@TheMontess The spiced tea and vegetarian kebab roll sound absolutely delicious!

[Abigail W. @TheMontess]

#WIPWorldBuilders - A5: My favourite Callor street has lots of food vendors, so you can smell vats of hot, spiced tea and hear street snacks sizzling in oil. I'd recommend tasting the vegetarian kebab roll (with hot sauce) but mind your fingers! Those fries are fresh 🌯

[Abigail W. @TheMontess]

#WIPWorldBuilders - A4: I'd say there's more public than private space on Callor Station. Plenty of squares, plus hydroponic parks and open waterways which form part of the environmental systems. One bougie neighbourhood has plants in *actual* soil 🌱

[Abigail W. @TheMontess]

#WIPWorldBuilders - A3: Callor is maintained by the Engineers' Guild, a pan-system body with its base on Elastor, although the station itself is mortgaged on a 50 year private finance loan. It has everything you'd expect of a city, along with power generation, sanitation etc.

@SifaPoulton Woohoo! I'm excited about the author interviews!

[Sifa Elizabeth Poulton @SifaPoulton]

#WIPWOrldBuilders I'm an SFF book blogger (MG, YA, and Adult) but I also read fiction and non-fiction history, and thrillers! I've got some exciting author interviews coming up in the next few months too

@SifaPoulton Love this excerpt much! The details are fantastic!

[Sifa Elizabeth Poulton @SifaPoulton]

#WIPWorldBuilders Have a trimmed down snippet from the first chapter about a university town (The original section is 320 words, hence the [English equivalents for ease instead of the Old English] and ... to remove all but the sensory details!)

[WIPWorldBuilders is back!!! @WIP_WB]

@TheMontess Love a city whose design reflects its long history

[Abigail W. @TheMontess]

#WIPWorldBuilders - A2: Callor Station was built up as it was carved out, so it's a bit convoluted especially in the older neighbourhoods. Newer sections have wider/straighter roads, and most are named after their benefactor (Annette grew up in Stephenson Wharf)

@stevencworlds ooo love the fountain with the giant crystal

[Sifa Elizabeth Poulton @SifaPoulton]

#WIPWorldBuilders There are a lot of parks seen in the book!

There are the large public parks (think: London's Royal Parks), smaller local parks, "private square gardens" shared by the townhouses around, and then there are the large "pay for entry" parks

[Sifa Elizabeth Poulton @SifaPoulton]

#WIPWOrldBuilders Water, sanitation, power, telegraphs and telephones, an underground train network, buses, trams, above ground trains, postal services

It's supported by a mix of local and national taxes

@stevencworlds oooo I love the idea of using magic to get rid of waste.

[WIPWorldBuilders is back!!! @WIP_WB]

@SifaPoulton Got to love city design that relies on sheer stupidity.
