TJ's Mind-Mapvember 2022

Current progress: 7/30

For Mapvember this year I didn't feel like cartography, so I decided to do some worldbuilding in the form of mind maps based on each prompt! I plan to explore these concepts further during WorldEmber starting December 1st.

Planning Ahead for WorldEmber

I made a planning tool in Google Sheets to help me sort out my jumbled ideas, give them priorities and also help me decide what to do next! So far I've added in my list of existing stubs and set a priority level for each of them so that I know what's the most important for me to create during WorldEmber this year.
I figured other folks here might find it useful too, so I made it available as a FREE (or pay what you want) resource that anyone can use!
