Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge: Week Forty

RunningWolf · **Posted:** December 30th, 2012, 11:17 am

Welcome fellow questers!

Your challenge for week forty is write an essence map of Holy Worlds. (doing it for each forum doesn't count as doing the whole challenge multiple times, but if you represent each forum and the podcast and blog with at least six metaphors each, extra points will be awarded)

Remember, in order to receive points for completing the weekly challenge, you MUST declare it by Monday at midnight.

As always...

The Rules wrote:

1. All challenges must be declared completed by midnight Saturday in your timezone (please specify your timezone when you sign up).
2. All challenges (personal or weekly) must be declared by midnight Monday in your timezone.
3. Personal challenges cannot be repeated.
4. The organizer reserves the right to veto any challenges that seem too simple. (i.e. writing a sentence)

If this is your first time on one of these quests, you'll need to see the initiation pamphlet.

Also, I would like to remind everyone that any weekly challenge pieces that are posted on the forum will be eligible to be featured in our newsletter. Please post a link in this thread if you would like it to be considered. So far, we do not have any submissions for the next feature.

If you could write your sign-up post in a similar format to the following, it would be appreciated:

I don't know how you could "not squeal," Zoe. I knew you were going to, hence the use of "inevitable."

Woot for Fire and Ashes!

Uh – nothing in particular...my family is doing a funny sort of Christmas thing for Jay, based on the fourth day of Christmas, and the the thing for the eighth day is an eight verse poem with eight lines in each verse.

You have missed nothing.

Rachel Newhouse · **Posted:** January 1st, 2013, 10:55 pm

Oh, okay. That's lovely!

Constable Jaynin Mimetes · **Posted:** January 2nd, 2013, 1:43 am

Hmmph. If I don't finish this book by tomorrow I'll have to default since I'll be gone all weekend. I've never had so much trouble with an ending before!!

Constable Jaynin Mimetes · **Posted:** January 3rd, 2013, 12:52 am

I almost forgot this! My personal goal is complete. Barely. * falls over in exhaustion *

See ya'll on Monday.

AzlynRose · **Posted:** January 3rd, 2013, 11:19 am

Woot! Good job, Katie!

Mistress Kidh · **Posted:** January 3rd, 2013, 12:33 pm

Personal goal finished. And since Patrick posted it I guess I might as well link to it... HW poem.

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** January 3rd, 2013, 1:00 pm

Goal complete.

Finished Weekly Challenge. (And the fact that the Fantasy side has more than 258 elements and the other two have only six has nothing to do with how much I use them respectively...I just didn't remember the challenge correctly.

) I did at least six metaphors for all three forums, the blog, and the podcast.

Great job Juliet, that's awesome!

I'm sorry you misunderstood/misremembered the challenge.

But I'm glad you got it done at least.

*still has to do the blog part of his minimal and horrible essence map for the challenge*

RunningWolf · **Posted:** January 4th, 2013, 9:07 pm

Weekly challenge and personal goal complete.

Lady Katharina · **Posted:** January 5th, 2013, 8:03 pm

*comes in panting and out of breath* I did it! After a marathon afternoon of writing and word wars (only three

), I finished my chapters.

Aratrea · **Posted:** January 5th, 2013, 9:59 pm

Personal goal finished! Was a lot harder than I expected and involved me writing over 7,000 words today, but it's done...

Leandra Falconwing · **Posted:** January 5th, 2013, 10:35 pm

Personal goal complete, and now I can say that the first draft of Gemini City is done!

Congrats!

Rachel Newhouse · **Posted:** January 6th, 2013, 12:18 am

Personal goal completed! I got started on Peter's Ally on the first as planned. I haven't done much with it since, but I got a very good start on it that day.

AzlynRose · **Posted:** January 6th, 2013, 9:53 am

Oh no, I failed my goal.

Or on Saturday I could have rearranged what I had into a short essence map, but I forgot.

Zoe M. Scrivener · **Posted:** January 6th, 2013, 4:43 pm

This week is now closed. Great job, everyone, and congratulations to those who finished a novel draft this week!

Scoreboard. (New and Improved!)
