Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 263!
So! How's the start of 2026 treating you? Good? I hope so. How's the reading and resolutions coming? There are a lot... just so many... articles to choose from! Really good ones all over the place. Lots of fun lore, some thoughtful, others fun or scary... even fun and scary? Eh, I'll go with 'both, both is good'. But, as we're all diving into reading this month, I won't ramble on. So, without further delay!
Here is the current crop that REALLY stood out for me! Enjoy!
Once again, I grabbed my satchel and set out on the digital road to find some unexplored countries in the Anvilspace. As always, the Anvilspace didn't disappoint!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 262!
How was your WorldEmber? Make the word count? Entered the Special Categories? Everyone's role is different, so whatever your goal was, I hope you tackled it! But now, that takes us to New Year's Resolutions. Those are a good time to read, reflect, and relax. Take a break from the mad dash of WorldEmber to see what other's have made. As a writer once said, "refill the well of inspiration"... which we all need, right? So, without further delay!

Wrapped up Session 0 (Last Night) Character Creation and Initial Adventure for My Shadowdark RPG Campaign on the world of Galatria. It went well despite only having 2 players. I just had them create and play 2 characters each. They had fun, along with mayhem, with several and I do mean SEVERAL (Nat1) Magical Mishap Rolls! Nonetheless, the party survived its first little foray into Dardin's Pit. #Shadowdark #sharethelove
Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 261!
How's WorldEmber been? It's almost over. Jan 3rd is so very close. Well, no matter what your goals were-word count badge, special categories, expand your setting, etc-I hope you nailed them. But, if not, there's still time to squeeze a little more out! From what I understand, after this comes the Reading Challenge! Great challenge really. It's a time to kick back, rest and reflect. Recharge through reading other people's worlds and worldbuilding. Along with that comes the Best of World Anvil! That's a big one. I've had people say around me 'oh, I could never'... but really... why not? You never know. It's a chance to put out your best. You might be surprised!
But, while I've been chasing a badge or two, I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!

So, how's Worldember going? Aiming for wordcount? One of the special categories? Maybe both? Both can be good. I've been writing my own WorldEmber entries, but tried to keep up with reading... there is SO MANY! It's all so good, too. I feel for the judges who have to review the special categories! But!

I've been busily adding my cyberpunk noir science fiction world here on WA. The Red Dragons are the largest criminal syndicate on Chendiuria. Aditi "Adi" Nizhóní Peshlakai , my former Colonial Fleet Marine Myrmidon MC, has delt with the Red Dragons in the past.
I'm looking forward to WorldEmber 2025 and plan to focus on geography. I've got quite a list of articles I want to write.
I'm doing really well with NovelEmber. I am currently at 31,742 words, and I am contemplating perhaps increasing the challenge to 100k words if I can figure out how to do that on PWA.
For the foreseeable future, I am posting a chapter each Sunday. I am alternating between two stories set in my Augmented Valor world. One story features Adi and Shadows of Eros; the other story takes place about 70 years before Adi's time.

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 256!
So, how's the WorldEmber prep going? Got planned the world or worlds you'll worldbuild in? If you've more than one world, that can be a challenge to figure out! But no matter one or more worlds, planning is key to WorldEmber. It gives you a roadmap of where you're going, which helps stave off the dreaded... "where do I go from here?" To help with some inspiration, I've found a few from past WorldEmbers! So, without further delay!

Still working on getting my Augmented Valor cyberpunk noir world here on World Anvil. I love worldbuilding, and appreciate the platform giving me the ability to bring my worlds to life.
I am participating in Novelember and have (so far) managed to keep my daily word count where it needs to be, excepting such writing as this.
Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 255!
So long Spooktober but hello Novelember and WorldEmber Prep! With Novelember, 50K of prose is a lot. But, it can be done! Still, it takes some dedicated time and energy to do that. Then again, so does WorldEmber! Thinking of trying one or the other? Tackling both isn't out of the question but, hm, that might be really tough! Either way, it's a lot of writing! So I'll keep my rambling short! :D I've got a few good ones from Spooktober, so we can give that challenge a fond farewell.
So, without further delay!

I didn't write anything for Spooktober. I am participating in NovNov, even though I have no intent at the moment to publish a book. My writing is not exactly setting the world on fire, but writing keeps me entertained. I started writing again, after a nearly 20 year break, at the suggestion of my VA therapist for post-service PTSD therapy.
I am loving the new writing prompts. Below is one of the first entries I wrote at a WA prompt.

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 254!
So! Spootober is wrapping up. How many prompts did you tackle? Did you get them all? If not, there's still one more week! Then, after that, comes NovelEmber and prep for WorldEmber! Maybe both? I might try for WorldEmber prepping myself. What about you?
This time, I've tried to find some really fun and inspiring worldbuilding since... WorldEmber is coming! So, without further delay!

Well, we're partway through Spooktober! How's the prompts coming? I have read the most amazing work! Just o much fun. But, that's the fun of Spooktober, right? Just grab a prompt and run with it spooky-style! Have you written enough for the badge? Or are you taking it chill-ghost style and just haunting through those prompts, writing deep? Hey, both are valid ways to do it (at least in my little corner of the graveyard)!
But while I've been writing up my own Spooktober entries, I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!

Working on getting my world built on World Anvil. I've imagined this world for more than 30 years, long before I even knew what cyberpunk was.
I'm moving to World Anvil from Fictionary as the world building options here are significantly better, and it's a little cheaper each month.
My super augmented former Colonial Fleet Marine, Adi, and her story are still a work in progress.
Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 252!
So, Spooktober is in full swing! Have you given it a try? I've seen a lot of worldbuilding show up, and it's just too fun! Some are large articles, but others are small. Some is worldbuilding, but others are short stories. Which brings up the point, there really is no wrong way to celebrate Spooktober. Not really. It's great fun and a good way to stretch the imagination. So go give it a try!
But, while I've also been working on a few entries for Spooktober, I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!

This time, I'm seeing a healthy number of short stories answering prompts! That's awesome! For me that feels like right in the spirit of thing (... yes, I went there! ) with a good old fashion ghost story!

Well, I finally got one of my central locations rough entered in my Augmented Valor cyberpunk noir science fiction world. This is very much still a work in progress as I am moving everything from Fictionary to World Anvil.
I hope you all are well and staying healthy! I want to thank everyone that started reading and are still reading All Hallows Queen. This story is coming straight off the dome, so I appreciate every view. Although, you guys scare me with how quick you read, but I bet you all go through whole books a day.
Synopsis: After Nyxis and Bast defeat the creature in the Valkyrie Forest, the Elves return to Chakram where the Commander learns about the ever-present concern past diplomacy: The Void and the things it creates.

So! Now that it's over, come clean. Team Elves? Or Team Aliens? (If you want to go Alien Elves? Hey I won't judge!) With that, back to your projects? How are they coming? Or... is it now... prep for World Ember? Swordtember? Spooktober (I love that one!). Maybe something else? There is a lot happening in the fall, just like always, so maybe it's more than one thing?
In any case, I've a few fun ones to toss out. Some new, a few old but I think they'll be good inspiration!
But I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!

As always, I want to give my continuous thanks for everyone that had read, started reading, currently reading, or bringing others on to read.
I’m proud of you all making it this far in the week; I believe that deserves acknowledging! As such, I have a bunch of for you all!!
Chapter 7 is very background heavy with a L O T of details and Easter eggs. I don’t have a definitive release date, but expect the next chapter sometime in September 2025.
[/color]I have a HEFTY 8 Archives that I feel comfortable to release. They are currently public and free to view in Aeon. 1 location, 2 extra, and a whooping 5 characters!
THIS IS THE THING I’M PROUDEST OF!!! I actually sat down and spent ample time trying to figure out the UI, and my squirrel brain finally figured it out.
Update: You will have to follow Aeon in order to post, but it is not a requirement to enjoy everything else ¬¬.

Hello everyone!
This is my second year in this lovely, amazing community but first ever post - so it's only fitting that it's all about Summer Camp. When we all began this month of creativity I'd been stuck in a writer's block for ages and nothing felt fun anymore. My novel was stuck. My words never came out right. It's been a little bleak, but the support I found with you all gave me the energy to take my notebook into the forest and start to write. Why was I stuck? What questions remained that I wasn't sure of? What other corners could I flee to when the main setting felt too overwhelming? Enter Summer Camp!
A copper badge has become a silver one and while I hope I can keep going towards gold, I also have a film to shoot all week heh. This is my progress so far and I hope they're worth something, they sure are to me. Especially the Nyrrah. I'd love to meet one in real life.
Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 245!
Here we go! End of Summer Camp! Well... almost. How are the prompts coming? Did you take your time or rampage through them? Either way, it's all good! Like last time I'll keep this short so everyone can tackle those Summer Camp prompts! (There are just so many!)
While tackling my own worldbuilding, I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!

How's your Summer Camp doing? The prompts are pretty challenging this time. I know I'm having to sit down and scratch my head a little to figure out what I want to write. How about you? Going after all of them? Or just taking your time, and diving deep into each one? I mean, there's no wrong way to do it, right?
But because it's Summer Camp and we're worldbuilding like crazy, I'll keep it quick and short with some that I think are really inspirational for Summer Camp. So, without further delay!

Day 3 of Summer Camp: A dish served in every household.
SO! This was a tough one, as a foodie that is. I love food, I love food so much I cook it whenever I am not eating fast food and I am a picky taster. I have to spice and it I have to make sure everything is perfect.
So what the heck is Weissknochla? It's actually inspired by a dish I grew up on that my mother used to make, that she learned from her mother and so on. It's a traditional dish that I took have made numerous times, but I, of course, have overcomplicated the heck out of.
So I decided to make it last night, but dumbed down and simplified to fit in my world of Belle Epoque wonderment and I would hope that I did so with this.
I don't want to share the actual name because I am sure many people will claim I just copied the recipe off some online site instead of making my own - I know how you are, internet!
But this is a nice, warm stew. Thick, creamy, chickeny...
mmmmmm... Enjoy!

The Lucian Faith within my world of Ezre is one of my FAVORITE things I haven't written about yet - mainly because of how weird religion works in my world.
So, the thing is, there are no gods - but there are these animistic spirits called DIUM, check them out here - Dium who exist and are the manifestation of all the natural processes of the world and thus, magic is just the mortal manipulation of these processes by making deals with the spirits. So! How does faith work with that?
Well, they are teachers - scholars and such - who help ensure that the big spirit from another plane of existence doesn't scam you out of anything important, like your life or free will of that 20$ that gram-gram gave you for christmas. All the important things in life.
Read here to see the rough draft of my article before I start cleaning it up!

Well, SummerCamp is here! Good luck! I won't say much since we've all rushing at those prompts, right? I've got a couple I'm looking at, the others I'm still puzzling over. How about you? Already chewed through the first prompts? Or taking is slow and going deep with each one?

Summer Camp is almost here! Sort of. How is everyone? Summer Camp homework shaping up? Prep looks like it's coming along nicely. So, have you figured out how you're going to tackle summer camp? That's important, too! Not just maps, or what world, but the 'how'. Will you take it at an even pace? Or savagely attack each prompt, sparing none of them? Somewhere in between works , too! At least for me, pacing for Summer Camp means a lot. For me? I tend to go "Chill". Take my time. Quality over quantity as the saying goes. But it's an important personal choice!
This time, I've tried for a good mix. Inspiration for this year's summer camp! So, without further delay!

Summer Camp is here! ( almost! Kinda? ) At least, the homework is. Have YOU done your homework? It does help, actually. The homework makes a nice set of guidelines to go by, or a map for your worldbuilding and writing. And don't we all just love a good map? I know I do!
In case anyone needs it, here's the Summer Camp Prep 2025 page!
Which means, I'd best keep my rambling short this time. After all, there's homework to do! So, without further delay!

Working out how to use, or twist, a prompt into your setting is a huge challenge. Stretches the imagination, which is good! So this time, I tried to find some worldbuilding to help you set for Summer Camp and maybe.... who knows... go Diamond!
But while I've been wondering what world I'll use for Summer Camp, I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!
Here is the current crop that REALLY stood out for me! Enjoy!
This one is really good, and totally caught me, but! Some trigger warnings here for the world: death, horror, and psychological distress!
Once again, I grabbed my satchel and set out on the digital road to find some unexplored countries in the Anvilspace. As always, the Anvilspace didn't disappoint!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 238!
How's it going? Worldbuilding coming along? Oh, to get right to it—are you ready for Summer Camp? It's coming pretty soon! Summer Camp is hectic but fun. A challenge to find where and how to work in the prompts into my worldbuilding. In some ways, good practice for World Ember! Also, let's not overlook a certain unofficial challenge—there's still time to get into it!
This time, I've got a little different mix. Here is a collection of stories used to expand worldbuilding, but also materials, species, and more!
So, without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 237!
How are your projects coming along? Writing for the unofficial challenges? Hope so! What's your favorite piece this time you've written? Was it new? Or something you rewrote to revise... or did you have a better idea to expand it? All of that could be true at the same time! (I do that a lot...)
This time, in between my own writing and worldbuilding, I think I've tracked down some really good worldbuilding. Some characters, rituals, and a few darker things! We all need those shadows to balance out the bright side. Just makes for better balance in a setting!
So, without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 236!
How are your projects coming along? Worldbuilding going like you want? I hope so! For me, it has been, but I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so I've been polishing (and polishing again) instead of pushing worldbuilding out live. But hey, it goes like that sometimes, doesn't it? Oh, how about the unofficial challenges? Jumped into any yet? Which one? Or ones?
Just in case, I've got a nice collection of inspiration here. A wide mix from buildings and species to magic and documents. Pretty wide range. But also important in their own way, shaping how cultures might work, language, or other more fundamental worldbuilding pieces of a setting.
So, without further delay!
Here is the current crop that REALLY stood out for me! Enjoy!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 235!
So April's out but May is here! How is the week treating you so far? Writing and worldbuilding projects turning out like you want? I hope so! With May, I've spotted at least one unofficial challenge, but you know more always turn up without warning. If you see any, comment and let me know! (because I might give it a go!)
This time, I'm keeping it a bit short as my own worldbuilding and writing needs some attention. But I think I've got a good, broad selection of articles to read, one of which is some nice RPG rules! Let's break it down, shall we?
Without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 234!
How's April coming? Projects coming along? I hope great! Did you try out the unofficial Adventure April challenge? I also heard there is an unofficial Map challenge, too! Not too late to give either a try. But! May is around the corner, and that means there's another unofficial challenge on the horizon!
There you go, and this one would be a good one to practice those editing and polishing skills. I know I've a ton of worldbuilding that I look back on and think... "Well, I could have done better with that" or "You know? I left something out." Still, there's always staying heads down on your own worldbuilding, too for writing or gaming campaigns and on. After all... Summer Camp ... it's a'coming!
This time, I've some fun inspiration. Geography, cultures, myths, species and more. Plenty to chew on, read, and get some ideas flowing!
So, let's break it down! Without further delay!
Here is the current crop that REALLY stood out for me! Enjoy!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 233!
So, how's your projects and challenges coming? Written your Ritual or Renewal? There are a bunch already submitted! They are fantastic, too. So good, I've been sticking with reading them as best I can. There are a bunch that stood out for me.
This is really an interesting challenge. A tradition focused on renewal, rebirth, or rejuvenation. That covers a lot of territory, doesn't it? Each of those impacts a culture in so many ways. Shapes the language, and in turn the people. One of those deep cornerstones of a culture that most might not think about how important they really are!
So let's get do it! Now, without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 230!
How's the worldbuilding coming along? Did you make it to Worldbulding Con? If not, I understand there are videos! So plenty of chances to check it out, even if it's over. But! Since it is March, have you tried out the Unofficial Marchitecture Challenge? I've not tried it but I've been seeing some really fun worldbuilding show up for it! March is still going on, so it might be a fun one to try.
I'll keep my rambling short this time, because we've some worldbuilding to read! So, without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 229!
How's Worldbuilding Con going for you? Attend any of the panels? What did you think of them? There seemed to be a lot more this year than last. It is a lot of good information though! Also, how are your projects coming along? Summer Camp isn't that far off, might be time to plan a bit. To figure out what world or worlds you're going to use for Summer Camp.
So, without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 228!
How is March treating you? Good? I hope you're making progress on your projects! Oh, tried out any unofficial challenges? Which one? As for me, I'm just moving forward on my own projects, but I'm keeping an eye on any challenges coming in April and on. Besides, Summer Camp is on the horizon!
This time I found myself reading a lot o Natural Law worldbuilding. That's fun stuff. The backbone of settings, how they connect and interact. Could be laws of magic, where superpowers originated from, but it could be something deeper that connects cultures. I think that's why I like reading them, you never know what you'll find!
But let's jump in! So, without further delay!

So, we're getting into March! How are your projects coming along? Getting some good writing or game design nailed down? Hope so! How about Worldbuilding Con? Looking forward to it? I know I am! I'll try and jump in where I can to enjoy the con. Last year was pretty fun.
Speaking of fun, this time, I've got a good mix of Titles, Settlements, Ethnicities and a Document! In case you need inspiration for what you're working on, or... in case you'd like to give this a try!
How's that for a challenge over March? I might try it, might not, but wow that sounds like fun!
But, while I've been wondering if I'll try March of 31 Tales, I've also tried to catch up on my reading. So, without further delay!

Hey, Everybody! Here we go with Issue 226!
End of February already? This month just flew right by! Did you try any of the unofficial challenges? There were a bunch. Also, did you know more are coming in March? I know of Marchitecture! That's a good one. But I've no doubt more will appear! Going to give Marchitecture a try?
This time, I've got a mix of inspiration for you! There are some species, organizations, geographical locations, just a bunch. They are, like always amazing! They make for a good break between worldbuilding!
Speaking of taking a break and reading... without further delay!

Dromaria is back with another installment of our From the Village Vault series: The Running of the Buffalo. The goblins have had their day, now it’s the buffalo’s turn. Survive the mayhem and be richly rewarded, or be trampled by the stampede.
This is the 26th free 5e adventure we have crafted for Dromaria and we are approaching enough to complete our chronicles book compiling them all so far. Each one spotlights a piece of our Southern Tritos Dominion.
In other news, only 8 days remain in the first round of the World Anvil Worldbuilder Awards. We have submitted to several categories and are hoping to advance as far as we can. We love having the opportunity to share our work with you all and the further we go, the more people will have a chance to discover us.
Hi, Friends! With the new year about to start, I thought this would be a good time to #SharetheLove for a new member of the community, DW Dixon, and his alternate history, steampunk world of Grisham! It's the setting for his first three mystery/adventure novels featuring the intrepid Buchanan Brothers.
I am eager to introduce you to my friend DW in the hopes that you will, like me, become a fan of his enchanting world and easy style.
If you're reading this, then you know that the learning curve around here can be a little steep; it takes a bit of time and practice to get the hang of things. Not only creating articles, but also navigating the community, making friends, and finding fans for your amazing and excellent writing and worldbuilding.
One of the things that has been critical to my growth in both of these areas has been participating in this community, making friends who understand the process of taking a wild idea and making it into something you can show off with pride.
Y'all know how much I love sharing secrets in the community feed. This post is no different.
DW and I met when he became a part of the weird little collective of creative radicals I've been assembling in the quiet cracks in the creative community where the worldbuilders collect. Two tiny fledglings struggling to swim, and doing better at it with the support and encouragement of each other.
And never once has it mattered that he's a swan, and I'm a goose. honk!
Y'all, there would not be a Worldbuilding Wednesday or a weekly Ask the Bard if it weren't for DW coming in, every Blue Anvil week and dropping a question or two into the queue for me to answer. If you read my "Ask the Bard" columns, and it feels like I'm sharing an inside joke with the community that you don't quite get...it's because it's directly related to a conversation DW and I have had!
All of this is how I know that once DW sees what this community is and what we're about, he'll not only fit himself into it, he will -- like me -- begin digging himself into the bedrock of this place, another solid pillar of friendly support, feedback, and very interestingly shaped pointy sticks that he will use to drive us all into the unexplored reaches of our own creativity and worldbuilding experience!
Start this year with achievable creative resolutions by learning from your fellow worldbuilders!
