So, we get to do the bonus weekly challenge twice? Meaning: even though we already entered the contest, if we enter again this week it still counts?

Brilliant! :D

Goal: Bonus weekly challenge
Time Zone: CDT

I'm not going to set a personal goal, because nothing simple comes to mind, and I don't want to overstretch myself. :P

Post subject:  Re: Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Seven
Now wait a minute, I'm confused (I'll use the smiley to prove it: :? ). How do you define an article about my worlds history? Could I write about a specific race's history (the way I see it, that would be part of a world's history)? If not, please explain what you mean... :beg:

*mumbles* I should really do world-building... but I'd better not distract myself from Peter's Angel this week. :P So!

Personal goal: Finish at least 4 scenes on Peter's Angel
Timezone: CST

I have a personal goal after all, courtesy of a brilliant idea last night.

Personal Goal: Finish writing a five page synopsis for my new superhero series.

Entered the drabble just so I wouldn't forget to... ;)

Post subject:  Re: Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Seven
Wrote the first article on Dwarf history (have to split it up, no one wants to read a 10 mile long article on dwarf history...at least I don't think anyone does... :? ). Now on to write another history... :cool:
Author:  Elly [ May 16th, 2012, 2:50 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Seven
I finished the fractal step I was on, and started my next step. I think that is good progress, considering I've figured out my character's personality type (INFP) and got some leeway made. :D
Author:  RunningWolf [ May 17th, 2012, 12:10 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Seven
Okay, I wrote a first draft of a summary of Vadra's history, it isn't complete, really, but it touches on events from creation to (possibly) nigh-apocalyptic...does this count as an article? It's 568 words long...and it's sort of in timeline form except that I have no software for building timelines.
Author:  Constable Jaynin Mimetes [ May 17th, 2012, 9:42 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Seven
The synopsis isn't finished yet, but it's up to nine pages. ^_^
Still working on the whole drabble thing. I have a few, but they need to be typed up.
Author:  Elly [ May 17th, 2012, 9:57 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Holy Worlds Weekly Challenge - Week Seven
I wrote an article for it, about the creation of Zoriah.

I got four scenes done and am in the process of working past that. ^_^ It's been a successful week of writing full-time, and I've been enjoying it. :D
