Title: Newbie
Post by: Yodra on December 09, 2015, 01:54:47 PM
Hello,

I am new to both the CBG and roleplaying in general, but I have a fictional world that I would like to share and explore with others. I kind of don't know where to start, so that's why I'm posting this here. I have some experience world building but my latest project is considerably more ambitious than anything else I've tried, and I have very little roleplaying experience. I would really appreciate it if some more experienced creators could point me in the right direction. :)

Welcome. The first thing you should probably do is tell us a little about yourself in this (http://www.thecbg.org/index.php/topic,4.0.html) thread. After that, hop into either the Homebrews or Campaign Elements and Design subforums and start putting down what you've got. Homebrews is ideal if you're looking to post a thread covering a setting as a whole, while Campaign Elements and Design is better for Q&A/discussion/debate on particular aspects of your approach and ideas.

Cheers!

Welcome!

If you're not sure where to start, just... start! Find a thread that interests you and post. Don't be shy; we won't bite, much. You don't necessarily have to lead off with a big long post about your own creation, indeed, sometimes that isn't the best way because it's a bit out of the blue.

Welcome! Also, listen to the cosmo-equine and shimmering-distortion. They speak wisdom.

I second this. You don't have to have everything figured out - just post. But also be sure to share the love; posting only about your own stuff warrants the condemnation of the all-seeing sparkletwist.
