Announcing a new blogging challenge from The Everyday Goth that I'm joining, in addition to the one I'm currently finishing.
- Post some pictures of a style you might wear if you didn't dress in Goth fashion, and talk about what attracts you to this style.

- Post a link to something you're saving up for. Threaten people so that they don't go buying it before you can.
- Write some goals for the coming year, blog or wardrobe or life related. Or, if you've done that, write about how they're coming along.
- Post some music you've been listening to lately, or make a playlist.
- Plan a meet up. You don't actually have to host it, but write about what you'd like to do if you could. Where would you go? How many people? What would you do?
- Plan a photo shoot. Who would model (you?) and what would the theme be? The clothes?
- How do you blog? Write a post on how post on your blog posts come about. What tools do you use, where do you find your visuals, how do you come up with your ideas?
- Ask for help with inspiration or problem-solving your in-progress DIY projects.

- Give Babybats some advice you wish you'd had.
- "This Day in Goth History."
- Post about the little things in your life that you've "Gothed up."

- What's in your DIY "to-do" pile? Or, what DIY materials have you still not found a purpose for?
- Name the stupidest piece of advice anyone has given to you about being a Goth. Counter it with some good ones.

- Take a stance: what makes someone a Goth?

- Write a review of a particularly good book you've read recently, album you've bought, or movie you've seen. Or tear apart a bad one.
