The Challenge of Balancing Multiple Worlds
When you work as a creator on more than one project at a time.
As a storyteller, one of the things I take great pride in is my ability to do worldbuilding.
Among my already published works, I’ve created 5 different worlds. In two cases, entirely different galaxies. The rules of my worlds have many similarities, but then they veer in different directions for various reasons.
The fantasy world of The Source Chronicles has its own names for days, weeks, the moons of the world, and a whole magic system. My standalone Infamy Ascending is a blend of fantasy, Steampunk tech, and magic. The Vapor Rogues is a Steampunk world with magic. My Void Incursion series takes place in a unique galaxy different from ours, while Forgotten Fodder is set 550 years into the future and features colony worlds on exoplanets believed to exist within 20–30 light-years of Earth.
On top of these basics, the magic systems in my fantasy worlds each have unique properties. Likewise, the workings of faster-than-light travel, functions of the starships, language, and currency vary between my sci-fi series.
The biggest challenge tends to come from working on multiple projects at a time.
