This month im feeling super generous so at the end of the month there will be a prize raffle!!!
This will be following the basic rules of most Challenge threads
The "rules"
- Even though there is a prize, it's not based off anything other than posting each day. I wont be judging on how well it fits the theme or anything like that
- Interpret each topic in your own way.
- Try to play something that hasn't been played for that day.
- Catch up if you miss some days.
- Don't be shy about telling stories about your selection, and yet don't feel you have to elaborate on anything you post
- Have fun!
