Expiration date
This blog was supposed to have one, but it passed a long time ago and I'm still here.
No wonder this whole thing smells a little fishy.
Today's dilemma: Too many worlds! One of my hobbies is inventing imaginary places, and I have recently found myself in the company of fellow world-inventors, most of whom seem to have a single pet project with which they hope to their fortunes as storytellers.
I'm not like that.
I have...let's see:
4 Dungeons and Dragons worlds: Uqbar, Noarth, (one without a name I like,) and Global Ravenloft.
3 different future Earths, plus 1 contemporary alternate Earth
1 inspired by George R.R. Martin
1 which is a science-fiction spinoff of Uqbar (above)
That's ten worlds. I can't write ten novels at once, that's ridiculous. (I can't write one, I don't have time.)
I don't suppose many of my readers have the same complaint, but if you do, how did you resolve your multi-world difficulties?

I mean this globe.
You have correctly deduced that I (as one of your readers) have no other- (much less multi-) worldly difficulties, therefore I cannot advise you. If you were to ask about alternate universes, now . . .
Tell me about your alternate universes, my fruitful friend.
Lots of worlds. . .
But not exactly as you have described.
