Summer Camp Reading Challenge 2024
This year's Summer Camp was hard for me. Not because of the prompts. Those were roughly the same in difficulty as last year's. As I expected, what I thought was the easiest theme became the hardest - just like last year. But I knew Summer Camp would be hard this year because of private issues. I knew I wouldn't be able to focus as much as I would like to. In the end, I could write all 42 articles, but they don't feel as good as the articles I wrote last year. I'm still happy because I was able to flash out my second continent and the species that live on that continent.
I always struggle with myths, legends, and rituals. What I write always looks flat to me. Before I started reading articles from the others, I was thinking about how I could improve one of mine, and it improved some, but I still need to work on my skills to write articles that look and feel attractive.
The other article type I have a problem with is military conflict. I just can't understand why people go to war for whatever reason instead of discussing it with the other party and working together to reach a common goal. Because of this, it always takes me a lot of time to come up with a situation that can warrant a war.
So, these are the article types I've selected for this year to read about.
Myths/legends:
Rituals:
Military conflicts:
My plan for the next half year, probably more, based on my current writing "speed", is to write about one part of the continent I've started to work on during Summer Camp. I have already written a summary article about the place and plan to write a similar one about the species living there. These two articles will help me focus on the theme. Then, detailed articles about everything will follow.
Thank you so much for the feature, I appreciate it! <3
