World-Building, Part 4: Climate, Seasons, Etc.
Climate plays a big part in world-building. Things like weather, seasons, day/night can also shape your world or individual scenes. Your characters are going to be feeling and experiencing and seeing different things depending on all of this. If it's a sweltering summer, what you write is going to be very different than if it's an icy winter. What your characters might see in the light of day could be different than what they notice creeping around in the darkness. A desert will obviously have different obstacles than a jungle.
All of this can add tension to your story. It can cause predicaments for your characters or it can aid them.

I try my hardest to have the setting directly affect my story! Just another aspect to be aware of during revisions!
ReplyDeleteWhat a busy girl you are! Weather can be very important, even the antagonist.
ReplyDeleteClimate does play a part in my stories. I don't use it a lot though, maybe I should. :)

ReplyDeleteWeather up to now hasn't played a huge role other than I know what season it is and include those details. Setting has played a bigger role than weather.
