@killerwot - the Scribe I most steal motivation from π I love that so many of the stories are episodes set in an internally consistent universe, it builds so much additional depth once you realise that all these different people's tales are happening in the same galaxy, often at around the same time. Keep up the good work !

Thanks so much, I really appreciate that!
I love that, too. To be honest, I think that each story building upon an established world is fairly good because it just allows the mind to wander deeper into it for the next story.
Creating a timeline is something I'm working on, too, so I can kind of have a rough idea of what has happened and what hasn't. Also, the settings can change a bit here and there between stories, which could add nice bits of detail. A building under construction for one character could be a long-standing staple of another's life.
It's like when talking to people or family about the town, hearing what areas used to be like, and comparing that to what those places were to me growing up.
My mum always says about how she could see a lake from our road and it was nothing but fields and meadows when we first moved in, but as I was growing up we played in construction sites which were then housing estates within just a couple of years.
