The Sunshine Challenge is a summer take on the Snowflake Challenge! The prompts are of a different type and more broad, sort of conceptual, but they work as either blog post prompts or fanwork prompts ^^ It's got a smaller participant base than Snowflake, but hopefully it can keep spreading to more people who'll decide to join :3
Some of the spring events I'm looking forward to are: - Fic Rec February/Femslash February this month (last year there was a hashtag on Mastodon for Fic Rec February and lots of recs, though I haven't seen anything pop up yet this year) - March Meta Matters, which is all about archiving meta essays! - Three Weeks for Dreamwidth, which runs from late April to early May. It's less centralised than Snowflake in that not everything takes place on the main comm (some communities have their own prompts/challenges), but the main comm will usually collect what's happening, and the goal is just to generate activity that's specific to DW! Lots of people set out to post daily on a specific theme. ysabetwordsmith made a blogging questionnaire that you can use to make daily posts, and made a primer in 2022 on how to take part. There's also a points gifting event where people who have the means will gift points to those who don't!
I'm hoping you didn't already know about that, otherwise that's a lot of information you didn't need! XD
