WorldEmber prep 2024

This will be my first committed WE as last year was a mess.

Week 1: Pledge Your Goal

1.1 Set a word goal and your area of focus

I will be aiming for 10k words spread between the other 8 of my Worlds.

1.2 Choose your area of focus

This year I will be focusing on:
◇ World building based on the stories I am creating this month for NE which is building up the history and lore of the other worlds, plus some snippets of characters stories/books to hopefully come.
◇ Stub killing especially in the word of Zephyria.
◇ Updating the world guides as informationis reveled.

1.3 Create or update your meta

I do not find the meta useful for the way I work. Insted I have created World Guides which are all collected in Hub of Guides & World links and located on their respective Home page.

Week 2: Prepare Your World for New Readers

2.1 Review your homepage

I am happy with my homepages and they will be updated every so often as the information is reveled.

2.2 Create or review your world primer

The world guides by my Inker Nnce the Lady of Moonshadow are their respective worlds primers. You can find them in Hub of Guides & World links.

2.3 Set up your community tools

Done ☆

2.4 CSS wizardry

I'm no CSS wizard, but I have been learning tricks with BBC and plan on learning CSS in the future.

Week 3: On the Hunt for Inspiration!

3.1 Read a book or watch a movie!

No need to read books when you have them memoraized ;)
The Marval universe technology has been a big inspiration for the Revised Earth.

3.2 Create a moodboard

I have about a gazillion Pinterest boards for inspiration.

3.3 Create or expand your writing playlist

No specific playlist for writing, as music is always playing but has become a favourite.

Week 4: Harness the Power of Friendship!

4.1 Find a community

I am always lurking around Discord mostly in the challenge channel.

4.2 Plan your writing schedule

My plan is to attempt and write every day but with a full schedule due to uni and work it right not happen.

4.3 Get some fresh air!

My "fresh air" time is in between activities and on buses

Cozy Cottage Enclave

Cozy Cottage Enclave badge by Rin Garnett

Cozy Cottage Oath:

• I will stop to stoke the fire when it dwindles. Rest when you are tired and for as long as you need.
• I won't force the fire to fit a different stove. Let your plans inspire you, not control you.
• I will follow sparks of joy, not chase dying embers. Write and read what you enjoy, not what's forced.
• My flame is beautiful and undying. Believe in yourself and your ability to create, including when it's a struggle.
• I will tend to all flames under my care. Working toward non-WorldEmber goals adds to your successes.

(Cozy Cottage oath is inspired by the Camp Chill guidelines from Annie Stein. Insert this badge into your own pledge with [img:5035416], or include the oath with [imgblock:5035416].)
