#WritersCoffeeClub/ #EpigraphCoffeeClub Oct-30 How much world-building do you do before starting your first draft?

For me this depends very much on the genre. Since I write a lot of contemporary drama or similar contemporary genres, there usually isn't much worldbuiling needed, as the world can be used as is for the most part.

@strangeseawolf @clarablackink @crcollins @ElisesWritings Of course, this could also work from the other perspective when you want to have certain user's toots in your feed, but only when they toot about, for example, #WordWeavers or #amWriting or #amWritingDrama

@strangeseawolf @clarablackink @crcollins @ElisesWritings There's another problem, that some people might have:

They want to follow, for example, #WordWeavers, but only in the context of #amWritingDrama and #amWritingFantasy. Or the other way around, following #WordWeavers, but not posts with #amWritingHorror. These combinations are currently not easy to configure.

@clarablackink @strangeseawolf @crcollins @ElisesWritings Yeah, for example, instead of #Drama, there are specific hashtags like #amWritingDrama. This should work for each genre and sub-genre 🤔

Is there a chance that he gets an answer to his question?

About #ArkanCotton:

Arkan Cotton is a short story about a terrible author with the same name, being an even more terrible human being, who's persuaded himself to be the greatest person in the world and treats everyone like sh*t—especially his ex wife who's the target of a lot of #misogyny.

About #ExGayHusband:
This is a story, I initially wrote in German, but started to translate into English and posted the first chapters on #GayAuthors.org. It's based on a true ((queer) love) story. I usually write fictional stories so this sounds a little different from my other stories.
