These are all of my accepted solo effort entries. A next to the title suggests that it got an editor's choice. A after the title shows it has a reference to Ohio in it. If it is in italics, it means that I liked the entry - though if it's not, that doesn't mean I disliked it. In each point, the entries are ordered by how I liked them against the other entries in that category. The first one is the one I liked best in that category.

I did a lot of biographies. Biographies are good, usually easy to research, easily structured, simple and sequential. I'd suggest biographies to any new person looking to write for h2g2. You may also notice I have whole chunks of entries about certain subjects - for instance, I once chose to do a bunch of entries about the Wright Brothers, then baseball, then US Presidents¹, then Ohio, etc... that's another thing that makes researching easier. Immersing yourself in a general topic at once makes it easier to research a few aspects. By the end of the baseball project, I could nearly write a whole entry in one sitting because I already knew what I needed to write from references and notes in other areas. It's a useful thing.

Those are just the easy ones, though... the ones I'm not proud of. I like the ones that are fun (there are three, by my reckoning) and specific. I'm trying to do more of those...

Ohio is the state I come from and live in, and I love the place, so I've written a few entries on it. Most of my entries have a reference to Ohio in them somewhere¹¹, or would not have been written if I were not an Ohioan, but the following entries I consider to be about Ohio.

• Legacies of the Wrights in Dayton, Ohio, Ohio, USA, Toledo 'War', The Kent State University Shooting, The State Flag of Ohio, The Canals of Ohio, Jonathan Dayton¹², Hang on Sloopy!, European Cities in Ohio.
