Thanks For Joining Us

[enemytosleep]

Though July may be over, the sunshine_challenge has no deadline for any of our prompts; feel free to answer any prompt or comment as you discover it. There are definitely still folks answering the prompts now, so feel free to check back on the prompt posts for any shares you haven’t yet seen.

If you have already answered the challenges and would like to follow any new replies that may come in, you can choose to “Track This” by clicking the little bell icon at the bottom of each prompt post. That will then send you an alert anytime someone new comments there. If you are finding the sunshine_challenge after July, please go ahead and attempt any of the challenges that appeal to you and reply to anyone there. We all came here to have fun and meet new folks on DW, so don’t be shy simply because you found us at a later date.

♥ You can find all of the 2022 challenges linked at the Master List.

♥ If you create any fanworks, feel free to add them to our AO3 Collection (and don't forget to check out what others have already added as well).

There were a lot of thoughtful, creative entries this year, so I would like to call this challenge a success! If you haven’t had a chance to investigate everything just yet, please take some time to go back and enjoy them now. The goal of the sunshine_challenge is to provide a little bit of sunshine to the community here, which we hope to do in the form of prompting discussions between community members and shining a spotlight on all the creative souls who call DW home. We hope we made your 2022 just a little bit brighter.

Stay subscribed to this page so that you don’t miss us in 2022. ♥ Be sure to follow snowflake_challenge for their January event. Take care!

Initially, I had doubts if I could come up with something appropriate to the prompts; but, in the end, I wound up having a very busy and interesting month. (Still got more to post, in fact.) Thank you for running the Challenge again this year!

I really love seeing how many different takes people have on things (and enjoy the many different shares from poetry to visual art to fannish shares and and and).

Thank you for your wonderful help and support, Riella ♥

I try to be mindful of visual artists and participants when we get the prompts ready, and I have been so delighted with this color series! Yay to more incoming!!!

[bluedreaming]

Thanks so much for running again this year! I'm still slowly answering prompts, but it's great fun!

[greerwatson]

I'm so glad people have been enjoying it. :D

And ... the first part of Opal is here.

[extrapenguin]

Thank you for running this! And also, huge thanks for giving us a new prompt list every year – I know it's an extra thing to do, but I really appreciate it. And having the themes include some real deepcuts was nice as well.

[enemytosleep]

I'm so glad folks are enjoying it again this year. ♥

[enemytosleep]

I'm glad folks enjoy the breathing room in the prompts. It can be a challenge for sure, but I always love seeing the variety of responses!

[actiaslunaris]

I have one last prompt to get to, once I have time, but meanwhile, I want to express my thanks. I loved all the prompts this year, all the ways they could be answered (even if I was a rebel), and how it was so nice to have alternate prompts to work with, as well. Thank you so much for this challenge; I find it so fun to participate.

Every mod is wonderfully encouraging! I have so much love and gratitude for how much they pour into this community; that is so rare to find, like the gemstones of this year's prompts. All my thanks, forever and always.

[enemytosleep]

This comment really hit me and I thank you for it. It's been ... not a good year personally, and it means a lot to me that folks found enjoyment in this group. I am very grateful for the mods who helped me prepare the prompts and respond to everyone. Also, much love for the Ouran glomp ♥
