Wow! :faint:

I found out this morning that not only had I received a DLD yesterday (I didn't even get a chance to sit down at the computer yesterday, so I didn't even know!) and the DLD "Pick of the Day", but today I got a DD! All for the same deviation--my poem fate. This is my first DD for poetry ever, an event of great significance to me. And to have these all happen essentially at once! I'm just overwhelmed!

Thank you angelStained for both featuring my piece as a DLD and for suggesting it as a DD. My thanks go out to nycterent as well for giving me the DD today.

Hmmm... when did this journal start to sound like a speech at the Academy Awards? :confused:

:giggle:

I guess I'm just giddy right now!

Anyway, unfortunately, it has been a busy day for me in the material world, so I haven't been able to devote much time to replies and thank yous yet. So as a place holder for the moment, I'll say Thank You to each of you who has commented and/or faved my poem!

I feel very honored today! :aww:

:phew: Whew! I'm back from "vacation". I've been gone for a little over a week - all the way across the continent from my usual stomping grounds here in San Jose, and, as it turns out, I had limited internet access (if not for my iPhone, I would have had no internet at all - which isn't what I was expecting, but that's a different story).

While I was away, fotoFRIDAY was converted to a group, and I was invited to be the photography manager! :dance: (more info here: fotofriday.deviantart.com/blog…) I accepted, of course! :aww: If you write at all, you should go over and join the group right now!

As for me... I have a very full inbox to tackle! :faint:

I hope you're all doing well! I've missed ya! :dalove:

A Question for Writers

So, how many of you miss fotoFRIDAY?? 'Cause I sure do! Does anyone know who was last in charge of it? Should it be converted to a group? (Is dA still doing that?) I loved that group when Bill (GeneratingHype) was running it - in fact, that's how I met him! It was through that group that Bill touched my life and gave me a confidence boost that I had never had up 'till then. (Since then, a very special person boosts me on a regular basis... :aww: :heart:)

If anyone knows how we might get that group running again, I would love to know, too! I would even volunteer my meager spare time to it, if only we could find the current owner.

Bill

11 min read
From the prow
of my returning ship
I spy the lowered flags.

The waves that keep
my boat afloat cannot
bear up my heart.


So long Bill. I won't say goodbye, because I plan to see you again one day. Then, perhaps, I'll be able to know you as I wish I had in your lifetime.
