Unofficial Vocal Challenges: October 2025
These Are The Challenges Set By Vocal Creators In October 2025
Introduction
This list of unofficial Vocal challenges will grow as I find them, so it will be short when this is first published.
If you have a challenge that is current this month, please add it as a comment, and then I will add it to the main body of the text.
I won't say who the authors are because it should be the challenge that attracts you, and by clicking through to the challenge creator will get a read.

How I Create My Vocal Poems
Introduction When I started in my current job, I had used Excel, but I was not an expert by any means. I needed to support my department in a lot of ways, which I had never had to before, so I did a lot of searching on Google, and that helped me gain the skills and experience I needed to become an expert.

Merriam Webster - Word of the day: Tranche refers to a division or portion of a whole. World Contact Day is commemorated every year on March 15. It is a unique observance held globally to focus on communicating with extraterrestrial life and exploring the possibility that intelligent beings may exist beyond Earth. World Contact Day inspires people to invoke their curiosity and spend time thinking about the universe and the mysteries surrounding it. What is the “Ides of March”? According to the Roman calendar, the Ides are a monthly occurrence. In March and other months with 31 days, the Ides always falls on the 15th; it falls on the 13th in months with 30 days. The Ides traditionally marked the arrival of the new Moon and was cause for celebration. The word “Ides” is derived from Latin, meaning “to divide.” Mothering Sunday in 2026 falls on Sunday, March 15. Mothering Sunday, celebrated in the United Kingdom and Ireland, occurs on the fourth Sunday of Lent, which is exactly three weeks before Easter. Unlike the fixed-date Mother's Day in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia, Mothering Sunday’s date changes each year according to the Christian liturgical calendar. On March 15, 2026, several notable observances and events are celebrated: Dumbstruck Day: A day to express frustration. Everything You Think is Wrong Day: A day to challenge and celebrate wrong beliefs. International Day Against Police Brutality: A day to raise awareness and advocate against police violence. My look at today, March 15, 2026 below:

How Supply Chain Disruptions Affect Aircraft Parts Availability
Aircraft operations depend on the steady supply of replacement parts, components and maintenance materials. Airlines, maintenance providers and aviation service companies depend on a steady supply of aircraft parts to keep fleets operating safely and efficiently. However, global supply chains are complex networks involving manufacturers, distributors, logistics providers, and regulatory authorities. When disruptions occur within this system, the availability of aircraft parts can quickly become limited.

A Transparent Look at Vocal Challenges and Top Stories
Almost three years ago, we shared a resource article that served as a place for people to suggest new challenge prompts. We thought it would be a good idea to refresh that thread, and take the opportunity to answer a few common questions about top stories, how challenges are judged and how submissions are reviewed.

Hey Mike I fell behind on my own schedule, but here’s the first of the two October prompts I wanted to offer. A Halloween horror challenge :) https://smartdealfinderx.top/writers/unofficial-challenge-more-howls-for-halloween%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E This is a simple prompt for people to write any werewolf horror. No hard limits on word count, but sweet spot is between 500-2000. (3) 5 dollar tips available to winners, and every entry can receive a bonus prize of critical feedback of the writer opts in. Thanks for compiling these challenge hubs :)
Really like how you offer all these challenges. Gives all a chance.
Thanks for all that you do in our Vocal community, Mike!
Thank you, Mike. I did not do well last month, so I will have to fret on my bike this month. You do everyone such a great service by seeking these outputs and putting them in one spot. Hats off to you, my friend.
Thanks for doing this Mike, it makes it so much easier to keep track of things 😀
Hey Mike, any objections if I double dip? I’ve got two unofficial challenges I want to publish in October… probably tomorrow. One for another playlist prompt, and one for a broader story telling prompt. Think that’s okay, or is it better to just stick to one?
Once again, I am commenting my thanks for you putting these together for the month. You rock, Mike!
