Building Your World In A Fantasy Series.

Picture
Today's Guest Blogger is the Michigan-based writer and artist, C.A. Michaels
Writing since 2010, she writes all genres except horror and focuses primarily on epic fantasy.
She is currently writing two series, one focusing on the Demon-Vampire Hunter (and axe tossing champion) Samantha Marie Peterson and the Pathfinders series The Elysian Gods.

​C.A. Michaels' Writing Tips
First, there is always room for improvement and to read. Reading will help improve yourself.

On the topic of world-building, she says "I usually start with one world and the character. Even if Earth is involved. But I do like all that to be evolved over a series." When choosing names for her characters, she says the names "just come to me". In her fantasy, she has some easy names to say, like Seth and Karri, then there are some like Jutari.
