Be Fabulous Friday<\/h2>\n

This week’s quote comes from the inimitable Victor Hugo, author of such classics as\u00a0Les Mis\u00e9rables<\/span><\/i> and<\/span> The Hunchback of Notre Dame<\/span><\/i>:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Victor<\/a><\/p>\n

Never forget how essential world-building is your script, and to your characters. After all, they will impact, as will the narrative, by the world they live in. Be it a faraway planet, a mystical world beyond our comprehension, or a city down here on earth from any period in history, it is up to you to craft the world of the novel, screenplay, whatever. Another useful quote from\u00a0Writer’s Digest\u00a0<\/em>(You can read\u00a0the\u00a0full article HERE<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Whether your tale is set in a real place or an imagined one, you need to establish your characters\u2019 world so that the reader can suspend disbelief and fully engage with the story.Of course, the more differences to our own world you introduce, the more you need to focus on getting those details absolutely right \u2013 but you need to do it in such a way that they almost fade into the background.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
