We will be posting publishing opportunities around about every month, now, specifically for literary magazines. But what does that mean for a novice who has never submitted before? Let me break it down for you. There are tons of lit mags out there, journals, reviews, and small presses. Some are more reputable than others. So the first step is Find Your Market The market is the audience you are targeting, so you should have an idea of your genre (sci fi is great but what type? Hard, soft, etc?) and the demographic of your audience (

How to be a street photographer in four lessons

'How to be...a photographer in four lessons' is a satyrical notebook written by Brussels-based photographer Thomas Vanden Driessche http://www.howtobe.be/htb/index.php?/thebook/english-edition/ (english edition) http://www.howtobe.be/htb/index.php?/thebook/french-edition/ (french edition). In strips of four typewritten lessons and four Photo Booth images each - it offers the basic gist of how you can instantly become great in contemporary photography, war photography, conceptual photography, street photography, marriage photography, and much more. I enjoyed it because it highlights with humor and wit the stereotypes and spinoffs of certain tr

Artisan Craft and Copyright Law

Artisan Craft and Copyright Law As a Community Volunteer I spend a lot of time pouring through the Artisan Crafts galleries looking for art that deserves a bigger audience. I dig through every little hidden corner of the galleries looking at every type of craft, made by everyone from the most watched members to the day old newbies. And every time I do this, I have to double check it all for originality. My time doing this had shed light on a massive problem inherent in the AC galleries: copyright violation Now, I'm not talking about the obvious I-stole-your-picture-and-uploaded-it violations.

Fifty Word Flash - April winners

Hmm, I’ve got a problem. Three out of nine entrants interpreted ‘somewhere’s wrong’to be ‘something’s wrong’ which was I think the original intention. But a slip of the keyboard is easy enough and rules is rules so the given prompt stands.. However, three out of nine is a big number. It would just be sad to disqualify that many people so instead of three winners we will have four. The fourth will be the winner of the three ‘something’s wrong’ entrants. I hope everyone can accept that as fair. Congrats to the six who stuck with somewhere’s wrong though, ‘cause that&rsquo

Happy Holidays from DeviantArt!

‘Twas the night before Christmas on DeviantArt, Not a paintbrush was stirring, and creators took heart. The artists scrolled through Daily Deviations with care Knowing kindred warm-fuzzies soon would be there. Deviants were all swiping, all snug on their phones While visions of inspiration across all time zones Were zapped to their smart device, quick as can be, At the tap of a button in a +Fav’ing spree! When across the Interwebs there arose such a clatter, I sprang to the Comments to see what was the matter, “I’m bored,” the Journal wrote, “I’m on a long trip, too. I don’t have my laptop, an

Daily Deity #122 Skadi

The sudden cold snap in the air and frost on my car in the morning has got me to start thinking about this icy Norse goddess. Skadi, like several other deities in the Norse pantheon is not in fact Aesir or Vanir, but is a giantess from Jotunheim. This puts her in the same league as Loki or Frey's wife, Gerdr, at least based on lineage alone. Her father is probably one of the most famed giants in Norse mythology (and there are quite a few that are well known) as he is Thaizi. You might remember him. He's the guy- the giant that stole Idunn, the Norse goddess of Youth and Keeper of Golden Apples, and could change his shape and caused a whole

"So who is he?" asked Jean. "He is the new Killer Star," Ziggy told. "Killer Star? I thought he was known as Starkiller," Major Tom noted. "There's the Hutt coming. Hide that book!" "What are you doing?" asked Aladdin, the Hutt who had just come to join the group. "Just talking about a better future," told Jareth. "A better future?" Aladdin repeated and laughed. "You, Jareth, the goblin king, talking about a better future?" "They talk," Jareth responded. "I'm not telling lies." "Ziggy," Aladdin called. "What?" asked Ziggy. "This is not America is that's what you're asking." Everyone laughed. "The life of Mars ain't that sad," Ziggy

Star Wars: Exceptional Jedi: Solving: Chapter 4

Star Wars: Exceptional Jedi Solving Chapter 4 In the next morning at 0600 Jedova stretched a bit. He admitted to himself that it had been a bad idea to stay up so late while waiting for Arya. For once, he was grateful that he was quite used to not getting enough sleep occasionally and thus could let the drowsiness fade away as he invited the Force in. He knew that he had to wake Arya up himself, though; the girl could not possibly have gotten up yet. When he was certain that he was fully awake, he walked to the common room and through it to Arya's door. He knocked lightly. "Arya, it's time to get up now." Just like Jedova had expected, t

You often come down to sit on the dock and stare into the sea. He thinks humans are pretty weird, loafing around rather than hunting for food. But hey, he's weird too, because instead of catching fish to feed his family, he finds himself taking time out to hang out with a human. The merman didn't know why he felt so comfortable around you – maybe it's because you're so sweet and pleasant to be with — but he's not complaining

After a long day out and about enjoying the autumn afternoon you return to wonderful savory smells filling the hallways. As you walk into the Crystal Cavern’s main hallway you are met with a single very long table with all sorts of meats and side dishes on it. Once everyone stopped trickling in and took their seats there was a soft clinking of a spoon on glass that caused a silence to fall. At the far end of the table, Sailor Diamond Unicorn stood up and addressed everyone, her Scottish accent thick as she smiled warmly. “Good evening and thank you so much for coming tonight.

MMA Instructional: How The Points Work

MMA 2016 is different in several ways to last year's MMA contest. The biggest difference, though, is how points are awarded, who can earn points, and what earning points does for you as a contestant and member. Any member of the Messier Alliance can earn points by participating in MMA. To earn points, all you have to do is participate in MMA rounds. So far, we have finished the very first round of MMA (known as Round 0 Introductions), and everyone who entered their art and story before the deadline was given an opportunity to earn a grand total of 50 points (a total of 25 points can be earned for the visual art, and another 25 points total c
