Reading is a fantastic way to evoke emotion, imagination and inspiration. Sadly, a great many fantastic writers remain hidden and unknown on DeviantART – here are a few spectacular pieces you've been missing out on!
The third in my series of features (yes, I know I accidentally misnamed the last one
); I've enjoyed looking for and finding these pieces very much - I hope you enjoy reading them.
Got a certain style you prefer to read? Have a quick look at the preview lines to whet your appetite (all preview lines carry the same strict copyright as their original pieces).

the unwillingness to change
And the dislike of something different.
