September challenge

Okay teamies, it's time for a new challenge! I already revealed that we were going to explore the mysterious and the macabre. I challenge you all to make something that is true to the spirit of Edgar Allan Poe.

Interpretation is completely free. A corpse under the floor, a raven, something that ticks, a black cat, whatever you like! There are no rules regarding material or techniques, I'm pretty sure you will all challenge yourselves.

The deadline is October 3rd. I wanted to have the deadline at a full moon but unfortunately that doesn't happen until October 23rd. ;) At least we can have it at midnight, EST.

Good luck and think spooky thoughts.

"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. " Edgar Allan Poe

  3. Oh, I sincerely hope I can finish something for this challenge! Poe is one of my favourite authors. Asa, I started reading him at a relatively young age, too!
