Storm's Crispin Creates New World

Storm's Crispin Creates New World.

A couple of points I enjoyed from the article:

Working in someone else's universe allows a writer to skip character descriptions, because readers already know how a character sounds and looks, but the writer must take care to keep the continuity of the universe going.

With one's own universe, "You must describe everything, because readers have no mental pictures of characters or settings," ....


And

Crispin said she created Boq'urain in much the same fashion as her Star Bridge universe, which was a seven-book series often co-written with another author, published between 1989-'98. She writes extensively about the world's geography, culture, language and history, most of which never appears in the book and is used only for her reference.
