2) Copy the Prompt/Challenge/Mission to your own blog with your response then come back here and leave your link in the comments of the appropriate topic so everyone will know where to find it.
3) If you don't have a blog, why not start one? Or you can just post your response here.
4) You don't have to participate in every post. Do the ones you want. Backtrack if you wish.

Prompts, Challenges, and Missions
What’s the Difference?
A Prompt is mainly a Crochet topic to write about.
A Challenge is more involved, oftentimes combining crocheting with writing something to go with it. Or it may be a short crochet project.
A Mission is all about creating your own pattern and usually has a longer time span to complete than the first two. Missions will be posted on the first of the month, and sometimes, one or two may just be thrown in randomly depending on what's going on in the world. Every now & then, it may also involve writing, but it's really intended more for the crochet.
