Haha, I'd like to clear things up just in case some of you missed this...but the recent poll I made [link] ...NONE of those quotes are from my work. In the first comment I post who they're by, I decided to do this so if you didn't recognize them, you'd choose unbiasedly.

In there are quotes from 3 different books, the other 7 are from proses and poetry of some deviants I watch. It's a fun little way to show/feature literature that I love/sticks out to me. Who knows...you might see a quote from one of your own pieces in the future!

I also enjoyed my previous one, so I could see just what sort of lines from myself that you guys enjoyed most. THIS is why I wanted to clear things up, since I did it before...I wanted you to know that this is not another case of that. The credit goes to those wonderful artists.

In other news...I still haven't gotten any submissions for the Cartheinsane music fun challenge. [link] I don't know if I should just continue waiting till people do it or post another news article and post the submissions of BOTH of those challenge types together in one article when people do them.

So I'd really like to post submissions in an article for the recent challenge...but nobody has done it yet.

Kind of surprised, considering how many people on DA post lyrics and love music.

*Sigh*

How many of you guys like to role play? And when I mean role play, I mean in story written form, not as much DnD as making a character and continuously writing a story together with other people.

Cuz my love has an rp and if you guys wanna join I think you should check it out, I like it so far. [link]

I've been thinking and... well I should really go through my friend's list. I was inspired by another friend to do so. I hope that if some of you get removed you're not offended, so just a head's up. I'm going to be watching people that.

a) Talk to me and care about me and/or I care about you.

and

b) Make good artwork/serious about making good artwork.

If you are one or the other I will keep watching you. If you are inactive, I'm sorry, but I'm removing you. It's nothing against you, but if you show up every half a year practically to respond only to comments and do nothing but that...what am I to do?

I'm not disowning you and it's not like I'm ignoring you. You send a submission for my connection? I'll accept it, because anyone's allowed to do so. You talk to me, I respond. I only hope that my watchers watch me because they like my art or me, not because they want me to watch them. I don't want that.

I want to apologize to anyone that I just ended up watching to be polite, because they watched me or they didn't have enough watchers.

Has the right idea.

Update: I took off about 20 people; I'm done with the editing of the list now.

If you guys have any more fun writing ideas for my writing or future Cartheinsane challenges, please throw them my way.

Got this from

1. Be one of the first 5 people commenting on this journal entry, and I will add you to The List.
2. For each of those 5 people I will put their avatar and three deviations I like from their gallery on the list.
3. If I feature you, you'll have to do the same in your journal, then feature me and anyone else who featured you before listing 5 new ones.

(If you don't want to be featured, you can say so. )

All 5 people are up! Have fun with features.

Hey, I'm feeling temporarily in a non-writing mood, but I was wondering if you guys had any theme or writing suggestions for me for when I get back into the mood. I'd really appreciate it. I may or may not go for your idea, but I'm willing to hear it out.

I eventually want to try out a Villanelle if I can, but I don't know how soon I'll get that one out of me.

Have a nice day.

If you're going to be so pigheaded, offended and not listen to a word someone says in their critique save grammar and spelling error corrections, then don't bother requesting for critiques at all.

It's so disappointing to spend your time on a critique to want to HELP improve a piece only for it to be ignored. I realize it's the artist's choice in the end whether or not to change their work, but seriously?

If you're not going to listen or respect the person who took their precious time to give you a critique then why do you bother asking for an advanced special critique? You might as well just say in comments you want your grammar and spelling corrected.
