Challenges

Photo Challenge

@rickyjrx runs a weekly photo challenge on Steemit. Each week he comes up with an interesting theme and has been getting great entries. I find these challenges a great way to get inspiration for posts. There is also has a weekly prize which makes this one attractive.

Culture Vulture Challenge

I have been running a monthly Culture Vulture Challenge since last month, where you can feast on Culture from around the world. This is a Steemit community effort and I have been getting great help from @boxcarblue and some significant donations from other Steemit community members for the monthly prize fund. There are some exciting announcements to come for this challenge in the coming weeks. Stay tuned.
