I’ve been seeing all those October prompt challenges and stuff (I guess adding “-tober” onto anything pretty much always works?) and I was thinking it would be fun to do one for this forum! It’s general purpose, so you can draw, write, craft, ETC for this! As long as you can see the connection between what you made and the prompt it’s good! It’s for December, so I can get feedback, collect prompts, and people can work ahead before this starts. Speaking of! Please give me prompts that I can add onto here! Try to avoid anything tied to a specific holiday, although prompts that seem to have nothing to do with the season are of course accepted! If you want a prompt linked to a specific day, let me know! Here’s what I have so far: I’ll fill up any empty spaces (if we end up with any) with a random word generator around mid-november, so that people can have the full card to work ahead with. I’m also thinking about making Bingo boards (or at least a generator) for people, like me, who might not feel up to doing something every day! Probably made with this website. Tell me what you think!

for the 14th, could we have "wish" as the prompt? (the 14th happens to be my birthday, so i'd like to get a prompt in- i think "wish" is disconnected enough from the concept of a birthday while still being whimsical and fun and shit like that.)

Oh fuck yes!!! I and some other folks talked about how fun a forum-wide writing event would be~
Here are some suggestions! Generally themed around wintery vibes.
- Ugly sweaters
- Keeping warm / warming up
- Baking
- Stars
- Joy
- Snow storm
- Ice skating
- Dreams
- Belief

Oooh those are some nice prompts! Here's what it's looking like so far! I tried to scatter prompts that I thought could be similar-ish in interpretation so they don't end up too close to each other! (and also put the longer ones in a place where it wouldn't bump into the other column haha, it's a bit random overall!) Also! Made a layout for the bingo boards, a traditional 5x5 and a small 3x3! I'll most likely have time on my hands to generate and input the prompts on theses for whoever requests them once late November / the start of December rolls around! :3

How about frozen, christmas tree, or reindeer? Frozen is a good one! And Reindeer are pretty neat animals, huh? Especially when contrasted with a snowy background! :-D I'm not so sure about adding Christmas Tree to the list, since it's tied so close to a religious holiday people may not participate in. I know that there's a couple of prompts already that lean into this being a holiday season, but I think as long as it's vague enough that someone could connect it to something not strictly religious, I feel like its fine, if that makes sense? I do like the idea of something like "forest" or "evergreen", if that's alright with you? I know snow is already on there but i think snow angels deserve their own spot! :] Ooooh this is also such a good one!! ^__^ Here's what the list is looking like so far! Also! I had the idea of making little award badges for people to put on their website / a profile somewhere once the event is done! I'll be customized with peoples usernames and specific achievements of course, these's are just mock ups :3 The little character on the last one is what I'm thinking I'll use as a mascot for this event? Maybe? Here's a doodle of them in full. (I also have no idea what to name them, something winter related? Suggestions welcomed haha!)

(I also have no idea what to name them, something winter related? Suggestions welcomed haha!) I think Apricity would be a good name! It's a word that means the warmth of sunshine in winter. I wanted a word related to light (the sun) due to Sparklepack, as well as the winter, for obvious reasons. It's also just a cute word.

I'm not sure about others, but I've always associated winter with long nights, so maybe that would be a good prompt? A lot of room for improv, can be something to do with romance or with horror.
