Sounds good! I edited it for you. :cool:

I changed my goal to world-building daily, and reporting on the thread every couple days to give myself accountability (hopefully none of you mind :dieshappy: You all can report often, too, if it'll help you. :D).

No...I'm working on the weekly challenge right now. If I finish that in less than forty minutes, I'll start working on these; if not, it'll have to wait until I've done some chores and stuff in real life. But I will try to work on them today or at least tomorrow!
