    the concept of linking a specific apartment for reference has blown my mind. i feel like those galaxy brain memes rn

      Thanks! It didn't occur to me to think of that as unusual... I'll share it in my writer Discord group and see what people say! I think I probably over-research more than some other writers. I do feel that using real locations (homes, restaurants etc) even if not faithfully depicted does help enrich descriptions.

        i have seen people put in *floor plans* before? but youre right!! having the location referenced really added a lot to the experience :> i get the same vibe when authors talk about specific towns, or professions. stuff where you can feel the tidbits and quirks come from a place of care, or at least attention?

        like with the pants building. thats such a weird detail that it makes the world feel really... lived in? which. well. makes sense that its a real place. but i think you know what i mean orz
