THE LIT LIST: Issue No. 31

`ATrue:iconATrue: reports, July 4
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.

Scribes Spotlight [March 2008]

=LostKitten:iconLostKitten: reports, March 7, 2008
Literature--like visual art--can take on many forms and be appreciated by some, but not by all. Every artist tends to have a particular style that they prefer to express themselves through. Sometimes art is seen as crude or inappropriate at first glance. Then reveals a masterpiece as time passes and minds expand.

My intention:
I hope to reveal unique pieces of written art. Those writers who put their hearts and souls into their literature, but don't have an extensive fan-base. This spotlight is to allow some exposure for the "under-dogs" of dA literature.

To those who view these artists work:
If you plan to critique follow the rules of criticism. Being rude is not a critique that's appreciated by any artist. Some of the pieces I select may not have perfect grammar, punctuation, etc. I did not choose them for their grammatical prowess. I chose these pieces for the stories behind the words. I myself do not hold a lot of weight on grammar, because not all writers are English majors or even fluent in the English language.

The plan:
Within the first week of every month I'll share a piece from writers that I've found on dA to be exceptional. If I can't decide among their collective efforts I'll select their featured piece as the feature to represent them. Who better to know what work is their best than the writer him/herself?

I encourage members of dA to look around for other pieces and send them to me via note so I can give other talented scribes their time in the spotlight. Please do not submit your own work, explore dA and enjoy the talents of other writers.

-----

Because making a thumb of literature does not allow you to see anything regarding the context I decided to make links to the featured piece using the title as the link text. Enjoy!
