Socialist Worldbuilding - Lemmygrad
lemmygrad.ml
Worldbuilding is the process in fiction writing where one develops the setting, background details, in-universe history, lore, basically anything establishes and/or describes the universe in which a fictional story takes place is worldbuilding. Either done in order to create a more compelling and internally consistent plot or just for fun! This is an explicitly socialist/Marxist space, but the fictional worlds you post does not have to specifically be socialist or leftist worlds, any is fine as long as it follows the broader Lemmygrad rules. Likewise with any genre or medium that your world is portrayed as. Any type of post relating to worldbuilding is welcome here, including sharing lore that you’ve developed or generally talking about your world, questions, discussion and advice, writing prompts, etc.

There’s been a ton of talk on Lemmygrad (and in this community in particular) in the recent months about having better spaces for socialist/communist fiction writers, and after holding off for a long time I decided to finally make a worldbuilding community on here! It’s something I really love doing and I’m a socialist, so I hope I can help make it a nice place for socialist worldbuilders and writers in general. Doesn’t have to be explicitly socialist or leftist worlds, it’s more a community for socialists as opposed to specifically socialist writing.

I will be transferring my existing lore posts from Reddit onto there in a bit, after I edit them as most of them are from years ago and my worlds have changed. I’d love to see what all my comrades have created as well!

Funny, this is actually why I created an account on Lemmygrad in the first place. You probably know me by my Lemmy.ml account since that’s what I normally use to participate on here, but I feel that if I’m to moderate a community it should be done from an in-instance account. That and in case Lemmygrad decides to defederate with Lemmy.ml.

    Hopefully I can be the catalyst to get you creating again!
