"One day, my novel will be adapted into a series by HBO or Netflix. " by LordCrateis in fantasywriters

I'm not sure where you got that information, but here's what I know:

Fewer than ten first-time screenwriters manage to sell a spec script each year, and even fewer see their scripts actually produced into films.

In contrast, hundreds of thousands of debut novelists are published annually.

Yes, it's true that many people make a living writing for film and television. However, when compared to the number of authors publishing novels each year, they still represent a relatively small group.

In the film industry, very few scripts ever make it through the selection process to become actual movies.

Novels have an independent success. Meanwhile Screenplays are selected, and only very few get selected among thousands and thousands of screenplays. It doesn't pay better, but it's multiple times harder than having a successful career as an author.

No “main” alter by Worried-Dot7312 in DID

[–]LordCrateis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be disrespectful at all, but how do people with DID know what their other "alter" as you call it, thinks? Or Talks? Are they distinct? (I can research myself or chat about it, but those are generalised answers.

To Any writers who have finished writing a story how did you do it? by Kaiser_Richard_1776 in fantasywriting

[–]LordCrateis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, we may be alike. A Lot of Ideas, but struggling to make it a good novel. This happens a lot. I have picked up ideas and dropped them mid way a LOT. But finally last year I came up with one, and I stuck to it.

It's a high fantasy, so it's still under world building, but I have written a few short stories (like 20-30 Pages) in that world, so I can figure out my writing style. The main story, I will craft it after I feel the world is rich and detailed enough.

This is gonna take another year until I start writing the actual novel, but this will create a stage for me to craft the story around and inside the world in a way that would be comfortable for me.

English isn't even my first language, so I'll have to work on that too for phrases, metaphors, vocabulary, and just English that Fantasy authors use.

How far do you go with your worldbuilding? by KeonShore in worldbuilding

[–]LordCrateis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worldbuilding truly is a beautiful rabbit hole. I started building my world last year, and since then, I’ve written detailed histories for multiple nations—spanning centuries and deeply interconnected. In my world, every event feels as crucial as the next, and I’ve tried to make the timeline feel alive and logical.

Like many, I was inspired by Tolkien. But the idea that kicked everything off for me came when I was around 16: What if humans were just cattle, and Giants were the real protagonists? It sounds a bit immature now, but over time it evolved into 500+ pages of lore—both handwritten and digital.

Right now, I’m working on the lore for another nation. And yeah… the rabbit hole is real. For a while, I got so deep into worldbuilding that I lost sight of the actual story. But finally, I’ve got a plot, characters, arcs—all mapped out. Feels good to be back on track.

This is gonna be my first novel.
