A to Z: Quickly



The A to Z Challenge is underway this year, thanks to the awesome hosts and minions. Special thanks to Arlee Bird for starting this amazing blogging challenge!!! For more information about this challenge, go to the website!

Primary theme: World of Aramatir (Setting for The Champion Trilogy) Glossary
Secondary Theme: World-Building Questions and Thoughts

Q

Quenten – a Rrysorrian sent to spy on Lord Uorsin and Shepherd Bujeni – ambassadors from Rrysorria to the Allied Council

Quim – Perren Hawksmith’s nephew and apprentice
 
 
World Building Thought/Question: How quickly do you pace world building information within your plot? Do you spend paragraphs to pages describing the world and the people within it, or do you just drop hints along the way? Or do you fall somewhere in between those two methods?
 
As a reader, I'm a fan of hints of information with a few small paragraph chunks of world building within the action of the plot. So, as a writer, I've tried to do the same. Despite the clunkiness of this glossary, I don't download all this information on the reader in page-length descriptions. Just a little hint is given as my characters run about their business. :)
