Worldbuilding Awards 2026
Everything for the Worldbuilding Awards 2026 event on World Anvil from all of my worlds. From the submissions, nominations, and any badges and awards, are all listed here.
The World Anvil Worldbuilding Awards Ceremony was on April 18th on Twitch!
However, as I learned from submitting to WAWA for the first time last year and seeing the kinds of articles that have won, including those from other events, I now feel that many of my articles don't quite live up to the same caliber. I know many of you like my articles (and Legends of the Dragonguard almost has 100 followers now!), and I know not to compare myself to others, but it's simply that most of my articles are incomplete. While my articles have the general idea down, and some have some a decent amount of detail, but I'd still like to add more to them. And some are just outdated and really need to be updated.
So, with that said, I've taken a look back at my articles through a new lens, and I don't think I have many that are actually complete enough that I feel like they would have a chance in WAWA. I know they don't have to be perfect or complete complete, but at a certain point, there is a level of quality (which is not really what I want to say but I don't know how else to word it) that is needed to compete effectively with others. There are still a lot of things I'd like to add and do to my articles that I don't think they'd do well right now in WAWA — for instance, I have recently started to rework the Dragonguard's article, and to improve the explaination on how exactly the organization works, so I do not feel like I should be submitting it this year. I also took quite a long break from worldbuilding over the past few months, so I did not have the time to polish things before submissions ended.
This year, I am only submitting a few things that I think could actually have a chance, have a good amount of detail, and a somewhat decent article design. Though the Emberscale Wyvern is kind of a large amount of text with no images, I really like the concept and the details describing the species, so I'm hoping it will be enough to at least get it nominated.

My Journey
AAHH, my 2nd time submitting to WAWA. This past year.. hasn't been the best; most of the World Anvil events didn't go as well as I had hoped, except for WorldEmber. Despite that, I still created some decent articles and, in fact, created a new world!However, as I learned from submitting to WAWA for the first time last year and seeing the kinds of articles that have won, including those from other events, I now feel that many of my articles don't quite live up to the same caliber.

Good luck! Tossing out good vibes!
Thank you! Best of luck to you as well!
