Reviving an old tradition

I'm concidering reviving an old tradition here at
Conlang.  In days gone by three or four different
members have produced weekly texts consisting of a
series of (often) themed sentences presented for
vocabulary improvement in our various langs.  I want
to revive the Weekly Vocabulay exercises.

I'm concidering a slightly different format.  What I'm
concidering is a series of (usually) themed sentences,
as before, but this time grouped for degree of
language development and focused for concultural
periods.

Here's how it'd work.

In the past, I noticed that a majority of sentences
offered were simple first person declaratives.  I'd
make an effort to include other sentence types, varry
the verb forms and tenses and include 2nd and 3rd
person actors.  I'd attempt to offer a range of
difficulties which would include simple declaratives
for the new language and compound-complex with a
variaty of clause types for the older languages.

Conculturally, I would try within the theme to offer a
group of sentences suitable for primitive,
ancient/medieval, modern and space-age societies.  For
example, if the theme were time, the primitive section
would feature sentences using terms like day, night,
dawn, moon.  The ancient/medieval section would
include terms like noon, afternoon, hour, minute,
century.  The modern/space-age section would include
terms like nanosecond, galactic year, universal time,
time zone, etc.

Are others interested in this service?  If there is
interest I'll be glad to supply.
