@juliecotewriter - The length of the year could be the same give or take say 10 to 30 days. It would still fall into the correct time line of what we consider a year to be. The trick is getting the time of day correct. Ours is 24 hrs is a day and roughly 8 to 10 hrs of that is daylight. If their day is longer or shorter, that would also play into what we know as a week then to a month and finally a year.
Now I know why you have left it as it is! It’s actually mind boggling! I mean you could simply use what we use and change all the names but to create a full true fantasy time line would take a lot of time, planning and thinking. There really is a lot that would still factor into it all like the moon and how many do they have and so on.
Me going out on the limb looking, I found a planet generator that actually factors all that stuff. It’s actually for world building. Gives a planet name and all kinda of neat stuff. Although, I’m sure you’ve already seen it.
On another note, it looks like you have redone parts of the Guide book where the time line is. It looks good and I like it! Especially where it shows what book takes place in the timeline and how it brings it all together! Yep, I now understand how you have that many years wrapped up in this world. It’s most definitely paid off!
There’s another series I’ve read that are 5 books. It crosses a span of 10 years from the day they met to in the last book it’s exactly 10 years to the day of their marriage. It’s all earth based and same time line, etc. as ours though. Kinda cool how he lined it up from day 1 meet to 10 years later married on the same day they met to end the series.
Time to rest the brain from thinking of timelines and etc. as I think I’m getting a brain cramp from it all…lol! I love these little chats! ☺️
