Summer Camp Pledge

I have never done this in the two years I have been on World Anvil, and I am both excited and nervous to do it! I'm going on vacation with my family the last week of July, so I will not be doing anything then, but hopefully, I can at least get several articles done.

Goals

I would like to try for a copper badge, but I'll be content with about five articles. I usually write really slow, so even that will be an achievement. I will try and focus on areas of my world that will be important to the main story, which I haven't done that much for. I need to set up some political people, specific locations, and maybe a few events or philosophies depending on the prompts.
The themes for this year are expanse, leadership, discovery, and monstrous. For expanse prompts, I'll try to focus on areas of Narthica that I haven't gotten to yet, such as Crytland's ice plains, Tierhal's fields, or Whirlan's lakes and swamps. An alternate dimension would be fun, but I have a feeling I'd go too far. Leadership will be pretty easy. Narthica has several hundred years of rulers for me to explore. For discovery, I don't have many ideas. Possibly some Gifted theories or medicinal accomplishments. Monstrous can be used in many different ways depending on the prompts. Some rulers will certainly be awful and I can always create new terrors to torture my characters.

Motivation

I haven't really done much for my world overall and I've done even less on articles from Narthica, so that's my main motivation. I also haven't done this before and want to prove to myself that I can. I also just want to try it out and be included in the World Anvil community, even if it's just a little. Up until recently I've felt rather disconnected from everyone else here, mostly because of the time difference and partly due to my extremely cramped schedule. So getting involved with this seems like a good way to become a better part of the community.

Planning

I don't have many regular writing times, but I can usually use a computer on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Those will be the days that I try to start, publish, and copy information to articles. I'll most likely work on writing at various times during the week, probably at night.

Community

Ah, this is going to be the hardest. I do not have any social media accounts or additional ways to promote my work or discuss writing with people other than close friends. That is not likely to change this year, much less this month. So, unfortunately, I will be forced to rely on commenting and liking articles in order to get views, comments, and likes of my own. It would be so helpful and mean so much to me if anyone who enjoys my articles would share them with people they know. Regardless, I'll try to do what I can.

End Notes

This is kind of a short article, but I don't really know what else to add and my self-imposed rules are pretty simple. In short, I'll try to get a copper badge but will settle for at least five articles, I will be absent from July 24-31, and I want to be more present in the World Anvil community. I look forward to reading everyone's articles once they're done! Good luck everyone!
An additional note, please ignore any weird formatting on this article. I already had to copy and paste everything after typing it because it got messed up.

The areas I hope to work on

(At least near it)
And also the countries of Whirlan, Tierhal, and Crytland and their politics and stuff.
