I've been listening to the Shakespeare and Dragons Worldbuilding 101 Podcast (thanks, Emmet!) and it has inspired me to buy a couple of books: Story and Guns, Germs, and Steel. The former I have in hand, bought from a convenient Barnes& Nobles while the latter is on its way from Amazon.
Of the podcast, I've listened to five of the episodes so far and I like the discussion of the particulars of world-building. As I've recently come down with the world-building bug myself (which I will detail in all its grueling minutia soon enough), it's been a serendipitous find.
Of Story, it looks good and will fit in well with some of my other writing-related books. I hope to tuck into it tonight.
