If I'd been whoring before class and waved a corset at him, no one would have thought twice about it!

In brief, worldbuilding is different than setting in my opinion. Setting is a room. A backdrop. It's scenery. But without good worldbuilding, you can't have realistic feeling scenery. You can't have cool, unique backdrops for your story.

You have to be a bit of a liar to tell a story the right way.

But how awful would that be? How terrible to live surrounded by the stark, sharp, hollowness of things that simply were enough?

I'm not a big fan of overt marketing. I'd much rather just put things out there for people to see. I'm just putting it out there for people to see. If people think this is cool, I'm hoping they'll tell their friends.

I'm not implying that fantasy is for kids. I'm saying that more and more people are finally realizing that there's more to fantasy stories than elves and wizards and goblin armies.

I loved college. I wish I was still taking classes instead of teaching them.
