Daily Lit Deviations for July 5, 2009

*DailyLitDeviations:iconDailyLitDeviations: reports, 21h 33m ago
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.

Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you :+fav: the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

THE LIT LIST: Issue No. 31

`ATrue:iconATrue: reports, 1d 20h ago
This weekly newsletter lists the literature activities being hosted all over DeviantArt.

This list was created to encourage deviants to participate in the literature community. All the activities listed are ones in which deviants can participate: everything from prompts and contests to chat rooms, special events, and volunteer opportunities are listed here. The Lit List makes it faster and easier for you to participate in the dA lit community.

The excuse most commonly used by deviants for only participating a little is time: "I like the concepts for several prompts and contests," they say, "but I only have time to write one piece." Well, why not challenge yourself by writing one piece that incorporates more than one theme? As a bonus, if you write one piece for more than one prompt, I will feature it on next Lit List; you just need to note me!

This issue features:

:bulletblue: New group ~TheCritiqueBox, ~OnceUponATimeClub, and *helping-the-unknown.
:bulletblue: New contests from ~TheCritiqueBox, *Prompt-A-Day, =SeptemberBreeze, and *Rhyme-and-Reason.
:bulletblue: New prompts from *Prompt-A-Day, *writeaway, =versebyverse, *simplypoetry, :devdistinctpoetry, ~distinctprose, ~OnceUponATimeClub, *WickedlyLoquacious, ~fiftywordfiction and =RawEm0tion.
:bulletblue: New category: VOTE. This category will include only new polls added after today that are very lit specific, such as voting for contest winners or on changes to the lit community.
:bulletblue: The Summer Haikuathon from =Iscariot-Priest.

Poetry Is...

~underlit:iconunderlit: reports, December 11, 2007
:sun: POETRY IS... :sun:


:bulletblue: :bulletgreen:What is poetry, to you? :bulletblue: :bulletgreen:


Poetry Is is an ongoing project to gather definitions and perceptions of poetry from around the dA community.

Comments noted to us are posted in a communal deviation, and notes are deleted after the comment is posted.


All contributions are posted anonymously.


:sun: If you'd like to participate, write a short paragraph or two (no giant rants please) about what poetry is, or does, or means to you, or on the state of poetry today, or on how poetry makes you feel, or why you don't like poetry-- whatever it is you want to say, and send it in a note to *underlit.


Please Note : Totally daft comments should be made in the comments box below the main deviation, as they won't find their way into this project. All the same, we might get a giggle out of them.

Poetry is Poetry,
As seasons to forest floor
Poetry is Poetry,
As nuclear devastation is to alliance.
Poetry is Poetry,
As starvation is to garbage-disposal.
Poetry is Poetry,
As everything is to vacuum.
Poetry is ambigious,
Poetry is Poetry.
~adurna-rose:iconadurna-rose: Dec 11, 2007, 10:19:36 PM
Poetry is the expression of feelings and thoughts,
In such a way, to be eloquently put,
That allows the reader to feel their feelings.
Whether that be the same or oppisite.
Poetry is a way those of this world can express
Themselves.

Poetry is the chain we make,
Poetry rises as a cake,
Poetry knows what we cannot see:
The words open doors as a key.
Poetry does not have to rhyme,
Though I do like it:
From time to time.
Poetry is my life,
Until the robed man and his scythe.
