Some communities and individual blogs have monthly activities or events that take place at a particular time. Most of these happen either at the beginning or the end of each month. Others happen at different times, such as "the first Tuesday" or "the 15th." Many people like to pick several events to space out through the month. Events that run for one month also fall into the category of monthly events.

Fannish activities often advertise in [community profile] fandomcalendar and/or [community profile] fandom_on_dw so watch those if this field interests you. Of these, [community profile] fandomcalendar offers a convenient Frequency: Monthly tag, although not all relevant posts use that tag. [community profile] fandom_on_dw does not offer frequency tags, but is a popular place to post all types of fannish events.

Other topics can be harder to hunt down because moderators often do not mark their community with interests such as "monthly," "every 4 weeks," or other helpful descriptors of timing. You can still find them by watching your reading page for things that your friends are doing. Some monthly events have banners that participants can use to promote them, and even with those that don't, you may see friends talking about what things they have signed up to do.

If you like "bleg" posts (short for "blog begging" where you ask questions of your audience) then this is a great topic for that. You can ask your friends what monthly events they are doing and/or which ones they recommend for you.
