So, tell me, what things are you looking for your story and/or even things related to worldbuilding? If you do not world-build heavily or at all then just add story or a little bit of what you’ve found.
List down any links to the website. List down any books that you are reading for research.
Or you can just say what you are researching and why.
Imo, plants are way easier to understand. Sure, they’re freaks because you can cut them up and they’ll always come back, and you can stick parts of plants together and they’ll just keep growing, but like…? The U.S. stock market is run almost entirely on speculation and hypotheticals, which is one of the reason there’s a stock market crash about every 7 years: it gets overinflated, everyone realizes it’s overinflated so they start selling, the market crashes, and the speculation begins again.
That being said, if plants don’t come naturally to you, then they don’t come naturally to you. My grandpa was a botanist, so he used to take me around and show me what he was doing. Growing up in a rural area, that really helped.
I’m full of random knowledge so I can wing it for most things.
Like for my HLaE story, I know that Egyptian Pharaos ethnicity depends on the dynasty. It’s pretty likely that the oldest ones, especially before a unified Egypt have more west-central African DNA, but as it’s always been a trade route thing, some wives marrying in could be from Babylon or Hittites over time. By Ptolemy, it’s Greek Pharaohs, mostly west European conquerors.
So an amnesiac of an Egyptian Pharaoh won’t know his background but would be aware of his possible ancestry.
Well, that means I need to know stuff, so I look at why mummies are so dark and their hair so pale, no matter their ethnicity? It’s the tar and the aging.
