That's an interesting question. I suppose there are many fictional worlds and as a reader you go there and become part of the story: that's what I do.
Raeder Lomax
I never think of plot. Plots don't interest me. Motivation is what interests me and out of that the plot evolves.

I can only speak for myself, but I'm always in that state of mind. I can write anytime about anything. That is my "real" world: the imaginary world. The unreal world is that of paying bills and all that other nonsense.

Read as much as you can and learn from the writers that you admire. Then make it your own.

Book 4 of the Midnight Sleeper Series:
"Come along to the Jazz Age as it bursts onto the scene, 100 years ago, and yanks the Victorian era off of life support to give us the turbulent years of the 1920s: a time with no plan and no direction, but loaded with energy and creativity, and a madness that always rides piggyback on good intentions. Come along with Beau LaHood and friends to a world long gone and live in it as it is written and spoken. Hear the roar of coal-fired steam locomotives; board floating speakeasies just out of reach of the authorities in New York; visit distant lands where a different kind of madness is brewing as people speak as if no one is listening. Then encounter a sorceress reluctantly abiding in a world that dismisses all wonder save for the corrosive grab for power. Come, there’s no time to waste."
