Another bit of news out of the Spanish-speaking Branch of the Wiki this month; they are hosting a Dark Arts Contest called 'Necronomicon'! How's that for a clever name? The rules are simple, you and one other author must collaborate to create an SCP, Tale, or GoI Format that depicts a cursed object/individual. But wait, there's more! It's also an art contest! For more information on the contest, you can check out the hub here!

Writing Prompts
Site News is bringing you monthly writing prompts! Every month there will be user-submitted prompts to help inspire new pieces. Participation in these prompts is completely optional, and any pages based on the prompts will be featured in the next issue of Site News! If you're interested in submitting a prompt for next Site News, send a wikidot PM to ParallelPotatoes. One prompt submission per person, and up to five prompts will be shown in each edition of Site News.
This month's writing prompts are below!
Mix & Match Submitted by Merehrab
Pick 3 random scps that don't already have tales written about them and write a tale that connects them together in a way that makes sense. Bonus points if one SCP is from early series one or two and another one is from the more recent series (seven, eight, or nine).
Human Emeritus Submitted by Caospin
What does it mean to be a "human emeritus"?
If you write an entry inspired by this or a previous month's prompts, feel free to send a wikidot PM to ParallelPotatoes to have it featured in the next Site News! There isn't a time limit on getting prompt submissions featured, so feel free to write for a previous month's prompts as well!1

Reviewers' Spotlights
Works are featured on the site’s front page as part of the Reviewers’ Spotlight, which acknowledges the time and effort spent by forum reviewers helping other authors develop and edit and their works for the mainsite. Each month, community members are encouraged to nominate forum reviewers who have been both particularly helpful and active. Members of the Forum Criticism Team will then discuss the nominations, and select four prominent reviewers to choose the month’s Reviewers’ Spotlight front-page features.
If you would like to view previous spotlights, you can view the archive for them here!
