A brief talk on how I approached my world building. There is no wrong or right way for it, but I prefer to try and build my world up first, and then create my characters for it.

I finally complete my first draft of Disarray with the help of writing sprints and having the camera switched on to focus. It was the goal I set out to achieve at first by June, with the extended date of July, so Im happy to have finally gotten to finishing my novel! Next step: Edit it to pieces while keeping up these writing vlogs and sprints for authortube.
Apologies for the light change, the sun decided to disappear for a bit!

In this video I discuss some elements of a novel for when writing for post-apocalyptic books. Thinking about your common cause can help you plan and shape your world, with the aim of developing realistic fiction. Of course, this all takes time, but I believe is a necessary part of the process when writing in the post-apocalyptic genre! Again, this is only my opinion and advice, so take it all with a pinch of salt - I just hope it helps with your creavite process when making and shaping your characters, book and world.
