My most difficult challenge is Short Fiction because (1) a lot of what I planned to read isn't in the database and (2) there isn't any easy way to find the short fiction that IS in the database (no subgenre tag, no lists, no awards. etc). I had to go hunting elsewhere and then check the database; I went through probably 100+ options before I managed to fill most of the slots. (I still have three empty slots and I'm hoping some of my requests are added to the database by the end of the year.)

I'm guessing that I'm not the only one struggling, though, if the vast number of empty slots on the challenge page is evidence.

At least I learned my lesson to research whether a challenge is doable before signing up for it!
