005 - How to World Build With H.B. Lyne
Welcome to episode five of The Rebel Author Podcast, I'm thrilled to host the lovely H.B Lyne today as we talk all about how to world build covering both fantasy and non-fantasy settings. But first...
I mention the two blogs I've been writing recently, both covering audio resources. The first was on the audio resources I've consumed recently and the second was all about how to build a DIY audio booth no matter the amount of space you have.

Next up, I was honoured to be on the Great Writers Share podcast hosted by Dan Willcocks. He has this fantastic interview style where he really goes deep and gets into a person psyche. We cover topics like why sniffing books is a good thing, your motivation as a blogger, overcoming fear and how to absorb and use what you've read long after you've finished reading.

Want Some NaNo Support?
November beckons the month of word-vomit that is NaNoWriMo. For once, I'm actually taking part. But what I find with NaNo is that for all the benefits it creates encouraging word counts, it can also create problems. Problems like comparisonitis especially when you've had a bad day and you see someone else has managed 10,000 words. So I’ve put a blanket ban on discussing word counts in my Facebook group In order to create a more supportive environment. What we’re doing instead is using thumbs up, down or an okay emoji to determine how our day has been. Or thanks to an amazing suggestion from Tom, we’re also using the middle finger emoji for when our characters are being rebellious. If you’d like to join a group where you can be accountable without the pressure of comparisonitis, come join me on Facebook: / 13ste
