May Flowers Bring…Prose

Journal Entry: Wed May 14, 2008, 9:39 PM


Another month is upon us, and we already have some wonderful literature related plans to bring into action in May. Keep an eye out for news on your chance to Polish Your Poetry and Prose, and get more information about exactly what that entails here: [link]

Of course there are other newsworthy articles here that might be of interest:
[link] What is Revision?
---Tips on improving and further cleaning up your writing.

[link] Where are the writers?
---Meet and greet new writers on DeviantArt, and make them feel at home.

[link] Be Someone's Critical Friend!
---Place for information on feedback and reviews for your May polishing.

:new: [link] Questions and Conversations
---Lovely article on important questions to keep in mind when prose writing.

:star: Be sure to take time out to thank Bill for putting these very constructive articles together. I will be posting more as they become available throughout this month. And do not worry; I am still always looking to support/post new literature related news, so if any of you have any to share, note me and I will do my best to get it featured!

Some recent news requests – take a look:

:new: I received another new print today from the darling *GaioumonBatou. And just when I thought that wasn't the best surprise of all during my busier last few weeks, he also wrote me a little blurb yesterday to brighten my spirits: [link] hopefully, he does know just how much he always spoils me! :aww:

Devious Information

About Your Literature Gallery Director:

I have been writing since I was about six years of age. I write for my own enjoyment, a sense of inner fulfillment, and I judge writing that I read on the heart and soul of a piece that speaks to me in that fashion only. I write how I desire to, and what I desire to...I have always had a rather personal rule of thumb that I live by: write to please only myself, and for the sheer enjoyment of doing so. I do not expect to earn a "quick buck," or even to "change the world," I just want to express my feelings through the hearts of my characters. I enjoy writing and reading novels of all sorts, but my favorite genres are Historical romance, fantasy, and suspense.

Away from DeviantART, I work daily in an Emergency room. Not surprisingly, there is always something exciting going on there. I do consider it my life’s work and love every minute of it. I also deem myself as a rather serious Abraham Lincoln scholar, and spend a great deal of my free time when not working studying, reading, learning, and eagerly collecting all things Lincoln.

What Can I Do For You On DeviantART?

I would like for you to note me prose and poetry selections that you feel are worthy of a Daily Deviation. As you all well know, these selections are regarded as a very prestigious honor, and I most especially desire to see the very best of the best.

If any of you come across something that speaks to you in some way that possesses the remarkable quality truly worthy of this honor, please include some information in your note as to why you think so. I am also for equal opportunity, and would be more than happy to feature writers of any and all sorts. If you ever have any questions at any time, feel free to note me, or any of my team members: ^GeneratingHype, ^lovetodeviate and ^StJoan.

We are always here to help make your experience on DeviantART a pleasant one.

A headless man had a letter to write, it was read by a man who had lost his sight. A mute repeated it word for word, and deaf was he who heard. What is the letter?

You can learn many things from children; how much patience you have for instance.

Oh my...I am at a loss for words. Thank you so very much, my dear, for the recommendation for a Daily Deviation. I never in my wildest dreams expected such, and I truly am taken aback.
