Admin Post: "Analysing Arda" Challenge Extension

[dawn_felagund]

Normally, I try to post a reminder about upcoming challenge deadlines a week before the due date so that anyone who wanted to participate but the challenge slipped their mind--especially at this time of year, with its many exchanges and other events!--has time to complete a response in time to collect a stamp. However, I have just returned from traveling overseas, and I just didn't get the reminder posted in time, so I'm extending the deadline for the Analysing Arda nonfiction challenge to July 15, which gives potential participants more than a week to complete and post their entries. (This is also the date that the new challenge will be posted.) Any responses posted to the archive (or here, or on LJ, if applicable) will receive a stamp if posted on or before the 15th.

As always, late responses are very welcome but won't receive participant stamps. (There is no deadline for commenter stamps.)

Check the Challenges page on our website for more about the Analysing Arda challenge, challenge guidelines, and prompt ideas.

A few essays and resources have been posted--check out the Analysing Arda challenge entries posted so far here!

Finally, I have not done the stamps yet for last month's challenge due to the aforementioned overseas trip and the chaos that is the end of the year in a U.S. public school, but hopefully I'll have positive news to report on this front by the time the next challenge is posted. (Which, by the way, is one of my favorites of this year's challenge schedule and in honor of the SWG turning thirteen at the end of the month!)

I am so glad there's an extension. Real life has sucked and I have three words written at the moment, so thanks!

You're welcome--I'm glad it will come in handy! :)

Oh, I really appreciate this extension, thank you - the little brainstorming nonsense I'd written on the first day is all I have down so far (thanks to an overabundance of real life). Going to make full use of the extra time :)

I think this time of year presents an overabundance of real life for many of us! :) I'm glad the extension will be helpful.
