(Blog-esque thoughts continued.)
When I first started writing E-Lunar, I wanted to blend the atmospheres of modern life with fantastical magic. One of the things that really sticks out to me in stories, I'd say, is the setting and atmosphere. Does the story take place in a fantastical kingdom or a modern city? Those two things always intrigued me. And I'd say I'm not the only one who finds those things pretty neat. This generation, as of the seventh of February in 2017 -- and to what I've observed -- seems pretty enchanted by either ancient fantasies or science-fiction. I'm definitely caught in the tug-and-pull of those two settings with almost whatever I write, as well. Much of what I write, I'd say, is ultimately fantasy and is specifically a product of whichever of those two settings ends up winning out. It can be a really interesting dichotomy! Perhaps, you could also make the case it's a great exercise in escapism. I don't find it interesting to write a totally non-fantastical story. Even if it's about this present time, I want to make some sort of dystopic commentary on a kind of way that the society in my story lives and how it's weird, or really great and how it can juxtapose our society.
