sunshine revival challenge #1

Challenge #1:

Journaling Prompt: Light up your journal with activity this month. Talk about your goals for July or for the second half of 2025.

Goals for July:
-write and complete at least one fic (writing more non-exchange fics has been a constant goal and I am hoping to get there)
-read three books (I keep checking books out but I need to actually finish them and find the motivation to read again)

Goals for the rest of the year
-get more organized (a constant struggle)
-try something new (vague but it's easier when it's broad)
-make more solid traveling plans
-try to write a little very day (I'm hoping consistent habits will be good for me)

Creative Prompt: Shine a light on your own creativity. Create anything you want (an image, an icon, a story, a poem, or a craft) and share it with your community

I made 5 summer-y icons. Anyone is welcome to save/use them! :)

Your goals sound a lot like mine! I keep starting books and then losing steam.

I love the icons; they're so vibrant!

Nice! I so get that - I want to get into them and just end up distracted. Here's hoping we can both stay more focused and finish our books.

Thank you! :D

Such lovely icons! 😍

Yes, if you write a little every day, you will feel accomplished and that will help to keep you going. ☺️

Thank you! :D

I was thinking along the same lines. I tend to want to want to do too much and then I end up not doing anything. Taking a bit by bit seems more realistic and I am hoping it will help keep me consistent. :D

Love the beachy icons! I grew up on the coast so they feel nostalgic for me. :D

[svgurl]

Thank you! Aww, I get that. When I think of summer I always think "beach". :D

[smallhobbit]

Good luck with those goals. I've had most of those goals over time and can confirm small regular steps were the best way to achieve them in my case.

Thank you! That is good to know! I have heard something along those lines but I think I've always wanted to do everything all at once and well, that's obviously not effective so I'm finally trying other strategies. :D

Very summery and lovely icons!

Getting organized for me feels like a whole "One must imagine Sisyphus happy" thing, haha
I wish you all of the luck in your endeavors!
Also, those are some lovely icons! They feel so lush and fresh.

I am a little in awe of people to whom it comes a bit more naturally!

Thank you, on the well wishes and the feedback on the icons! I'm glad you like them. :D
