<p>Page created.</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>I wanted to talk about how I&#039;m going to be organizing as I progress. I&#039;m starting pretty much all the elements off with just a single “Brainstorm” page, which just has one big text area where I dump everything into it in a sort of stream of consciousness manner. Then, once I&#039;ve developed more details and I get a better grasp of what it is that I really need to care about, or focus on, in that element, I&#039;ll start to develop more and more templates that will organize the information in a way that&#039;s a lot easier to read and work through.<br /> <br /> As I begin working on my first world in this project, I&#039;m already thinking about alternatives to how I&#039;m setting things up which could work well in other worlds. If I come up with anything that particularly stands out, I&#039;m going to try and note it down in either a bulk notes document, or if they&#039;re stand-out enough, in their own location element, to be developed further later. I&#039;m not sure yet whether I&#039;ll make these underdeveloped elements and notes public, or if I&#039;ll keep them private until I get around to actually working on them.<br /> <br /> I&#039;m also still debating whether I want to build a lot of worlds and them work then the stories within them, or start working on the story for this world once I&#039;ve gotten a lot of it built out, or even to start working on a story for it as I build the world. I do definitely want these worlds to stand on their own, however, so I&#039;m leaning towards building at least a few worlds first before I start really diving into any longer stories. That being said I may write a few short stories (probably &lt; 5k words) along the way to try and get something of a feel for each of the worlds.<br /> <br /> Finally, I&#039;m hoping to post new updates at least a couple times each week, whether they&#039;re just small brain dumps, or bigger more significant world-building changes. I&#039;ll also probably try to do these more meta “Blog” Posts once or twice per week to talk about why I&#039;m doing things the way I am, and what I&#039;m planning on doing in the near future.<br /> <br /> - Michael<br /> [[Category:Campfire Blog Posts]]<br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:2.
