ProjectSeattle April 2008; Volume I, Issue 1

~ProjectSeattle:iconProjectSeattle: reports, April 4
:iconprojectseattle:
Welcome to *ProjectSeattle!


I, *Poetic-Dragon, have created this monthly newsletter as a way to show off Seattle, and the surrounding areas and all things that have to do with it. This is our first newsletter. In time, I hope for this to become more than just the newsletter: maybe a place where Seattlites {and other Washingtonians} can set up devmeets, where we can show off local artist and writers, and all that wonderful stuff.

I have put together a simple format for now for the newsletter. For all catergories {except literature}, there will be 12 pieces featured. Literature will only have three, because that involves more {reading and more searching and all that}; for this month, I cheated a bit and did the three pieces of literature in my account's gallery, that have Seattle. One is a short poem; the other two are fantasy stories that take place in Seattle.

Well, enough chat. Please, enjoy. And if you love the letter, please :+fav: it or comment or both. It would be greatly appreciated so that I know how well this is recieved. Oh, and if you are going to be a sour-puss and reject the newsletter, PLEASE have the courtesy to NICELY say WHY you don't like it, alright? I would like to make this newletter as good as I can.

Thank you and enjoy
*Poetic-Dragon {aka *Pyrosaint-Stox}

~ProjectSeattle:iconProjectSeattle: Apr 4, 2008, 3:51:02 PM Mood: Frustrated
I hate it that I can't just cut and paste the feature announcement into EVERYONES comments.... It stops after the first 30 or so because it thinks I'm spamming people. So after that, it's slow going. I hate this new feature on DA. Makes featuring others hard. >< I got thru digital artwork. I will do the rest later today when it allows me to start doing that again. ^^; Sorry if you watch me and haven't gotten your announcement yet....you will, just give me a chance.
~valkardy:iconvalkardy: Apr 4, 2008, 6:48:04 PM
Thank you for taking the time to feature my work. I lived in Seattle for 5 months and i must say that it's one of the best cities in the U.S.

What, no Artisan Crafts section? I think I'm offended. Or aroused. Or both! I mean, you realize that Seattle's home to killer jewelers and crafters like :iconporkshanks: and bizarre maskmakers like myself, right? Anyways, I'll be watching you, and you you'd best be watching some of us!

Yes, I realize, because I am one of those people. But for now, this is artwork that has more of the obvious Seattle and NW themes in it. Once this gets underway, I will be featuring more things, like it says in the newsletter. And it would only make since for a Seattlite to make a newletter featuring Seattle items. BTW, look in misc and you will see a couple of artisan crafts: Kalakala and the coffee foam face... and the stock image of the Chief Sealth counts in a way too. And I consider tattoos an artisan craft....sadly, that was the only tattoo of the Needle posted. I might just have to get it tattooed on me so it can be featured! LOL
~ProjectSeattle:iconProjectSeattle: Apr 4, 2008, 10:33:35 PM
^_^ No Problem {that's the more amusing and decent shot of the Troll I've come across, even if it's just his hand...all the others I found were the exact same shots over and over and lighting was terrible or it was a blurry picture}

And you'll be getting more features in the future probably ^_^ The best way to find Seattle stuff to feature is to stalk...oops, I mean, WATCH local. :XD:
~ProjectSeattle:iconProjectSeattle: Apr 4, 2008, 10:34:46 PM
A pleasure ^_^

Yeah, I've been here for just over 6 yrs and the first night I got here, I was instantly in love with the place {even though it was winter and cold and wet and dark out LOL}. A VERY nice change from west Texas.

This is great! Thank you so much! I can't wait to see more! :lol:
