❄️ Starmania "Snowflake Challenge" ❄️
A long time ago (2012), in another galaxy (LiveJournal) someone created a challenge called the Snowflake Challenge. The goal was to have a low-pressure occasion to share fandom joys, reflect on our fandom loves, and be inspired to make new things, all through the month of January.
I thought it could be nice to try and make a version of this here, and start the year with something nice and creative for all of us!
The main principle of the Snowflake Challenge are:
- Low pressure: there is no deadline, you can do the challenges at your own pace, all of them each week, some of them at the end, whatever you feel comfortable with. The point is to give us all a little nudge, not set homework.
- You post your answers in your own space, wherever that is (Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram...) and link them back if you want them to be shared here / included in the end-of-month recap.
- You can create as much or as little as you like. If your contribution is to reply to/boost other participants' posts, that's absolutely valued!
- Every type of answer is welcome.
- Self-promotion is encouraged! The original challenge borrows its name from the "Every snowflake's different just like you" song, and was meant to help fans to overcome their self-consciousness or shyness, and celebrate their own contributions to fandom!
Basically, the goal is to have fun together and start the year on a positive note!
Instead of a challenge a day or every other day, like the original, I think it would be a good start to do two challenges a week, posted every Sunday morning in January, starting tomorrow!
I hope you find it fun and perhaps inspiring! ❄️ See you tomorrow for the first challenge!
New year's resolution: trying new things!
Please help spread the word? ❄️🫶
