Journals of Yesteryear - Worldbuilding Awards 2024

My best worldbuilding and entries for the World Anvil Worldbuilding Awards 2024.

It's been a busy year for worldbuilding and I'm excited for the return of the Worldbuilding Awards! I'd like to share with you what I submitted to this year's Worldbuilding Awards (both from Journals of Yesteryear and from my dark fantasy world, Melior) - I'm really proud of the work that I've created, and I hope that you find it inspiring! Take a quick peek at my entries and please consider nominating me for an award using the voting widget on each page (you don't even need a World Anvil account)! Voting is open from March 20th - April 3rd 2024 You can only vote once per category, so make sure to check out the competition I'm up alongside, too! (List of all entries)
