This is honestly why I liked your script for "that story in the San Juan Islands" that you let me read a decade ago, or whenever it was. It just started. Things began happening. I started reading and the "worldbuilding" part evolved around the action. Weird shit made sense on the next page, because of what happened on the previous page. I got rolled up into the story, and the world evolved around the story. Juxtapose that with so many other fledgling writers that fancy themselves "world builder", who spend 30 pages telling the reader how the world works, just to set up the one "clever" scene where the character ties all these weird threads together to solve the problem. BORING. PREDICTABLE.
