Join the Season’s Readings Reading Challenge!
Participate in the platform-wide Storyforge reading challenge, discover new stories, provide feedback and earn prizes!
How it works
Read and Connect: Jump into the amazing stories on StoryForge and see what your fellow writers have been creating! You can explore short stories, long novels, and everything in between; every read helps bring our community closer together. Show some love and support by diving into their work!
Leave Feedback: Sharing your thoughts is what it’s all about! Constructive feedback can make a huge difference, from pointing out what you enjoyed to offering helpful suggestions. It’s all about helping each other grow in a positive and encouraging way.
Track Community Progress: We’re all in this together! As you read and leave feedback, you’ll see our community-wide progress bar grow. Watching our shared efforts add up is so satisfying, and every comment or read helps us get closer to our goals.
Earn Rewards Together: The more we read and share feedback, the closer we get to unlocking awesome prizes! Once we hit our goals, everyone who’s joined in will earn Quills, a reading tracker, and even two special avatars to celebrate everything we’ve accomplished as a community.
Keep A Journal: Want a way to keep track of what you’ve been reading? There are also coloring pages if you need a break from reading! Everyone who is signed up on StoryForge gets a free copy of the Reading Journal! Get your discount code either on the platform or in our marketing emails once you’ve signed up!
Prizes and Rewards
You didn’t think we’d do something like this without prizes, did you? You should know us better than that by now! It’s not all or nothing either; the prizes roll in along the way.
We’ve broken it out into two different sets of rewards and all these rewards are exclusive to this event!
A reading journal!
This is free to everyone! Make sure to log in to the platform or check the newsletter after the event launches for the redemption code!
Prize Track 1: Chapters Read
To unlock the exclusive Season’s Reading library set, we will need to read 2000 total chapters! Pieces will be unlocked quickly early on, but the thresholds get bigger as we go!
Prize Track 2: Feedback Left
There are 4 backgrounds, 3 borders (these are new!), and 5 unique avatars that we can get, including the returning BookWarm and Book Wyrm! The only way to get these is to leave inline feedback and chapter comments on someone else’s work!
