Year of *scream* Got to Get it Done + Top 20

As I was chosen to judge the document category for World Ember 2024, I have read quite a few exceptional articles. Some articles hooked me right away. Others weren't my cup of tea, so to speak. While some fell in the middle where I think 'This is cool' but it doesn't truly grab me. And that's okay because I've read something new and learned something from it.

What I've Learned

What Hooked Me

  • Some of the articles that I read weren't that long when it came to word count but...
  • They gave me just enough information to let me know what was going on, plus...
  • It was the right information and finally...
  • I wanted to learn more about the world after reading the article.

What Didn't Hook Me

  • A few articles were extremely long, and I had a hard time time staying focused on them.
  • The article didn't have enough information for me to truly get a good understanding.
  • The article left me confused because I wasn't sure about the topic.

Goals

  1. Edit The Doomsday Codex and with luck have it completed by June.
  2. With luck have The Doomsday Codex published by August 1st, 2025.
  3. Finish updating Caelum Prime
  4. Continue importing and expanding the Sielah Universe
  5. Continue building Order of the Silver Dawn
I have other ideas for things to write and publish but they're shimmering right now and I don't want to overload myself. As I'm aware of them, I hope that I will be able to do something with them this year, like at least getting started on writing them.

My Top 20

Here they are and in no particular order.
