Something engaging, something interesting, something stunning... However, I had no idea what exactly I wanted to write. And where should I start?<\/p>\n<p>I remember well the first day of my great writing. While sitting in Lithuanian lessons, I decided to start my story with a bang and wrote the first line of dialogue:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u00a0- Are they coming from the north? - asked Danielius<\/p>\n<p>\u2026And after writing this, I got completely lost. &quot;Who are they?&quot;, I began to ask myself, &quot;Where is the north, where is the narrator now and who is he?&quot;, I added, as if the first question was not enough.<\/p>\n<p>I did not find the answer to those questions. Despite the fact that the language teacher was talking about the works of the cursed Bili\u016bnas in a monotonous voice and it was probably the best environment to write.<\/p>\n<p>Then I took a pencil, opened another page of the notebook. <strong>And I started to draw a map.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sheet by sheet, the map expanded. First I drew the shores of the continent (as I later understood from the scale - it was only a small island, no bigger than Sardinia), then its mountains, rivers and lakes. Then I extended the second continent and suddenly my first world - The World - was born.<\/p>\n<p>(Yes, I wasn&#039;t the most creative young fantasist back then.)<\/p>\n<p>For this first world, I drew and wrote everything from the aforementioned two continents (maps of which I still dream of hanging on my wall) to explanations of planetary days.<\/p>\n<p>...And, after two years of work, I threw away my progress, put it in a box and forgot about it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>You can still find it here:<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/lt.pasaulis.wikia.com\/wiki\/Pagrindinis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&quot;World&quot; encyclopedia online<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, simply click on the link above and you will be taken to the encyclopedia where I presented my worldbuilding work over 5 years ago.<\/p>\n<p>Does this sound interesting to you?<br \/>\nMaybe useful?<\/p>\n<p>Send me a private message on Facebook or otherwise express your thoughts.
