Conworlding and making up worlds - Writer_Mythanian - 05-16-2007 06:00 PM Yes, I know these are the same things, I just put them together for people who don't know the term "Conworlding." I was just wondering if anyone else has an interest in creating fantasy worlds and if you plan on doing anything with them. I'd put up some information on mine, but I don't have the details all worked out yet. I'll do it soon though.

RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - Ando - 05-16-2007 07:00 PM I've made up imaginary places before, yes. RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - nyanchan - 05-17-2007 07:52 AM I've been creating imaginary worlds for as long as I can remember. ![]() Sometimes I just do the world, sometimes I make stories about it. RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - Waldo - 05-18-2007 08:00 PM I thought up a world this morning. 2 months ago, I made an alien world and I daydreamt about the characters in it but I stopped it last week. Last week, I made up a world that has a mental institution in antarctica. I'd love to live in a world without trees, animals and the sun so that I would never have to go outside into the world. RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - hrick - 05-19-2007 01:02 AM Just a word of support here. If this is something you love, don't hesitate to try to do something productive with it. Tolkien, Rowlings... how great is that stuff! Their imaginations. I am truly envious. We have a friend whose passion was the Wizard of Oz. He ended up writing several books on collectibles having to do with the Wizard of Oz. What better, than to do something productive with your passion. Go for it! RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - Sequoyah - 05-20-2007 01:21 AM Unfortunately I never have the time and the will power to make an imaginary world in much detail, but I'm always playing with some basic idea in my thoughts (eg. aquatic aliens that metamorphose into a terrestrial form but think that metamorphosis is death). I've always liked books that had a lot of wordbuilding much better than other books. The Silmarillion is the best!! RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - VenganceOfSneasel - 05-20-2007 08:44 AM I live to make fantasy worlds! That and correcting other people... RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - nyanchan - 05-20-2007 09:08 AM I also like to do the cultures of people and various things like that. The main one I'm doing right now has stories and culture and language and a pantheon (centred around the daughter of a volcano) and all kinds of other stuff -- it's totally unrelated to "our" world, although similar, but I like to imagine that in some kind of quasi-reality or parallel universe, the places we imagine might really exist in the way that we imagine them. RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - Emmy - 11-10-2007 10:40 PM I often make up new words because I sometimes cant find the the right words,so I put words together instead. RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - LoftyD - 11-19-2007 12:22 AM I like to conlang too, but not often...

RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - A True Monotheist - 03-28-2008 03:53 AM PS. I guess this gives a whole new meaning to "con" worlding! All the best. RE: Conworlding and making up worlds - earthmonkey - 03-28-2008 05:58 AM I do this a lot! I even got to take a class called Imaginary Lands.
