Can you provide any advice to making a muse list for a beginner? Like, what;'s the best ways to make one and all that? I've seen people use google docs, but would that be a good thing to use? I hope this makes sense,
of course !! i've made many muse bios / muse lists, so I can share with you what I do, what I use, and what I've seen.
the very first thing that I do when I'm wanting to make a muse list / muse bio is I look for a template to use as an outline for my muse(s). usually, I just go to google and I type in "basic character sheet" and you'll get tons of options that you can pick from. even the ones labeled as "basic" are pretty detailed and I usually only use certain parts of the template.
( an example of a character sheet is usually:
name: age: birthday: gender: etc: . )
i think just going through and filling out a small character sheet for your muse(s) is a great way for a beginner to start to get the gist of it all. that part is usually the bulk of what you'll need to do.
after that, you'll have to decide how you want to put up your lists/bios. for me, I have mine on my muses' blog pages - which i edit through the html, which is a whole different thing on it’s own. so if you're not comfortable with dealing with html codes or you’re not comfortable with too much editing, I would think that using google docs would be perfect for you !!
on google docs, you'd be able to make a template ( or find a template ) that you like, and you can construct your list - add and edit as you go. And all you would have to do is link your google docs somewhere on your blog where people will be able to find it. Most people usually link it in a post and pin that post so that it is always the first thing that is seen on their blog.
i know it's probably a lot of information being thrown at you, and I'm sorry if it sounds intimidating, but I promise that it's not !! you just have to find what is comfortable for you, look at other people's muse lists as examples. being a beginner in RP can seem daunting, but the rpc has lots of nice people that may be able to share a tip or two.
i hope this helps !!
