Sunshine Challenge

Check out the Master List to find links to all of the 2023 challenge posts.

Welcome to the sunshine_challenge! Our aim to provide a little bit of sunshine as everyone takes part in creating and sharing the content each prompt inspires.

We will post seven challenge prompts throughout the month of July. You are encouraged to complete as many of the prompts as you feel comfortable doing: whether that’s one, all seven, or some number in between! You can do them on your private journal or in public posts, the choice is yours. If you’re shy we have places for lurkers, too. We want you all to have fun and enjoy the challenge in whichever way works best for you (this includes swapping out prompts and themes that aren’t inspiring you! We encourage conversation and creativity here, so please do join the fun in whichever way suits you).

The sunshine_challenge is about celebrating the DW community and the awesome people in it. One way we can do that is by interacting with each other. Every time you visit the journal of a fellow participant and comment on what they're sharing, you are helping to grow this community and make it better. We all could use a little sunshine in our lives. ♥

Many of you here are familiar with the snowflake_challenge, and so a lot of what we will be doing here will be similar — if you aren’t familiar with Snowflake then please go subscribe to them right now! Our aim is to provide a low-key way to continue the fun and warm fandom feelings half-way through the year.

We will post seven challenge prompts throughout the month of July. Some will be pretty simple and straightforward, and some will be a little more involved. You are encouraged to complete as many of the prompts as you feel comfortable doing! You can do them on your private journal or in public posts: the choice is yours. If you’re shy we have places for lurkers, too. We want you all to have fun and enjoy the challenge in whichever way works best for you.

Although sunshine_challenge is being hosted on DW, if you don't have an account here, please feel free to comment anonymously and sign your (fan)name. You can also sign in with OpenID, which allows you to use your LJ (and other platform) credentials to comment. We want everyone to be able to participate, regardless of where you hang your fandom hat.

Your 2019 moderators include me, enemytosleep, as well as the wonderful autobotscoutriella, oldtoadwoman, and sodium_amytal.

A very special thank you to cornerofmadness, respoftw, and sharpiefan for their help in prepping everything for the 2019 event!

The sunshine_challenge is about celebrating fandom itself and the awesome people in it. One way we can do that is by interacting with each other. Every time you visit the journal of a fellow participant and comment on what they're sharing, you are helping to create this community. Fandom is about love: love of books and writers, movies and actors, music and musicians, comics and their creators, etc., but it's also about being with and appreciating other fans, and letting them know they matter. We all could use a little sunshine in our lives. ♥
