Member Feature Mondays
Hello, Dear Horde, and welcome to our weekly instalment of Member Feature Mondays! :dance:
Each and every Monday, we here at Apocalypse-writing (https://www.deviantart.com/apocalypse-writing) will be posting features of five of our illustrious members, as well as the occasional member interview; both in the spirit of community, and the hope it will help bring our members that little bit closer together. It’s also our little way of saying thanks to our members for choosing to be a part of our group. :)
This weeks features are Lava-Bunni (https://www.deviantart.com/lava-bunni), TheRierie (https://www.deviantart.com/therierie), lrmkaito (https://www.deviantart.com/lrmkaito), new-york-new-york (https://www.deviantart.com/new-york-new-york) and OpheliaBell (https://www.deviantart.com/opheliabell).

Contest Time and a Request! by Dragonwyrd316, journal
Contest Time and a Request!
I was buzzing around my AO3 account the other day and realized that I still have two invitations open to give out. As I was trying to figure out what to do with them, it hit me, why not hold a contest for people who might want (and not yet have) accounts over at archiveofourown.org? And if you've never heard of that site, it's a fantastic database of fanfiction for anything out there that fanfiction can be written for - games, movies, TV shows, books, etc. Thing is, you either have to put yourself on a waiting list (that can last a few months or longer) to get an account, or you can have a member send you an invitation which will grant you
Hello to all my fantastic friends and watchers!!
Just shy of a week ago, back on the 16th of this month, I had a birthday (if you didn't catch the notification by dA). Luckily I follow the theme of 'You're only as old as you feel' because otherwise, I'm not ready to be the age I am. If you're wondering how many years of life I have under my belt, I'm a quarter of a century plus ten years old, or my favorite way of saying it - 21 with 14 years of experience. I know that compared to some I'm just a baby, but to the rest of you, I'm probably a smidge shy of old fart status ~dragonlaugh (https://www.deviantart.com/dragonlaugh)
I want to say a big thank you to OpheliaBell (https://www.deviantart.com/opheliabell)

artistic nudity vs sexual figures by SimmotoSyoshiko, journal
artistic nudity vs sexual figures
I really wish that there were different filter setting. There's increasingly grosser posts now on DA that are not at all artistic in the least.
I think everyone can agree that there is some nudity which is not sexual, and there are many pieces where there is no nudity, which are HIGHLY sexual.
I won't ever be turning on my mature filter because I don't want to miss either, as long as its art. What I don't want to see are pictures of vaginas or penises up close, tortured genitals, crappy cellphone selfies, pictures depicting human toilet, pee, poo and assholes, I don't see anything artistic about a photo up someone's asshole. really.

This is what I don't like seeing by TwiggyTeeluck, journal
This is what I don't like seeing
I was browsing around deviantART today when I found a piece of art that I liked so naturally, I faved it.
Sometimes, when I fav something, the artist will come to my page and leave a comment telling me thanks. Sometimes they won't. Either one doesn't bother me because I'm not looking for anything in return.
But to my surprise, when I faved that piece of art today, this was the comment left on my page a few moments later:
Instead of saying thank you, or showing some sort of gratitude, they had simply instructed me to comment when I fav.
I thought this was incredibly rude and obnoxious.
First of all, no one owes you anything on this site.
The Nonsense.
Resolution 2 - Part 1, is pretty much in the bag! Writing it was a little like trying to house train a Thresher-Maw - It was dirty work and I spent most of my time lamenting 'Oh what have I done?' and the rest yelling 'HELP!'
And yes, the Thresher-Maw analogy is a little clue...
It was difficult to write for two reasons. Firstly I had no choice but to tackle a subject that was left open in Resolution, but had already been hinted at - which happened to set the time line. Secondly it's a complicated subject that I wasn't too excited about getting into.
Oh, what did I get myself into? :giggle:
It was a challenge, but I'm fairl
Where you can find me... by XaryenMaelstrom, journal
Where you can find me...
I've been unable to find a place on the web to show my pictures without the ability of anyone just taking them whenever they please.
This saddens me greatly.
It seems todays world is all about stealing and taking without care.
Oh well. If anyone here wants to keep in touch with me and see some of my original works (with huge labels of my name on top of the pictures).
