So I stumbled upon one of these challenge list things. I saw Steff do one of these challenges before and was indeed intrigued by it and wanted to copy or model something after it. I’m not a big share my own life on the internet thing and hate to be too meta about my universe or myself. If I weren’t so adverse to analysing things I’d read something into that! 
However, following on from ‘writing begets writing’ I sought out something like the challenge list that I could adapt for writing purposes. Here’s one I think can be tweaked to best fit my little fanfic corner of the universe. Rather than a letter, I’m going to write a blog post or a prompt like response to these write a letter challenges written by the user Mikey here.
I’m not pretending or deluding myself from the outset that I am going to write one of these every day. I’d love to but time is not always available to do so and I want this to be an enjoyable challenge. That’s not going to work. (Mind, I see that there’s a real world counterpart to this akin to NaNo which is a cool concept in and of itself but for now, I’m gonna do this)
Nevertheless, I intend to work my way through the list of different letters in a Star Trek universe setting and fashion, in character and in universe. Who knows what will come of this. I hope you enjoy the fruits.
