WELCOME

Welcome one and all to THE-PERFECT-STORM! This is a group with its sight set on words. Literature and those who love it need a place to call home here on DA, and that's where we come in! THE-PERFECT-STORM is an organization that intends to stretch its claws to the far four corners of DA! Spreading voices and opinions through the art of writing, in a written hurricane! We don't just accept poems or short stories, oh no. This is going to be a group for everyone and anyone who loves literature in all its different forms! We accept poetry, prose, comic strips & fan-fiction, songs, crafted or designer literature, even pictures of written designs! As long as it's words, we want it! We accept everything from child to mature written pieces. NO limit will be put on you and your creativity, so feel free to spread those wings! We are writers! We are free! We shall let our voices be heard! Make our presence known! It's time to show the world what us writers can REALLY do! Join us on our journey, in a whirlwind of words, to shake the very foundations of DA!

Anyone interested in a contest?

It's an idea I have been pondering for awhile (I have some ideas) but I wasn't sure how well one would be received. I mean we have a lot of members and submissions enough to the gallery but otherwise it's pretty quiet around here. So...

I guess this is me asking if there is any interest in a contest. I would need someone to help judge and offers for prizes but if you guys are up for it so am I! So what do you say?
To celebrate our 6 month anniversary I decided to try and whip us up some new members and recognitiion so I posted a news article about the group!

The article can be found at [link]. If you haven't already, tell your friends about it and us. You don't have to be a writer to join in this hurricane, all you need is a desire to enjoy great literature.

Hopefully this article will make for a swell addition to our group. I plan on doing a new one for each "noteworthy anniversary" to help keep the group out there in a big way!

By the way, if you know any active/reliable who would be interested in becoming more active in the group, please note me. We are currently seeking a new member to join the administration!
While the finishing touches are being added to our EYE OF THE HURRICANE: EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW AND FEATURE News Article, it gives me great pleasure to announce that #The-Perfect-Storm will be home to yet ANOTHER news article! Started by yours truely :bow: , focusing on topics such as depression, anger, suicide etc. and featuring a range of pieces by random deviants! We ask you to please be patient with our EYE OF THE HURRICANE Article, great things take time ;p , but you can bet it's on its way! :highfive:
So without further ado, I present to you, Scream Magazine - First Release
Please don't hesitate to :+favlove: the article to show your support!

TPS, may I ask why you requested me to submit one of my lyrics here? :meow:

I went back through some of the submissions that had expired that people had previously attempted to submit to the group. I am sort of in charge of the place and due to life the group had fallen into a sort of unofficial hiatus. If I asked you to submit your lyrics chances are you had already submitted the request a while ago and it never got accepted at this time

Just wondering if you received my note concerning our newest contest/challenge at #RawEm0tion, and also about our upcoming Lit Feature. If you have any information you want to spread the word about, now would be the time to note us!

The article will be posted around August 13th, so please reply back as soon as you can.

Thanks! :aww:

I don't think we did if you sent it recently... if you send me the information, I can add it to our feature!

I sent it July 27th, and I've only had 1 reply since from all of our affiliates...so I'm thinking some of the notes didn't go through :X

Ah well, the info is in this blog. The contest is titled "Past, Present, Future: A Collaboration Project". It's open to All deviants of the written word, so anyone is welcome to participate. All the instructions on how to enter are listed in the blog. Deadline to apply is August 15th (so about a week from now). However, if we don't have a good amount of participants, the deadline is likely to be pushed further. The more people we can get, the more fun this contest will be ^^ We're also looking for more prize donations (anything and everything will be accepted).

If you have anything going on in #THE-PERFECT-STORM that you want mentioned in our next article feel free to send a note and I'll happily post it for you :D
