Hey PB readers and writers ✍️ I figured while not reading related, many people who love books also love writing.
I would love to start creatively writing and I have no idea where to start. I have whole fantasy worlds in my brain with their own political systems but I am missing the core skills to tell a short story never mind getting all my big ideas onto a page. I think I need to start small and build up my skills. Does anyone have any advice on where to begin?
(FYI my current writing experience is very much writing copy for charity websites, newsletters etc but nothing else).

I recently discoverded the "cosy fantasy" genre and I was wondering if something equivalent but not fantasy-specific exists ? Is there a name for stories that are cosy and low stakes plot driven ?
In anime we have "slice of life" and in vidéo games the "casual" or "Stardew Valley like" type of games 😂, but in litterature I can't seem to find a name for this.
