I have a Sci-fi world in my head, I just need to get it on paper. [View all]

I've wanted to write a Sci-fi story for a couple years now, but I have not had the ambition to do it, it's just seems so daunting and intimidating.

I've been strongly inspired by the Orion's Arm Universe Project and Asimov's Foundation novels. This Sci-Fi world is set around 2,500 years from now. The world has warp drives (I generally hate "Handwavium", but FTL travel is necessary for the world I want to work socially, politically, militarily, and economically), and "post-human" beings far more intelligent than we can even comprehend influencing the direction of societies from behind the scenes.
