I'm very passionate about writing but a large part of that comes from worldbuilding. I'm a daydreamer, a serial escapist, and an adventurer at heart. I love fantasy because it lets me get away from the real world for a while. I may be boring but my worlds sure aren't.
I've been worldbuilding for as long as I can remember. I have dozens of fully thought-out worlds and hundreds half-baked ones. I even wrote a speech about it (and won a contest for it) :P
Some worlds started as story concepts, others as DnD settings, but majority were because I love mapmaking and I'm constantly doodling landmasses and maps of no where in particular until I give it a name. Mapmaking is like 50% of why I love worldbuilding.
