Reading Challenge 2025

My summer camp experience in 2025 felt noticeably easier the second time around. I managed to hit Diamond rank again, and even though this was only my second year participating, the fact that I could reach that level a second time made me incredibly proud. Last year, the process felt more uncertain and exhausting, but this year I had a better sense of what worked for me—and what didn’t.   What really changed things was the new brainstorming method I tried. I started hosting brainstorming sessions while watching Twitch streams, something I had never considered doing before. Sitting down and jotting out every possible idea, then walking away and returning the next day to actually write, made a huge difference. It gave my brain the space to process overnight, so when I sat down to draft, I already knew where I wanted to go. The result? The entire experience felt less stressful, more focused, and more enjoyable.
  Because of this approach, I not only kept my momentum but actually managed to finish early—a first for me. That sense of relief and accomplishment made the whole camp feel more rewarding. Looking ahead, I know for certain I’ll be using this method again. It’s a strategy that worked, and it helped me rediscover the joy in the process instead of just the pressure of the finish line.
