Maybe something like a monthly prompt-basedwriting contest? On Reddit there's a dedicated community for this (r/WritingPrompts) but it could be a fun addition here too.
Anything featuring writing prompts is something I like. I don't write as often as I'd like, but that would be the most likely to grab me and, even when I don't contribute, I like to save prompts I like to reference when I am in a writing mood.
I second the writing prompts idea, and would like to offer an additional idea which might be a little strange. I used to love this subreddit called "/r/worststory". It was a place for writing prompts where the idea was to intentionally create a terribly written story.
I got a lot of fun out of that subreddit, especially when there was a collaborative story thread. The basic premise of the subreddit made it a lot less daunting to post and easier to work out silly but creative ideas for stories.
