Weird Web October is a challenge to try and make a website every day of October, based on the theme for each day, inspired by Inktober. It’s open to you and everyone! #weirdweboctober

My name is Jay Zuerndorfer and I decided to organize Weird Web October after talking about the idea with fellow attendees of the 2024 XOXO festival.

Jake Parker created Inktober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his inking skills and develop positive drawing habits. It has since grown into a worldwide endeavor with thousands of artists taking on the challenge every year.

Inktober now has merchandise. Kind of ruins the idea for me. But, I understand wanting to market it and make money from the point of view of Jake Parker and whoever else has become involved.
