dArt is the best art channel. We do NOT need to become Facebook or anything else. Apart from anything else the word Status always seemed stupid on FB in that context. I don't want any of the changes they have made lately that I have seen. Thought it now ridiculously hard to find out what kind of files they accept text in submissions these days and not impressed with the options- /rant
Still looking for anyone who wants to animate with me. Now working on the third part of my series of books- still looking for a publisher! Passed 4K views a while ago- woo hoo!

I won again !
I have won the monthly writing competition again on Newgrounds. The challenge was really interesting, to write a story twice, from two different perspectives. I wasn't sure they would even like my story as in a sense there is hardly any story, just perspectives. However, THEY DID :
Here is the story :

Story Pictures?
I sometimes write little stories in the comments about what I see in people's pictures on dA - usually my favourite Artist- Fleeting Ember - but sometimes others. I have recently decided to put all the pictures into a Collection here on my page, so if you see any of my stories on a picture that is NOT in my Story Picture collection, please let me know. I KNOW I am missing a few...
Got books
Sorry, I forgot to come back and tell you all, the book three of my little stories are published in is called Apples, Shadows and Light, published by Earlyworks Press.
In the past I have never tried to sell copies of the books I am in, as my contribution is such a small part, plus I hate to be pushy with my friends and family. However, this time I had some interest and I have bought a few for resale- and they are going! Next stop should really be trying to get my name on the front cover of something, but writing is just a pastime in a busy life, so I will probably continue to potter with competitions etc until I retire, piling up notes
I Won!
Happy Days- I have won first prize in a 100 word story writing competition. £100 !
That's a Pound a Word!
The winning story, plus two other entries of mine will be in a book published by Earlyworks due out in 2017. I will let y'all know the title etc when I have it.
I am still chasing that elusive name-on-the-cover with a real publisher, but it certainly keeps me going to have some success. Micro-fiction is the only thing that ever gets me any money. I don't know what that says about my writing; I suppose it suggests that I cannot compete at the higher levels with longer, more detailed work, but I'm never going to give up.

Chill! dART still operates much the same as it ever has. The changes are window-dressing. Ignore them.
