Okay tumblr, here’s the deal.

I’m a hoarder. I have diagnosed OCD and this is one of the ways it presents in me. The ADHD does not help matters, and I am one of those people who had their mum picking up after them (until she died, then dad hired college students to clean house and I would work alongside them but somehow it never ingrained cleaning into me) and never really learned to do it myself.

Well I now live alone in an ~790-800 sq ft place with my dog with no one supervising me for three years, a year of a roommate which was stressing in other ways, and then back to being alone for the past 6 months and I told myself I’d get it all under control after RM moved out and boy howdy the place has never been this bad.

I’m gonna take an hour long nap to recharge because I wake up stupid early go work. Then I am going to loop you poor, poor internet people into my shame, because if there’s one thing I know about the internet it is that it is both the most encouraging AND belittling places to be!

I’m going to take a picture of the area I plan on working on for at least half an hour after I wake up. I am going to post it. I am NOT going to take it down until next Tuesday.

If I don’t post an updated picture of the progress by midnight, I give each and every one of you one comment to point it out how you see fit 😁 because this isn’t a horrible idea at all! I’m tired of faceplanting because of random shit but don’t care enough about myself to do something about it. But I DO care about random strangers on the internet and their opinions!

But for now leave me alone I’m so fucking tired. Cheers mates. Feel free to unfollow if you don’t wanna see the mess, it’s not like I’m putting proper OC out on this one anyway.

“Sensitive men are just-“

If that’s about to be negative then HAND HIM OVER. Give him to me NOW. I will take care of him. I will do it for you. No I don’t like you. Yes he deserves better. My hands are open and ready. I will love him. Arms open, let’s go. He gets to walk into them. Goodbye he’s mine now

#I’m a biseuxal polyamorous trans man #I’ll do what you couldn’t and I’ll do it HAPPILY #I’m a demi boy but whatever #hope y’all are chill with me being DID too #yes I’m a mess #yes I will still take care of any and everyone I come across #we exist

It's wbw so tell me what you typically start with when you worldbuild! Do you start with large-scale things and zoom in? Focus on one aspect and slowly spread out? Talk about your process!

Hi!!! This is a fun question purely because it will show 1) how bad I am at worldbuilding 2) how much I don’t like doing it (even though it’s important and I need to do, and always eventually do)

So essentially, when I first go about any kind of wip or project, I usually have either a character that needs a world or a vague story that needs an anything. The latter usually results in a Pinterest board where I save images related to the idea to help get some inspiration as I solidify whatever the idea actually is, and this is the closest I get to “intentional” worldbuilding. By that, I mean going in and genuinely trying to construct some kind of environment/setting for these nebulous themes/vibes, usually with the end goal of having some kind of plot and an idea of what the characters might be to populate that world.

After that, the process melds with the character first process, which is 99% of the time me just crafting plot and character in a mainly white room until I realize I need to figure out a setting/culture/etc thing to help either of those things, and am forced to spend time on it lol. And usually I spend a lot of time procrastinating that part simply because I find it so tedious, and I’m super averse to any kind of formatted planning or note taking for anything I do. My brain doesn’t like it, which is bad because it often means I get stuck during the writing process which means getting bogged down which leads me to procrastinating by writing so I just live in this ouroboros shaped hell lol.

Usually I do figure it out but it’s always in fragments relating to whatever I need to push the story along. Sometimes it’s researching fashion or architecture in various cultures I might take inspiration from, sometimes it’s reading dense texts about government structures that I literally don’t understand at all because I’m incapable of reading above an 8th grade level anymore. I frequently just don’t spend time on or build anything that isn’t going to be mentioned or connected in some way to things that happen on screen, so any world in my stories is like being on a sound stage. It seems convincing until you go around the corner and see it’s just Masonite and a lot of 2x4s.

And like, that works for the most part, it does, but I know it’s not a good way to do things. There are plot holes and inconsistencies, lots of meandering, white room syndrome, no real reader investment in anything going on outside of a character’s head. But the one nice thing about it is that I can very easily chop or change stuff whenever I want. I never suffer from any kind of issue stemming from pieces in my puzzle not fitting correctly because I never even took my puzzle out of the box. If I need to randomly conjure something because it’s convenient, easy, it’s done. If I need to throw something out because it’s not right, gone, done, barely any edits to do because it was probably only mentioned twice anyway. Obviously when something is huge and tied to the characters and is driving the main plot, it gets a little harder, but the loosey goosey style still puts in work. There are methods to circumvent and adjust so I no longer have a problem, usually resulting in some small shifts in how the plot looks.

So yeah pure chaos. It’s less of a method and more of random bouts of scrambling, intense research, and extreme avoidance. Also some car ride epiphanies when I run errands. My world building happens out of necessity rather than out of interest most of the time. The few times it doesn’t, I usually still get bored after a while and focus on the plot and characters anyway. I know I need to work on it, especially considering I’m writing mainly in the fantasy genre, but maaaaaaan I wish I could just write characters in white rooms and be done with it sometimes lmao

But all of that is why I like things like this, where people ask me things about my world and suddenly I am forced to come up with some kind of answer that actually makes sense. It’s very helpful and steers me when I’d otherwise go down a rabbit hole or simply avoid it altogether

#long post #my post #ask reply #WBW #yes I’m a mess #I probably will not get better #idk what it is about world building but I just don’t gel with the process #or even formal plotting #I’m just a guy who likes when ocs interact and have feelings #which is an unfortunate breed of writer to be #because no one wants to read hamlet 2: the book where nothing happens
