World Building: Taking the mundane and making it fantastical
There is no right or wrong way to world build. If you ask a thousand authors how they create their world, they will all tell you something different. This is not a book that needs to be completed all at once, or even totally filled out. It is a work in progress that aims to help you with your story.
As the author of a series with over 900 worlds in it, and a detailed, six generation deep family tree for an entire island of people, I’m rather practiced at world building, and thought I’d share my process with you. Of course, this has been adapted, and you’re more than free to take white out to the bits you don’t want to complete (or just ignore them for now, they may spark ideas later on!)
Use this workbook to create your own worlds and give them depth in the story you write.

About the author
R. Lennard
21 books89 followersR. Lennard dreamed of being the headmistress of a boarding school, a jockey, a ballet dancer and a diplomat. At the same time. Two left feet stopped the dancing dream, and a fear of falling stopped the jockey one.
At ten years old, when she discovered that the squiggles on the page actually meant something, she devoured every book in the library before figuring out that she could be all she dreamed of and more if she wrote the book.
Rebecca enjoys learning about ancient civilisations, cosplaying and endless cups of tea. An avid fantasy and sci-fi reader, she fell in love with dragons, space travel, discovering fantastical history and stepping through a cupboard. Fantasy became her home away from home, and she loves to share the worlds she's created with her readers in the YA series, Lissae.
Residing on the beautiful Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia, Rebecca enjoys the natural beauty of both the beach and the bush, finding hidden writing spots as a makeshift office.
When Rebecca isn't writing, she's masquerading as one of the librarians on the Sunshine Coast. If you want to know when Rebecca's next book will come out, please visit her website where you can sign up to receive emails with exclusive extras and get notified when she has her next release.
