October Words of the Month

September 30th, 2017



MY APOLOGIES THAT THE LINKS ARE NOT WORKING - I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THE SAME AS I DO FOR THE WEEKLY SH*T LIST AND IT WORKS FOR THAT.
WILL TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG SHORTLY, BUT UNTIL THEN - WHAT YOU CAN DO IS COPY THE LINKS AND INSERT IT INTO THE ADDRESS BAR ABOVE (AFTER YOU HAVE DELETED THE https;// adress FIRST, OF COURSE!!)

October is here once again, and with it, a whole new list of words. This month focuses on Halloween and everything scary.

The theme months have been so popular that we decided to re-introduce the Friday F-word challenge, which is no longer running, for the month of October. Please note that I have put the tag beside the f-word so that you can go check out the photos that were used at that time.

Two new technical challenges are also introduced this month. The first is ‘Make yourself scary’ and the link to the original is:

The second one is ghostly effect and there were two challenges that I found. They are:

and

I also discovered an interesting link that may help you with the skull word. It pays tribute to the work of Graeme Stevens and those who attempt to replicate it.

This challenge is a great place for those who occasionally lose their mojo and need ideas or inspiration. It is also a great challenge for those who want to go that extra nine yards to do a full month of words. The choice is yours!

Don't forget to tag your photos with oct17words so that we can all follow them.

Feel free to do one word, a few, or all of them. They can be done in any order you choose, or on the suggested day. Pop in daily, or just on occasion. This is your challenge, and your project. Until next month, enjoy!
