I'm a 21 yr old female college student, currently studying astronomy-physics. I also enjoy writing, and I love dogs. I don't know what I'm doing with my life, but I have experienced a lot of life.

I know this isn't exactly the right column, but this suits this one more than any of the others... but, some places online there are sites where there are lists of questions designed specifically to help authors make profiles for characters (age, gender, hair color, personality, etc.) and i was just wondering, if they have the same thing for your whole novel in general. Like lists of questions about the setting, characters, plot, etc.
like, "What is the name of your story?",
"What is the name of the World/continents/cities?",
"What kind of animals and plants live on this planet and do they differ from those of Earth? And if so, in what way?", etc.
Is there anywhere online i can find something like this? Because my plot keeps changing, I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my story. Oh, and if this helps its a fantasy.
Also, to go with the story, I am making a myth/legend to go with it. This myth/legend is based on the storyline. Any help or advice on making a great myth/legend would be helpful as well.
I would appreciate any help. Thank you very much to whoever try or do help. (link)

To make an original story, avoid these web sites. I never use them. If you want an original world, it's better to make it up yourself. There is no right or wrong in fiction. As for your plot changing, this isn't a bad thing. It's just your story getting a life of it's own outside your influence. Let the plot change and go with the flow. Novels and stories develop over time. Authors don't decide the whole thing all at once. I would just keep writing and see what happens.

I wasn't asking for anyone to make my world for me. I just need questions so i can answer them so i can get a bigger and brighter idea of what my world would be like, like me being there myself, and create a realistic world. Like its own species for example. I cant explain it... like a profile for my world, instead of the characters.
dont know whether or not you understand...its kind of complicated.
