This is my first Summer Camp. Next month, just before my birthday, I will have been on WA for a year. I am having a blast with these prompts.

The chase between the Smirnov twins on their M-9 Kestrels vs. Adi on her Ozymandias 6000 was one of my favorite scenes to write. It's a shame that the Smirnov's bikes were destroyed in the chase.

And here's the article for Summer Camp 2026 Prompt #30, Hyperspace , a fundamentally misunderstood law of nature in the galaxy because every known galactic civilization has inherited it. No one knows who discovered it or developed the technology to fly through it. That's why many call it "jumping to lightspeed" when travel through hyperspace takes one must faster than the universal constant. It's also why many spacers and smugglers find making journeys in shorter distances rather than shorter times more impressive. When traveling at relativistic speeds, time becomes meaningless as you violate the fundamental relationship between cause and effect. Explore the space inside the endless, 1-sided loop of the galaxy and meet the horror that came from just around the next bend of spacetime.

This one was fun--when I heard the prompt "An abandoned building shrouded in mystery" on the Twitch stream, I immediately thought about the The Ancient Mage Tower in my world, but that seemed 1) too on-the-nose, and 2) like a really big undertaking (as I intend to eventually thoroughly rework all those articles and flesh out a lot more of them). Besides, it needed to be something new!

Ultimately, I decided to revisit an idea I set aside last year: a dovecote--essentially, a big pigeon coop where avian couriers pick up and deliver messages. I started writing this evening, and the article got way too big, so I decided to split the ideas three ways. The first bit stayed in the main article, but I made the other two ideas stories that hang off the main article, and I took advantage of the Prose article type, to see how that worked! I really enjoy the flexibility in World Anvil!

If you have a moment, check out the stories linked from The Hush-Cote: Allowed to Lapse, and A Seven-Count.

Decided to do this

Decided to look at another world I have. Maybe get a few more like the one below.

As of today, I hit my goal of copper for Summer Camp 2026. Yesterday, I wrote this article, Mugen‑mon , for prompt #23 and today, unexpectedly, I finished an article for prompt #30, Hyperspace . It's hard to express how good it feels to set out a goal, even an easy one like this one, and get it done. With a broken brain, I did it. And I've gotten so much positive feedback that I haven't had in so long. Thank you, fellow campers. I love seeing all of your creative stuff and I appreciate you all in ways I cannot say. I'll share the block for the next article tomorrow or Tuesday. Happy camping!

Way behind, way way behind

Have fallen really behind in Summer Camp. Just not feeling it this year for some reason. Still, got this together:
  "What have I done?"

Man, Summer Camp is fun! We get some provocative prompts, and I thought I'd go a little sideways on this one: "a fictional character some believe to be real". I leaned into something that occupied my little brain when I was a little kid--that sometimes "nobody" might refer to "somebody".
In this story, I went maybe a little creepy with a bogeyman vibe....

Fourth article for #SummerCamp2026, 1st Summer Camp article for this world. This world is a reboot of my old one, where I hope to massively improve. Enjoy a secret hidden in its depths known to only a select few and the gods themselves. The edge of the world is real...especially when something prevents you from going any further.

So, I fell behind on my global updates because this article that I did for Summer Camp Prompt #13: A War that Expanded Territory, and it's the centerpiece of the current story in my campaign - The Kalee-Yam'rii Conflict. It also made me realize I missed a key event in my timeline when writing the articles for Qymaen jai Sheelal and Gekikō‑butai, so I had to go back and edit them. Now that I've taken the time to do that, we're back on track. Happy camping!

Finally had time to write my second SC article! This week and the next I've got lots more free time so I'll be able to put out some more as well. I can already see some room for expansion with this one, but I'm happy with it as is. Maybe I'll add another section at some point but I'm in no rush

3rd article for #SummerCamp2026. I've marked it as 18+ given its discussion on fertility, I am actually unsure if it needs to be marked that way, there isn't anything explicit, I think. Anyway, the moon, werewolves, and fertility, what isn't there to love!? I plan to update this article to include non-fertility related effects as well (added to to-do list).

Summer Camp Ready!

I finally am back and ready to destroy!!

Actually though, I am so happy to be back on WA, this time with a structured plan of attack instead of just throwing word spaghetti at the wall. I'm ready to write, I'm ready to get feral, and I'm so excited to post my special announcement for real!

There's still a lot to do, so it will be a long way out, but just thinking about it makes me itch to write!

Have an incredible Summer Camp one and all, and best of luck! Hammer time!

Summer Camp is next weekend? My EIGHTH Summer Camp??? Oh my goodness! But hey, at least I've finished my homework nice and early!

I've got lots of prep and planning left to do behind the scenes, but I have my ideas flowing around all of the themes, and the feral energy is building and building... WHAT WILL WE WRITE NEXT WEEK??? WHAT WONDERS WILL JULY BRING US ALL?

I look forward to finding all of that out together!

I won't be going for another Iron Gorge year, but I will still be streaming all Summer Camp! My tentative schedule is outlined in my prep article in week 3 :)

Welcome to Camp Chill! Come join!

Once next month starts up, one of the biggest challenges here on World Anvil does as well! Summer Camp is a month-long prompt bonanza. It's a creative marathon! To help people all the way to the finish line, I started a camp called Camp Chill. Camp Chill is about sustainable Summer-Camping, preserving our joy, and having a great time together. You can pledge for any badge you want and still be Camp Chill. We've all got our own pace! 

Camp Chill was started in 2022, with a set of guidelines written to help people enjoy a Summer Camp where the fire stays lit all month. We're bringing the s'mores, the ice cream for when it gets too hot, fire extinguishers for potential burnout, and we pledge, above all, to have a good time!


If you want to join up, all you have to do is decide to join! A lot of people have chosen to add the awesome badge Rin Garnett made to their pledge or elsewhere on their world. You can do that too by using the ID 4574878. It's not required, but c'mon! It's a badge! Who doesn't love a badge?

I'll share the camp chill tenets below:

  • Remember the prompts are suggestions, not requirements
  • Write what you're passionate about, leave what you aren't
  • Relax when you feel tired
  • Fight off any pesky brain-squitos trying to make you doubt your work
  • Don't abandon your non-summer camp goals! Write that article you're itching to write, even if it doesn't fit any prompts

Will you be joining Camp Chill? What're your Summer Camp goals? What will you be doing to rest and recharge during July?
