Summertime is about to get weird...

We're calling it Summerween. A horror contest. A creative prompt. An excuse to get weird in July.

Write something. Share a story or write a blog post. Post a photo set, make a spooky poster image. Make a playlist. Start a Deep Dive.

As long as it's tagged #summerween on Lavish Made, it's in.
