This is so lovely. Art challenges are the best. Every year I look forward to Februllage. It's an international month long collage sprint with daily themes.

Kim, aside from inspiring so many artists to create beautiful work, you also just gave me an idea. 😉💜✨

This was a really uplifting read. I'm more of a language lover than an art maker but this has inspired me to think of a language related challenge I could set myself. Thank you

I used to love the idea of joining in NaNoWriMo, but I found it was too much of a commitment. But smaller things like Beth Kempton does a Tiny Poem a day - I loved. I think we could definitely use more writing challenges in this space. I would join. Glad to hear it resonated with you!

I just realized you said “languages”. Not “writing.” ☺️

:) no problem. I hadn't heard of the Tiny Poems. NaNoWriMo definitely seems like an incredible commitment
