As many of you might know, I have been administering a monthly word list challenge for the last several years. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I am having to give that up. This is leaving many 365'ers, that like the inspiration, in a bind. If anyone is willing to take on the duties of administering this challenge, please reply to let me know. I will be happy to get you the list of contacts, and help you get started. The next list will need to go out the end of December, for the January words.
If you are unsure what list I am referring to, you can find the latest post, for December,here.
@debrac
So sorry to hear that you have to give up this awesome challenge. I have participated on occasion and it really does help with ideas when inspiration eludes us.
I would be willing to take on this task for a bit ... not sure if I would attain your dedication though!
Yes, please do send the list and any tips and tricks my way. I assume that I should start asking for word requests around the 20th of every month (about 10 days before the list goes out) even in the busy December holiday season?
@farmreporter Thank you so much for being willing to take this on, Wendy. I am sure that you will make many 365'ers very happy if you will take the list on, at least temporarily. I will do some work at cleaning up my list of participants, and try to make sure that the inactive accounts are removed. If you could shoot me an e-mail, I can then e-mail the list back to you. My e-mail address is trdlimages@outlook.com.
Yes, the next word requests would go out the end of December. I tried giving everyone 7 days to reply. I would send out the list the day before the last day of the month. This time, I asked for requests on Tuesday last week, and sent the list on Tuesday this week. I did this, as I found that many participants time difference is such that if I sent it on the last day of the month, it was already 1/2 way into the 1st day of the next month, for many 365'ers. You might want to experiment and see what works best for you and gets the best results.
Since my situation has changed somewhat, I will be checking in here from time to time. I just won't be renewing my Ace Membership, since I think it will be sometime before I am able to get back to taking photo's of that magnitude, so if you need help with anything, feel free to reach out.
@debrac i want to thank you for all the work you have done with the word list. so many times, it has been this list that has kept me going, given me inspiration when i have simply not had a thought in my head as to what i was going to shoot that day. I believe, for many who do not participate on a daily basis, it could be the same. by receiving this list in my email, i looked, i thought, i contemplated and then i came back. so a HUGE thank you for keeping in touch and for all the hard work you have done. hope all is well with you but completely understand how life can be complicated and full. take care and thank you again - and wishing you happy holidays!
@farmreporter Hi Wendy, Here is the current contact list for the monthly word challenge. Thanks for taking this on for a bit. Feel free to contact me, if you need.
Sorry for the notification everyone. I just want to make sure that everyone that should be notified of the challenge, is notified.
@debrac - Thank you Debra for all your hard work keeping this challenge going for so long. I feel bad for not being more involved in it this year! I hope whatever is causing you to step down is only temporary! I wish all the best to you in the New Year!
@debrac@farmreporter Thank you both for administering the list... I do look at it often for inspiration! Debra, hope your circumstances improve, and I wish Wendy the best as she steps up to lead!
Tweets ahoy!

I am sure that I am not alone in the 365 community wishing to thank you for your years of hosting this awesome challenge!
My plate is full and my helath at this time does not allow me to help.

The first for taking this challenge off me back in Jan 2014, it's amazing to think this has been going since mid 2012.
Secondly, thank you for continuing to run this challenge every month since.
