 #WordWeavers: Character, worldbuilding-

I can break down my books into these elements, but I never think this way when writing. To me, these are all intertwined & can’t be separated. If I was in a different life plot, or a vastly different culture (worldbuilding) I would likely be different. I focus on my characters, asking them constantly about their world, so it’s all filtered, I suppose, through characters, but I learn their character through these conversations. So, it’s chicken or egg.
