Woche 2:
Mini-Meta
Hier bekam ich erst einmal einen Schock. Zwei Aufgaben in einer. Und als ich mit den Kategorien voran kam und die Fokusse auch dadurch immer mehr zunahmen kam ich erst recht ins Schlucken wegen der Mini-Meta. Nun, ein kaum verwandtes Mini-Meta aus der letzten Vorbereitung zu WE hatte ich noch. Und für jetzt habe ich dann gerade ein Mini-Meta zu Addelirazar erstellt, da ich zu denen auf jeden Fall etwas schreiben werdeKategorien
Andere Welten
Ja, es gibt sehr viele schöne Welten hier in WA. Und viel zu wenig Zeit, alle zu verfolgen und aktiv zu lesen. Welten, die ich wohl am meisten hin und wieder lese und inspirierend finde sind: Irda Samtho Noevalne Lothrea Koria the sixth kingdom Elaqitan NaharinWoche 3: Homepage Review

Inhaltsverzeichnis
Hui. Du warst da bei deinen Hausaufgaben sehr viel fleißiger (und ausführlicher) als ich :D Ich drück dir auf jeden Fall die Daumen für World Ember und hoffe, dass du dein Ziel erreichen wirst.
Hätte ich die Zeit lieber dann in WE gehabt... . Na zumindest half mir die Ausführlichkeit bei meinen Zielen für 2023 und im Endeffekt noch 2024. Aber danke, hat ja tatsächlich geklappt ^^. GW gleichfalls, hat ja auch bei dir gereicht.
Ja, aber ganz knapp. Mit 19 Worten drüber und das wirklich auf die letzte Minute :D aber hey, geschafft ist geschafft. Mir ist leider auch die Zeit davon gelaufen. Aber egal. Jeder Artikel zusätzlich ist schließlich ein Gewinn :) Ich drück dir die Daumen für 2024 (und sorry für die späte Reaktion. Januar war stressig.)
