End of Year of Lore
7 years ago
Hi,
So this was my year of lore. I did a fair bit of writing, though a lot of it hasn't been posted. Most of what I wrote was aimed at anthologies. Two of those I didn't submit. One because it was too sad and the other because it was way over the word limit. Those are both on the 'I'll figure out something to do with these later' pile. Another was submitted, rejected, revised, and submitted to another anthology. Results aren't out for that one yet. *fingers crossed* A fourth was submitted to an anthology and accepted! A short vignette involving Sayen and Itu will be in Furnicate, by Red Ferret Press. Hopefully that will be available for purchase soon.
In other news, I posted a few things, most notably the start of my Lava God's Journey series. A lot more coming on that in the not too distant future as well. I've also made some progress on some other stories that I hope to get finished and posted.
But this 'year of lore' is going to end with a bang. World Anvil, the world building site, is having a marathon world building incentive in December. What they are calling Worldember. The discovery of World Anvil has already been an amazing thing to happen in my year of lore. In the trailer video for the site there was a brief glimpse at someone's article 'Lyra,' which shares the name of my primary fictional city. If that's not a sign from above I don't know what is.
Anyway, they have goals for this. A badge is earned for completing the challenge of 10k words written in the month. They have stretch challenges of 'novelist' for 50k words, and 'trilogy' of 150k. Damn I want that latter. If there's one thing I can do it's spin a fuck ton of world building. Let's go for it.
https://www.worldanvil.com/w/saffron-tygacat is the site. There's just a few fragments there currently. But damn I hope to run far. I've been focusing on polishing it up and remembering all of my old CSS skills. So yeah, that's the goal.
Next year will be the Year of Congruence. The city of Lapis Lazuli, the eccentric rich snow leopard demi-god.
