Do you lie, or lay? Is it laying or lying? This article, in keeping with the Back to Basics theme for August, takes a brief look at using "Lie" vs. "Lay" in prose.

What's an ellipsis, how is it used and what's the difference between ellipses and em dashes in prose? This article discusses the proper use of both em dashes and ellipsis in prose writing, but doesn't redress the matter in non-fiction citations.
I will set up a DA chat room, and we will go into them, and click a link to listen in to the reader at a scheduled time. The reader will read extracts of their work, or poems, and then when they are done reading, get feedback, comments or talk to the listeners.

Bulwer-Lytton was best known for his purple prose and for originating several now cliched phrases, including 'it was a dark and stormy night,' 'the pen is mightier than the sword,' and 'the almighty dollar.'
Every year, San Jose State University holds the Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest for the worst opening line to a novel. Results are now out, and worth a read. Enjoy!
Song lyrics are one of deviantART's most overlooked sections. Perhaps it's the lack of musical accompaniment, but the words to a particular song, whether you hear the tune or not, are often wonderful poetry in and of themselves. It's time for dA to recognize this.
This is an open call to three other lyricists on deviantART to join me in producing a monthly feature showcasing songwriters and lyricists on deviantART. Though the exact format is to be decided, each month, we will select a number of deviations or deviants whose work we feel is particularly notable in order to give them some more recognition.
Please comment on http://plankhead.deviantart.com/journal/9321114/ if you're interested in participating with a brief description of why you believe you are an authority on lyrics.
Enter the magical, otherworldly realm of the fairy ... featuring costumes, jewelry, custom dolls and plushies, and enchanting utilitarian items from all the sub-categories of the Artisan Crafts gallery.
This is a collection of deviations showing real Pinups in the classic Retro poses from various Artists. You'll find a variation of Vintage Pinup Queens as well as fresh modern Pinup art. If you love Polkadots, seamed Nylons, Plateau-Heels and and miles-long-Legs you should not miss this collection.
A former volunteer with the Artist Relations team, `kuschelirmel has always been a wonderful role model within the community.
With a vibrant and eclectic gallery that would make anyone proud, her dedication to providing informative and easy to follow tutorials, journal CSS, and inspirational stock is clearly long overdue for recognition.
Join us in congratulating Jasmin in being awarded this month's Deviousness Award. Read More
