Cosmos Summary
Just by knowing and choosing one aspect of our
world’s creation beliefs opens up the core of setting as it can develop and
clarify conflict. It strikes right at
the heart of culture and coinage, history and heresy.
Extended Writing Exercise
Using a style such as originally told in the
traditional form of an anonymous storyteller; write up a paragraph that
reflects a time that portrays the quality of your cosmos.
Then narrow that essence as an opening sentence
hook.
For example, Dickens famous opening line for A Tale of Two Cities, “It was the best
of times, it was the worst of times.”
Or: Many circles passed since our people lost
their way.
