I like writing fantasy, but I've never finished a book despite all my ideas. I'm currently working on one for which I'm creating a world that I can best describe as Tolkien-ish or C.S. Lewis-ish. I plan to make a series of some sort, but I've got to get the first one done. I just started a longer short story as well, but it was more out of leisure. I don't see it getting done any time soon.
I could spend all my time working on background information, how magic works, what does an orc do in his spare time...etc.
But I work on the book, and only work on what the book needs at that time. I keep all my background work, so I can use it again for other works. Maybe work on background when you have writers block. But like I have said to others, don't let the work of writing ruin the fun of writing.

Get a website at "Weebly" or "Word Press". I have a site that I had to pay a couple hundred dollars for but the cost per month is only $4.50! (You can even start for FREE!)
You don't need a publisher to get started. If you have a website you can take a word document and convert it to a PDF using "The Cute PDF Writer" (Google for FREE download) and then sell this from your site through PayPal as an "e-book".

Take a look at my site and remember it is only costing me $4.50 a month! I can put anything I want on it!
Can this be done at any websight, or just specifically this one? I currently have 2 other websights, one for my family, and one for my SCA persona.
