bookblatherHello, everyone, and welcome to our October Challenge!
My brother, whose birthday is in October, told me recently that it annoyed him that October is entirely about spooky things. And I thought, you know what, that's right, there's lots of other things going on in October! So in honor of my brother, this year we will be doing Pasteltober.
Choose from one of the many October challenge prompt lists- I've linked to a selection below, but feel free to use any that you find useful. You do not have to use the prompts in order, nor do you have to post them on the relevant days. For every story you write using a prompt off your list, you'll receive one novelty bead per 500 words or fraction thereof, PLUS one novelty bead per number of prompts you've used so far. So, for example, if you've written one story, you'll receive one extra bead. If you've written two stories, you'll get two, and so on. All stories for this challenge may also use graffiti and pastel prompts.
You do not need to use only one list, but extra novelty beads will only accrue per list. Please specify which list you're using in each story so the novelty bead mod does not lose her mind. Again.
You do not need to finish the lists, but let's see how far we can collectively get! Ask any questions here, and happy October!
Sample Lists:
1) Flufftober
2) Unofficial Kinktober (as the official account does not appear to have made a list)
3) Whumptober
4) Creeptober
5) Fictober
6) Angstober
