A World of Our Own • Last activity 14/Aug

For Sci-Fi & Fantasy world building--and all sub-genres as well. Stories in contemporary settings typically don't require it, but if you have a question, perhaps someone has the experience, e.g. what an EMT does.

What we're looking for in members

Imaginative people willing to trust their lumps of coal being squeezed into diamonds. Being a world-building group, I'm not looking for chapter submissions. A chapter summary to help iron out details is fine, but there are plenty of groups already that critique manuscripts. I don't read horror or paranormal books, but I can help world build those.

Inactivity Policy

After there's activity I'll figure that out.
