Originally I was going to use this prechapter ramble to talk about my impressions of Realist Hero’s latest episode.
Instead I’m going to follow up on my previous ramble about worldbuilding and art.
I finally settled on what piece of art I will commission next.
Although if I can grab a slot with the artist is up to chance, so we shall see!
But I’m thinking of going with Eleanor (the heroine) in a ball gown type formal dress.
We’ve brainstormed ideas and I have a pretty solid vision of her style, so I think it will turn out well.
The original plan was to get the main protagonist done, but he can wait.
Do you ever just do research for a novel you’re working on and just… get lost in the aether?
First I wanted to use alchemy symbols for the magic but realised alchemy went out of fashion before a lot of the scientific concepts my magic uses were invented, so I’d have to invent old style alchemy symbols to fill the gaps in scientific development! I’d literally be reinventing the periodic table!
Then I was looking at submarine concepts on how the design of the magical submarine would work and ended up on some scifi royal navy concept vessel that used zero point energy.
Crazy!
I need to stop worldbuilding and eventually write one day.
Also casual plug that you should check out the art of the main heroine I commissioned!
