Science Fiction Setting Descriptions

You will create a setting for a Science Fiction story you will write.

Part I: You need to envision a setting in one of the following Science Fiction subgenres:

Other Planets
Parallel Worlds
Apocalyptic/Post-Apocalyptic
Dystopia
Techno-future
Space

First choose a specific location.  The location should be the primary location for your story.  Then choose a timeframe for your story.

Describe the environment of the setting in thorough detail.  If you were to travel through this environment, describe what you would see.  In describing the environment, include description of some of the following things:

inhabitants
vegetation
animal life
buildings and structures
cities
landscape
technology

Use colorful vocabulary in your descriptions.  "Paint a picture" for your reader.

Setting descriptions should be about a page.

Part II: You need to provide a backstory for how your setting got to the point you described above.  You are in essence writing a history for your world.  You will need to create events for your backstory.
