Shards Worldbuilding Zine

Description

*Please note there are six variants of issue one, you are purchasing one randomly chosen variant*

Shards is a 44 page – World-Building Zine – rather than being designed around a specific setting or system it provides tools for the creation and expansion of your own science fiction and fantasy worlds.

We’re the sort of people who buy setting books purely to read through and use whatever bits we like for our own setting. Shards aims to streamline that process for you, giving you the sort of things that you’d pull out of these big pieces in a form that’s easier to simply slot in to your world.

Each issue contains:

– Three Setting Shards: pieces of setting that can easily slip into whatever world you’re using (including notes on how to do so for specific settings or how to adapt to other genres where relevant)
– An article dealing with certain tips or tricks for building your own world
– The Magpie’s Nest, talking about how to steal concepts from reality and/or mythology and repurpose them for your own world
– A segment where our resident Agony Aunt – the Letter Lich – answers some more specific world-building problems.
