“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” — Jawaharlal
This is an amazing quote to keep in mind while building the world of any romance novel, but particularly a world of paranormal romance.
As paranormal romance writers, we can ‘live’ in a world full of beauty and charm or danger and shadows, but always full of adventure! And the best part is, we can create it ourselves.
We can mold the world for our characters to give the best story to our readers. World building is really a vibrant way to bring out the universal truth about the story paranormal romance writers (or other authors) want to tell.
Jawaharlal’s quote is particularly important for writers who are world building for a paranormal romance novel series. It’s a potent reminder that the adventures can be unlimited in a particular setting, or with a particular group of characters.
We just have to keep our eyes and hearts open to the stories within that want to be told.
Sometimes that’s the real challenge, letting the story unfold within the world we’ve built for our paranormal romance. But if you’ve put in the time to create it, be sure you let your characters – and yourself – enjoy it!
Live the adventure!
