I want to write a fantasy story.>fantasy >genreWhy would you pick fantasy?Because it fits your bad and non-existant writing skills
How can I include elves? I'm German btw, should I use Elben or Alben or invent a new word?>inventing a new word for not-elvesTake you WoW/anime-shit somewhere else.>clicheed as fuckIt's alrigt to have a fetish for elves. But it would be better for you, if you'd spend more time with real women, instead of dreaming up imaginary women with pointed ears. Go to a bar and just be yourself - it's not that hard.So, your story is fantasy wish fulfillment with pointed ears? I knew you were a loser all along.
I've got the backstory of the world laid out in my head.Let me guess... it's not-HRE during the not-middleages?Science has factual evidence that daydreaming is, in the long run, extremely bad for you. So stop.
But how can I start the story and engage the reader? I don't want to annoy or rush the reader with background info (but I need to somehow, do I?).>implying you have readers>implying they will be engaged>implying they will not be annoyed>implying anyone would be interested in background info>implying anyone would be interested in your "story" at all
Thanks /lit/!4chan is part of the problem.>being on 4chan when you could hone your writing skills RIGHT NOW you lazy dickayyyy
>hurr fantasee need elves durrrrrrr
>hurrrrrr le funnee quirky spoilered text DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Judging by the quality of your op post, you're an annoying autist. Please go back to reddit or /v/ or whatever other shithole you usually visit and give up on writing.
Embarrasing

Don't. Do not ever, ever write anything. Even if your life depends on it, regard the pen as a serpent, for, should one drop of ink bleed into paper, the whole of society will suffer.
I would love to help, kid, but your abuse of thespoiler textreally made me lose interest.
Unless, of course, your name is Elliot Harvey. If it is, you need a lot of help and I would like to offer it to you.

Don't ask for advice in this warren of pseudo-intellectual reprobates. If you want advice for fantasy, ask /tg/. But there's no way to progress other than reading to prime your imagination and writing to hone your craft.
