In this video I discuss what happens after the fall of your world as it enters into a post-apocalyptic stage. Keep in mind, this is just my view and your world will differ significantly depending on your apocalyptic event and whether there are any lingering threats (like zombies).
Creating a post-apocalyptic civilisation (or recovering civilisation) isn't a simple task either way so the points are fairly general but I hope this video helps you consider certain aspects of your post-apoc world building to help develop it.

![How to name fictional places [updated]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/x9H6xyyJRLk/mqdefault.jpg "How to name fictional places [updated]
I discuss how to name fictional places, alongside tips on how to world build! Its been a while since Ive visited the topic and added in a few more examples, alongside discussing how to go about naming regions (thanks to those who commented on the last one!).
My own world building focuses on my post-apocalyptic series, so the examples I provide are mainly from my own world.

I discuss how to outline a novel series with Scapple, software that allows me to clearly direct, plan and create! Thought Id highlight it in case others hadnt heard of the scapple software (its from the same folks who make Scrivener).
