I think 100 percent of every post should be world-building. Readers aren't interested in characters or plots or any kind of "feeling" BS. They just want new worlds and that's it. I don't remember any characters or plots from the hundreds of books I've read but I definitely remember every detail about worlds I never knew existed before the authors laid them out for me. The secret is that no one really wants to read stories. They just want a new world to inhabit. I'm signing up for your course right now and I hope you've laid out my new fantasy life in there for next week when I'm banking seven figures an hour (results may and will vary...a lot).
Debating which to buy first, your course or a thesaurus...

I want to see and do more “how to build an audience” posts. Parodies and madlibs are too fun:
