2024 WorldEmber Prep Homework

Week 1: Pledge Your Goal

I can't believe it's almost that time again, but here we are! What a year it's been.

Pledge

I'm in a very strange position at the moment where I am out of work and, therefore, have no idea of how busy I'll be over December. I'm hoping to be busy, but I know it's going to be difficult to tell, and it's also going to be difficult to guess at how my mental health will be if I am still out of work at that point.
With all of that being said, I want to challenge myseif. Last year I achieved 83k, and I am not going to try for that again, but 50k seems like something which would be difficult but not impossible.

Areas of Focus

Last year, I found having a wide range of focuses useful because it meant I could jump around depending on how I was feeling. So I'm going to do the same this year. I have four worlds I'm working on, so I'll pick a couple of areas for each one.

P'Ache

P'Ache is an entire universe which makes the scope very broad. This WE I'll be focusing on:

• Building P'Ache Star System
• Creating New Species
• Fleshing Out Peacekeeper Society

The Wilds

The Wilds is the world I'm using for writing my current novel series, which is generating a lot of stubs. So the focus will be:

• Stub Killing For The Towns
• Stub Killing For Nomads

Solace

Solace is a new Science Fantasy world which is based around cults and magic. Therefore my focuses will be:

• Build Out The Cult
• Build Out The Magic System

Audiode

Audiode is one of those worlds which was made with every intention of being a project for the year, but fell through the cracks. There is only one focus:

• Build More Star Systems

One thing which worked well last year was a to-do list (2023 WorldEmber To Do List), so I'll make the same this year, but one for each of the worlds.

P'Ache

The Wilds

Solace

Audiode

Update Metas

I have updated all of the Metas really recently, so I'm going to consider this complete.
