Really, I think the fundamentals of world-building can be applied to any kind of fiction; they're just easier to pick out in fantasy. Happy writing! Thanks, Kathy!

Thanks for the thoughtful comment on the post. I'm glad it inspired you to try a bit of world-building of your own! Thanks, Andrea! I think you're right that pretty much all of the ideas can be applied to any type of writing, not just fantasy. You’re welcome, Jon! Thanks for the thoughtful comment on the post.

I love the concept of a story being the blend of character and place. This makes the story more powerful, I think. And, of course, this could be utilized in non-fantasy books, as well.
