New Year's Resolutions
Learning from the community has always been a thing that comes from hanging within World Anvil. With this new challenge, I seek to peruse and grow from observing each of these 10 articles.
My goal for the year is continual progress, like walking on the path, only forwards, a (current) goal of 25k words of articles manuscript and editting per year.
This piece teaches me you can get way closer to the edge than I have been getting, fearing offending people or breaking WA's rules, and that alot more can be done with the power of allusion. Bravo.
Teaches the value of a little real world research and more so using the research to bulk out things rather than leaving these facts implied by what they reference.
Use of other article's article block can draw the eye and pull a person deeper into the world, and when I get multi-image art, learning a rotating image block can provide info and reference to the paragraphs.
This one reminds me to allow the Folliad to be alien, not just green humans, and embrace the dryad inspired network that is the default inspiration of the world.
Pendraken is a glorious reminder that some of the pillars of your world can be people that spread out information rather than places and things that fill in and inform people. This article feels so alive and that every link can be its own journey.
Less a lesson and more a reference point going forwards to help with the structure of my cosmology. Grrr cosmology articles.
While so many lessons can be learnt from this, this one will always be a reminder that not every market stall has to exist in the market district, or not every house has to be in residential. The outliers make for great stories.
A great guideline for a pantheon and the people who support it. Paying attention to it going forwards.
Another one from this writer, showing a cool way to use content warnings and another showing of just how crunchy WA's guidelines are.
A reminder that the strange and magical can also be so scary in the mundane-ness of its basic story. St Elmo's fire is just fire on a ship. and this is just a hurricane. But the magic and the madness is here in this story.
I love all the tooltips and science speak that you know is not to be expanded upon but like a mirror in a terrarium is there to give the illusion of depth when what is there is enough.
Thank you so much for the mentions!
If you're passing through, feel free to give a squiz or comment. I love to learn from others.
Especially about structuring people as articles.
