Worldbuilding Ecosystems!
I present to everyone, the first article in a series, all about worldbuilding ecosystems! I've been wanting to make something like this for a while, and I was originally going to write an article on writing species specifically, but I thought why not make articles about ecosystems as a whole!
Anyone who knows me knows how crazy I am about nature, wildlife, and everything related, and how passionate I am about it. Hell, I have almost four hundred species articles in the Yonderverse - almost a third of my total amount of articles.
The plan moving forwards is to add to this series, but if people really seem to enjoy it, then it will become a priority. I love this lil community and WA got me into writing, and I feel it's only right I try and return the favour by providing resources that can help people with their own creations!

THREE WAWA SHORTLISTS?!?!
HOLY CRAP GUYS!! I made three shortlists in the Worldbuilding Awards! I can't thank the community enough for the support, the votes, the love, everything. I am a nominee for the History Award, the Cartography Award, and the god-damn BEST WORLD Award. I can't believe it.
You can cast your votes using the link here, it is a google form :) I would love it if you guys considered voting for me, I'm absolutely flattered that I made it for not one, but three shortlists already. Love the World Anvil Community <3
Thank you Polina "Line" Arteev for making these graphics!

The Yonderverse is extra sparkly!
Today I've been working hard on the Yonderverse, adding some shiny new animations! Search pages are now extra sparkly, and while I don't expect everyone to be using search pages to navigate my world, it's a nice treat for anyone who stumbles across them. Check those out here! Major category pages will be seeing a significant facelift over the next few days, and then I'll be moving to other worlds during the World Anvil Worldbuilding Awards voting periods.
Check everything out below!
Hope you all have a great day! Did you guys tune into Worldbuilding Con? What was your favourite panel! I really enjoyed the panel on Planning your World :)

Squeezed an article out just in time for #duckuary2024 !
Just a fun little article as a creative break from polishing articles ready for the World Anvil Worldbuilding Awards. I'm having an absolute blast working on the finer details of my world, and tidying up the things I plan on submitting, but I needed a tiny break xD

A to Zoo's Birthday and Yonderverse CSS Upgrade!
The A to Zoo is turning 1 year old today! Thank you for all the love on this world, I've written over 50,000 words, made the coolest homepage ever, and it's just an exciting project that I can take my time with. I don't write all that fast in the world but every article I put out I put my all into. <3
The Yonderverse has also seen a little update today - content in articles should now center itself on larger screens, while the page background expands. Thank you Annie Stein for guiding me in the right direction while making that! Slowly but surely, the Yonderverse is becoming more and more epic and I thank you all for supporting my endeavours there as well :)
Have a great day everyone!

New Campaign - The Magocracy of Rose!
Tomorrow i'm starting a new campaign! I haven't played with this group for 10 years and we started together in 1996, so it's very exciting! The campaign takes place in the Magocracy of Rose, a kingdom filled with wizardry but also, a very strict regime!
Read all about it here:

Hooooooooooooooo NEW WORLD! Sort of!
Friday night I got the most random urge to revive an old world, Terra Ava. This world is inhabited by all kinds of bird people, other birds, and some more birds. This world is almost a year old now, but as soon as I created it and wrote my first article, all the inspiration I had for it just died. So here we are. Fresh coat of paint, all old articles are gone and never coming back, and it's time to make something awesome!
This last year or so I've felt like I've somewhat lost what worldbuilding is all about. To me, worldbuilding is about expression, about fun and joy. I want to enjoy what I write - don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the Yonderverse and that isn't going anywhere, but both the Yonderverse and the A to Zoo have so much pressure behind them, and I feel like I'm constantly having to impress everyone when I write anything.
This world will hopefully take away that pressure. It is just a fun little world I go to when I need a break and want to do some lighthearted worldbuilding. I hope people enjoy this world, but I won't let it pressure me ;)
I also have two articles prepared already!

Cabinet of Curiosities in the Yonderverse
Come and explore the office space of an oanie, my world's main antagonist species. These inter-galactic colonisers are not as evil as they appear from the outside - they do have a softer side. But don't forget that they've killed hundreds of intelligent species. So they're not the best of people.
I have answered ten prompts in this article so far, all with art! I've also written a quick stub for the A to Zoo, portals, and there shall be lots more coming for that world this month >:)

*NEW* Yonderverse Cover! For the last time! Maybe!
I swear to god I'm actually finished with this iteration of the Yonderverse cover. Can't say it won't get remade in a few years, but for now I'm done! I am in love with this. I don't like to pat myself on the back that much, but I am really proud of this and I think it came out wonderfully. This is a thank you for two hundred followers on my world and all the support I've received these past few years on World Anvil. I would not be here if it weren't for you guys. I am truly so honoured that I've been able to inspire people in this community, as you lot have done the same for me <3
Sorry for making this post twice! Forgot to add a header image, and that's the whole point of this journal post LOL - aaand it did not work, sorry to waste y'all's precious notifications! D:

New Yonderverse Cover!
In celebration of 200 followers, I drew a new cover for the Yonderverse! I've been wanting to do this for a little bit, but because it's such an important task I wanted to do it well, and obviously it's a scary big task so I just put it off. I really like it! I struggled to fill that gap in the middle, but after lots of feedback and a few different designs I settled with leaving it blank. The Yonderverse may be full of life, as seen by such vivid planets, but it is also isolating at times.
I tried to represent my different art styles for different planets, from realism (the star) to a more simple style (the ringed planet). I really hope people like this! Thank you everyone for your support of my world, it means the world to me and I'm so happy people enjoy my stuff <3
P.S. I really do love making these journal posts :D

What's this? A to Zoo's new homepage?
Yaaay! The A to Zoo finally has a brand new homepage! I've been wanting to make a new one for ages, and I'm really quite happy with this. I made some cool art as well, and I feel like I've finally found my own art style. Please let me know if you have any feedback, I always want to improve!

Monster Hunting!
I think I can finally say this article is complete! Monster Hunting was the first article I submitted to WorldEmber, so I have spent some extra time making it all shiny and awesome. I hope you enjoy reading this, it was super fun to make! <3 Can't wait to check out other worlds in the New Year's Resolution's Challenge, a great portion of my entry will go towards showing off worlds that inspired me this WE!

Hit 10k for WorldEmber!
WOOOOO!! 10k achieved a couple of days ago, badge secured! Would like to set 25k or 50k as a "goal", but not push myself to earn it if it comes a struggle. Here's a collection of my articles I've made so far!
I've made a range of articles so far this month, from enhanced stubs around 100-200 words long, to even reaching 2000+ words in one article.
Also, I've been featured today on the WorldEmber 2023 Advent Calendar!! Check it out here!

A New Unofficial Challenge for WorldEmber!
Helloooo everyone! I am so excited for this WorldEmber, not just for all the writing I want to do but for all of the writing the community is going to do. This year I am hosting my first ever unofficial challenge, obviously geared towards species. In this challenge, I would like to see people write at least one species. Preferably about one of the nine prompts in my article, but that's not mandatory. Just have fun and write cool things!
Animals are my life, conservation is something I strongly believe in and support, and I want to spread my love for animals and all things related. I love seeing the natural world in worldbuilding, it's always such a fun and diverse topic to explore.
If you want to participate in this challenge and make journal posts about it, use the #worldemberspecieschallenge hashtag! (it's a long one, sorry, I can't think of anything shorter that's specific enough.) #worldember #worldember2023 #species #unofficialchallenge #mochievements

WorldEmber in the Yonderverse
WorldEmber is coming!!
I am so excited, this will be my third WorldEmber. I am planning on fleshing out an entire solar system, the Cheem System. Each planet in this solar system is inspired by an Anvilite that I've grown close to in this past year. I thought it's a cute little project to do and WorldEmber will be the best thing to get the ball rolling, as the ball has been stationary since I made the Cheem System article in April.
Can't wait to see what everyone gets up to this WorldEmber! Below is a link to my pledge :D
P.S. It's my birthday today :P
