One Piece 1130 Manga Recap: 'The Accursed Prince'

One of the hardest things about writing a fantasy novel (or any novel) is starting. Where do you even begin? And how do you know if you're even ready?

Today on Fantasy Writing for Barbarians, I talk all about overcoming those creative blocks that can mess up our writing process. Especially if you're just trying to get started. I take a look at an advice prompt from an aspiring writer who feels like they've done all the prep work they can, but now when it comes to sitting down and doing the thing, they can't quite find the words. If that sounds like something you've gone through either currently or in the past, then this advice is for you, too.

How to unlock your fantasy writing potential

If you're writing a fantasy romance — or maybe just a fantasy with some romance — then at some point you're probably going to wonder if your love interest is compelling enough. Readers typically bemoan one-dimensional love interests who don't really have their own character arcs. When they're just props in the story or merely an extension of the main character instead of their own character.

So in this episode of Fantasy Writing for Barbarians, I discuss ways you can create "round" love interests who make readers swoon as much as the main character. I take a look at a specific prompt from a fantasy writer and provide direct feedback on their question. While also offering some examples from popular TV shows and books to help illustrate the contrast between a well-written romance and a weak one.

How to write love interests who aren't one-dimensional

Most fantasy stories benefit from a great map. But is it really ok to draw upon real-world geography as inspiration? Well, yeah! There are certainly some do's and don'ts when it comes to mirroring real locations, but it usually comes down to when and how you start thinking about your setting as a living, breathing, world. Not just an abstract idea.

So today on Fantasy Writing for Barbarians, I talk all about maps for your fantasy setting and how they can actually make your narrative even more unique and original. I take a look at some examples from popular fantasy novels as well, so all you aspiring authors can find practical ways to make your map more convincing and true to you.
