A Call to Adventure in WorldEmber 2022

"The Trilogy never end. It just return to a status quo."

It has been a very hard time for the past few months. The transition into adulthood is somewhat very difficult and many problem caomes more than I expected. I have even failed the Spooktober. However, the same can't be applied to WorldEmber.

It's been pleasure to achieve such incredible challenge. Since I started my journey I've participated them 3 times - two of them got the badges. So I pledge to myself to reach the 10,000 words this December. Before the biggest challenge begin, the preparation(homework) has to be made. You can click on each headers to learn more details.

Prep I: Pledge Ember

If you have more than one world setting, which one is the most important to you right now? Why?

I'm thinking of my overdue story's plot recently, and it is taking place in Sungear. So I think I'm going to focus on The Exotic Program with a story-focused worldbuilding. On the major scale, I'm going to focus on my biggest world Terraloga. When I look back after a long break, I felt like my world is empty and the pitch is unclear. So I want to fresh it out once more.

Which area of that world setting will allow you to achieve your goals (Continuing your novel/campaign, or starting a new one?).

The dream of Valus the First must be continued. I'm going to focus on the next Channel War, a current conflict in Terraloga between two superpowers. With my rough draft from June, I want to take deeper in details in politic and military. In contrast with The Exotic Program, I'm going to expend on a single story, involving 2 main characters and a few new settings.

How will it help you achieve those goals?

I hope I can finish the first draft of my long-overdue screenplay in The Exotic Program with a proper backstory, and the big, giant leap in the current affair of Terraloga with two possible short-stories.

Not quite good. I'm so busy this month. I may not achieve the goal unfortunately :(   Any tips?

Hey that's okay, sometimes busy things come up :)   Hmmm tips... I would say first sit and ask yourself if you WANT to still reach 10k this year. If you don't, that's perfectly okay! Life takes priority and WorldEmber comes around every year, so there's always next time :)   If you do still want to go for it, divide your remaining wordcount by the number of days left. It might look like a scary number still, so break it down further into two (or three) chunks. Those chunks you can try to chip away at any time you've got a spare few minutes in the day.   Also if time feels tight, leave the editing until later! Braindump the worldbuilding! Be fearless of messy articles! Even if the words stop flowing and you end up jotting down bullet point lists in your articles, that's okay and you can tidy things up after you've reached your goal :)   I hope that helps!
