As both an editor and author, I plan on returning to Fiction Tinker’s Guide to Whimsical Worlds over and over again. It has such a fantastic variety of topics and examples one might need to create a well-developed world, whether it’s Earth as we know it or an entirely new, magical land. I’m already looking forward to using it for my next series!

Tod has helped me take good writing and make it better. Always a joy to work with, and an influence in helping me hold my writing to a higher standard from the get-go. I highly recommend TNT Editing.

I loved the recent developmental session I had with Tod for a story I’m trying to get published. I struggle so hard when it comes to narrowing down plot while keeping world and character building intact. Tod was genius in not just talking through my story with me and helping me nail down specific plot points but also identifying elements that could be added for a richer story. I would highly recommend one of these sessions (and Tod!) to any writer looking to strengthen their story. I’ll definitely be back again and again!

Theodore Niretac Tinker has created a handy gem with Fiction Tinker’s Guide to Whimsical Worlds. From love to nature to language in an author’s world, he tackles it all. In this easy-to-digest guide, Tod takes authors on a journey and offers thought-provoking questions and sage recommendations to consider as they craft and refine their own worlds.

I had a zoom meeting with Tod the other day. Had no idea what to expect. Tod made me feel completely at ease. We delved into character development, and he gave me ideas on how to keep everything in order. How to keep with my timeline and cut out mundane parts. Not once did I feel like I shouldn’t even be writing or what am I thinking calling myself an author? He was very encouraging and even gave me ideas for a series! I walked away with the desire to immediately tackle my story and renewed and refreshed perspective to do it! Thank you so much, Tod!
