== How it works ==
* Write a 1-post entry based around the week’s theme, chosen each Wednesday.* Post it, remembering to include either the tag [https://pnut.io/tags/WedC #WedC] (preferred) or [https://pnut.io/tags/WednesdayChallenge #WednesdayChallenge] if your muse isn’t being helpful and you need to fill space!
=== More answers to questions ===
* An extended version can be posted elsewhere (e.g. your own blog).
* Though the challenge starts on Wednesday there are no pressures to hit deadlines - writing runs for the full week. You don’t even have to publicize your involvement, if writing is the thing that spreads your toes.
* Given the 256-character post limit most people will use #WedC. The original #WednesdayChallenge tag was abbreviated in response to the inevitable observation that 14 superfluous character characters of tag is silly.
