Oops, I forgot to address Moth's suggestion of fewer challenges a year - hopefully she'll get notification of this comment too!
I think Dialj will continue along the same lines it's been running. We originally planned on a challenge every month/six weeks or so, but with total flexibility around that, so that we've had weekend challenges, and much longer challenges too. It all depends on how we feel about a particular idea at the time! I'd be reluctant to change that, because there's now another challenge that's just once a year, and it'd also mess with the way we originally started by playing with the "seasonal" challenge idea - though it was never meant to be limited to just special occasions, that was just something to hang our hats on...
Also, I see no reason why there wouldn't be a Christmas-y Dialj next year, at the very least! But as I said above, and to Moth, I was perhaps a bit hasty saying that participation was so very badly down - it wasn't nearly as bad last year as I felt it was the year before, partly due to lovely new people like yourself joining in to replace those who've left us...
I really must get on with those ezines, too... *g*
