The Lifecycle of a Novel Draft
This article’s aim is to teach you how to draft a novel. That’s a pretty vague statement and begs a lot of questions. What’s a draft? What work or planning do you have to do before you start drafting? Can you just sit down and start putting pen to paper and expect a draft to miraculously show up? How many drafts do you need to write in order to get a “finished” novel?
First and foremost, a draft is simply a version of a manuscript, and there will be many versions along the way to a finish novel ready for publication (or whatever other plans you have for it). The purpose of a first draft is to bring your story ki
Welcome to another themed feature!
I love the cozy light of candles or the soft light coming from lampions, be it to iluminate a warm summer evening outside or my home during the cold winter months.
If you like this feature give it a favourite, so others might see it too.
Thank you.

* They can be placed on your iD or Webcam!
* Or for any other personal use!

Daily Deviation Guidelines - General Photography
I am a General Photography CV alongside EveryNextDream (https://www.deviantart.com/everynextdream). Below you will find my guidelines, semi-regularly updated.
General DD Suggestion guidelines:I cover all the photography galleries that do not have a specific other CV covering them. This means, for example, that I do not cover the APN galleries since they have their own CV, likewise for Fashion, likewise for Street. To see the list of photography CVs visit this link: FAQ #18: https://www.deviantart.com/help/18 - Who selects Daily Deviations and how are they chosen?You may suggest to EveryNextDream (https://www.deviantart.com/everynextdream) or myself, but please do not suggest the same piece to both of us. If I feel your suggestion fits with the taste of EveryNextDream (https://www.deviantart.com/everynextdream) I will either forward it her way or

looking for readers and writers
Hey pps, I looking for a readers group. What's that? Well, when writers write stuff, they share it with a readers group who will then give them feedback on the work. By feedback I don't mean 'well, it's crap' or 'awesome!', or even 'constructive criticism'. It's not about critiquing the work as much as it is understanding characters, pointing out flaws in plot, commenting on what is good, what is lacking, what should be repeated, what shouldn't, what you liked in particular, what you didn't and why... from a readers point of view.
I'd also like to have a writers group. It's similar, but if you are a writer you know how to look at a written
After my amazing time at DollNorth and meeting so many great people I thought I’d like to give back a bit to the people who make the hobby so great! All of you!
I’ll be running a giveaway from May 26th [today] to June 10th [because I like even numbers]
The subject of the tattoo is up to you! I highly encourage to find examples for content and placement or sketch what you want to make the process run smoothly and get exactly what you want :3
I deleted most of this list because StanieI (https://www.deviantart.com/staniei) put in all the work to get every single llama group into one list. It's even organized into sections for joinable and un-joinable groups. I couldn't possibly take credit for that.
