User blog comment:SpaceWeather/Writer's Workshop: Setting/@comment-5424252-20161217151321

Love this one :) Setting is something that is incredibly important but often misued or fogotten.

I'm (glad to see you back) super exited that you've written about this topic! This is a lovely workshop that I think everyone should read. You mention a lot of really fun and important aspects about the setting that are easily missed. Your reference to the Artic from TDWT is a great example. Having the contestants ~freeze~ or other antics that can only really happen in that setting is something I think most people forget. While a number of users take care and create wonderful settings they usually forget to maximize the potential. This is a great reminder on how to do just that.

I think my favourite part of this WW is the other points section. It contains a lot of things that should be remembered, yet somehow I've magically forgotten about. Weather for example, something so subtle and everyday is easily missed in a story and a great way to foreshadow, or change up your everyday scenery for a chapter or two. As for continuity all I can say is preach.

I wish I could comment more but I'm in a tad bit of a hurry, when I get homehopefully I'll find you on chat.

This is a great addition to the workshops on the wiki! Thank you so much for writing it!~

Side note: Don't forget two of the other writer's workshops:
