Write Fifteen Minutes a Day (WFMAD) Challenge So Far

So far this month, I have been participating in the Write Fifteen Minutes a Day Challenge. This is supposed to be done in August, but a friend of mine organized a September version online and invited me to join in.

I have been planning on running a Gamma World RPG campaign, or maybe a Dark Sun campaign, or some kind of campaign, for ages now, but I had never really bothered to think it through. I took this opportunity to start fleshing out some details for my setting, starting with the name.

I have also been asking people for feedback (thanks for the feedback I've gotten so far!), but when I ask people about what else I should write about, but people don't know enough about the setting and what's percolating in my brain to ask for it. So here are the posts I've written so far, and some others I'm thinking about writing. Let me know which of these you'd like to see!

By the way, I should take this opportunity to say that I plan on going back and revising some of my past posts, so I apologize to those of you who have already read those posts and will be missing the new information. For instance, I've been meaning to add that energy weapons in Berk are called "Kenners," but I never got around to doing so. I plan on revising the past posts to start calling energy weapons "Kenners," so don't be confused!

Also, should I add the Who's Who and Sample PCs section separately, or as revisions to the original, relevant posts? For instance, should I include the character of Tsar Boris, the Russian Werewolf commander of the constantly-besieged Macarthurvich Station, to the Russian Werewolf post, or should I have a separate Who's Who post that lists all such characters? Or should each character have his or her own post?

Let me know what you think! And here's to writing 15 minutes a day!
