Grow, learn, and become a better writer 2016 with these fun challenges.

ALL-IN

ALL-IN is a digital competition that challenges Hoosiers to think, read, talk and DO. By issuing virtual challenges like “try food from a different country” to “give a stranger a book,” ALL-IN inspires us to learn more about Indiana, connect with each other, and make our state even better. Anyone can go ALL-IN by visiting IndianaHumanities.org/ALL-IN and completing the challenges individually or with friends and family. Use the digital scorecard to keep track of which challenges you’ve finished and which ones you still need to do. From the ALL-IN website, it’s also easy to post your results to Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, and see who else in your area is completing challenges.

The 2016 Reading Challenge

We all know to be better writers, we must be better readers. The best way to be a better reader is by taking Butler MFA’s popular course “Reading Like a Writer.” Since it’s not offered this semester, consider a challenge that will force you from your usual bookshelf. Dozens are floating around the internet like this one from Modern Mrs. Darcy. Click here for a printable PDF.
