009 World Building Archery/Writing Two Chapters At Once
Vito and John discuss different types of bows and where/when they might be appropriate to use in your story. For example, is it realistic to use composite bows in a humid, rainy environment? Who could realistically use a bow powerful enough to do that much damage? It might not be the typer of person you're thinking. We can't all be naturally super strong like Legolas in Lord of the Rings; real people have to train long and hard in order to handle the heavy draw weight of powerful bows. What might be better ranged weapon options for weaker characters? The boys then talk about jumping around from chapter to chapter in your writing, perhaps to keep momentum going when you hit a rough spot in a certain chapter.
