Directive: Summer Camp 2019

aka Summer Camp - Iteration 2.0

Let me just put on some sunscreen before throwing myself under the piercing UV rays of the sunny forge...

Greetings entities! As I sit here listening to Caeora and Dimitris talk about jam on a World Anvil Twitch chill stream, I thought a landing page to help me focus on the task at hand. This has been the only time of year I have been able to dedicate creating content for my world, so it's certainly a special time of the year for me. The last time I touched my world was last year's Summer Camp 2018!
I hope this year to give my world some more love and attention after many months of neglect. As a full time working mom with mounds of responsibilities, balancing time between IRL and here is the ultimate challenge! You will find me lurking Discord, sneaking around social media doing Enchanterly duties while reading/commenting Summer Camp articles when I can. Don't take for granted the time you have for worldbuilding and have fun during this event!

Mantra

Progress, not perfection!

Goals

1. Write more than 20 prompts (I reached 20 articles last year during Summer Camp 2018) - DONE!
2. Properly credit ALL art/images
3. Actually share my work
4. Design new cover art for the world's home page - Done!
5. Revamp my world's CSS - Done!

Retrospect

1. Pixlr + Unsplash was a great asset for turning around fast conceptual images/banners
2. I still struggle with sharing my writing
3. Getting ideas in the shower was a blessing
4. Used Twitter to engage more for the first time
