😜 Just kidding. My name or whatever is alabamarose_writer. Or something like that. I found you, @cassandraia, but I didn’t find you, @emberynus-the-dragonslayer. So, yeah! I’m new to Instagram, so I might flounder for a bit, lol.

@w-o-holmes

Ah, yep. Understood. 😉
