On 18th February at 2pm CST in Shattered Workshop
We are having a Q and A with *AdirianSoan a talented and friendly poet that has recently joined the ranks of shatteredwriters. This will be a great chance for everyone to ask those questions they have always wanted answered. *AdirianSoan has been writing since he was 10, that is 9 years of poetry and some prose writing. He has had experience in writing different poem styles such as sonnets, but prefers to create his own unique writing style instead of adopting a well known style. So come along to Shattered Workshop with your questions ready to ask or maybe just visit as an on-looker.

What I say:

Sounds interesting, eh? Maybe we should check it out


Edit: I have recieved the proper link, and the journal has been updated. The link should work now!

=ProsePlease is holding a Q&A with :angelles: Sunday 27th November 2005
Her featured work is Please take a look at Leaving Eden

=angelles, Angelles LaVeau was born in Lexington, KY but is currently living between Manhattan and Tampa. Her story is varied and interesting, and with a wealth of experience and talent she is well worth talking to.

Angelles loves to read, and sketches and writes everyday. Her other interests includes watching the NYY baseball games, chasing storms, hurricanes and tornados, modeling and studying Astrology and Astronomy. She is also currently engaged and getting married this winter.

She has a book of short stories and poetry that is also being considered for publication at present. Her first published work was an e-mag article for Namaste Journal called "The Goddess: Searching for the Feminine Face of God"

Angelles started writing Leaving Eden in the Atlanta Airport waiting for a flight to Dublin. The story of The Garden of Eden has always fascinated her and she likes to explore different views and opinions on Historical Fiction/Nonfiction. Her family being Creole, with deep roots in New Orleans, she grew up learning about the Snake Gods. Lilith was always associated with the Serpent in the Garden and Angelles just wanted to put a spin on one of the worlds oldest stories, told thru the eyes of the one who got the bad wrap. It has always been her belief that Lilith was GOOD, and a Goddess in Her own right. Leaving Eden just tells her story.

Please take a look at Leaving Eden

Hello. We are holding another Q&A and would appreciate it if yuou could let your members know.

Cheers *RebeccaA

=ProsePlease will host its next Q&A with =DuchessdeMedici on Sunday 20th November in chatProsePlease at 8pm EST. Please feel free to attend and talk to Sarah.


=DuchessdeMedici (Sarah) is a college freshman, who has been writing since the second grade when she wrote her first short story assigment. Sarah also loves to read, particularly fantasy, historical fiction, and the classics. At the moment, her favorite book is "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" by Victor Hugo. Sarah also has a love of Medieval and Renaissance history, and plans to major in Medieval Studies. She is currently working on two novels of her own. One is a fantasy novel and the other is a historical fiction novel on Anne of Cleves (the fourth wife of Henry VIII). There are several other writing projects happening at the same time.

A sample of =DuchessdeMedici’s work is Anna von Kleve – Chapter 1 ]]> ~PoeticParadise http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/7038398/ http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/7038398/ Sun, 13 Nov 2005 17:46:38 PST Sara

Ok, so here's my choice for the mothly favorite: Wedding Toast

And my Comment for it: This poem was written by one of my rl best friends. That didn't sway my choice though. There are so many great poems out there! I have plenty to choose from for next month, that's for sure. But for this month, I choose this poem. It has great meaning in it, and it's well written. It has that rhyme to it that makes it flow, and it has the theme that is easy to connect to. It does have a little odd pieces to it, but that only helps make it interesting and captivating. I've read it over and over many times, and I still enjoy reading it. It's on of my favorites that she has written, so I choose it for my monthly favorite here ^^

Hello, it's ~crazynloveless (AKA ~CrazyNotSoLoveless). I'm sorry this is delayed, I owe you all my apologies -- Better late than never though right?

My monthly favourite is: cashier by *SirMink.

I watched this poem grow through two stages, and its development was what you would expect of a poem. However, this piece stands out in its differences, it isn't a common or cliche topic at all, has a great use of parentheses (Which many poets fail at using properly or successfully), and to top it off, Mike uses a touch of humour that made me smile and laugh throughout the piece. Diversity is good, but good isn't always diversity. Well, this is both. Congratulations to you Mike, I enjoyed seeing the two versions - The final being a well polished, humourous piece. --Chloe

Ok then, so I guess I should give a little description of what I've been asked to do. I will be mending the journals and adding in all the special links and what not (Like to membership info, member lists, contests, etc.). So, you can expect to see those items linked in every journal from now on!

I've also been asked to welcome new members, so I'll be doing that via note and sending a nice little greeting on new members' front pages.

The poet of the month has asked to be started back up, so I will be trying to put that together and get that up and running again. So please members, participate! I don't want to have this go back down the drain again, I really want to do a good job here, and that requires you guys to help out, too!

I will also be helping in receiving submissions to post up in the club. I will be checking up on club notes and posting up poems sent that want to be posted in the club.

That's about it, or about it that I've been asked to do here. I hope I'll do a good job and you guys will accept me. I'm going to try my best!

In case anyone wants to know a little about me and what I am and what not, here's all that ^^' You guys prolly want to know you're admin, not just what she's gonna be doing, right? But of course!

I am female and a senior in High School. I go by the names of Sara (real name), Kirema, Jeslica, and Skooby. I'm easy to get along with and open to any suggestions and/or comments. I do all sorts of literature and traditional art. I tend to stick towards my poetry and florals with Prismacolors. I'm sure you can see that on my account if anyone visits. I'm active when I can be and involved in many clubs. I'm on almost everyday somehow, so I won't be hard to contact via dev if there are any messages anyone wants to send me. I do prefer to keep my IM messengers on the down low. I've had troubles before with having it open, so it's not open anymore unless I get to know you really well or someone I know asks me to add you to my list. I do have a tendency to get things started and not finish though ^^' I have many pieces of art half finished and most of my stories aren't finished. I have gained permission to have my fiancé come on and help out to. So if you guys spot a typo somehow made by me and come back and see it fixed later, that wasn't me, it was him. I'm a horrible speller! Lol. I do try though, and I'm getting better. A lot of times I'll just get ahead of myself and type something wrong or my brain will get ahead of my typing and I'll leave out words here or there. So bare with me if that annoys you, please. I'll do my best to spot mistakes and correct them as soon as possible. I'm also kind of crazy on the computer. I let myself run off on the wild spurts of hyperness and crazyness. So don't be scared of that either. I do go crazy and sound kinda odd once in awhile and just say stuff that doesn't make much since. The computer is my release, and I make it so very well ^^'

Anyways, I think that's enough for now. Any questions or comments for me, please leaves them here:

Much Love,
Sara

Well, hello again PoeticParadise and all of its members! Any of the few original members will probably remember me, but any others might not know who I am, or what I'm about. No clue? Well no worries! 'Cause I'm going to tell you!

I am the original founder of PoeticParadise, and let me tell you it's good to know that I am needed again after figuring out various parts of my life and after a big move - I am now ready to provide my assistance again.

This brings up the ever questioned question (Lol.) - Why did you leave? I was asked to cover what I've done and where I've been since my departure by the current manager. So here goes nothing.. I left because these past few years have been really rough, and I had a lot to figure out in my life. When I created this place I was only 13 or 14 I believe, most likely the latter. So I wasn't really aware of what I was truly taking on, and I found that I never had time whilst I was trying to make things ok for me again. Well, things never got ok, but that's cool - I made a major move (Not my choice, but hey.. Haha.) back to England from Florida, so please make a note of the new ti... ]]> ~PoeticParadise http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/7026927/ http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/7026927/ Sat, 12 Nov 2005 12:17:42 PST Jeslica666 and I, ~crazynloveless have decided that we would start a Favorites Feature section.

We will choose two deviations each month that we feel should be favorited by ~PoeticParadise, and they will be and featured in this journal.

Each one chosen will recieve a description from whoever chose it. Hopefully this will get more people involved and interested, word might spread a little bit. Not only that, but we will be helping someone get noticed in a feature who truly deserves it.

The two favorites will begin this month, of November, and will be posted when we come across them. ]]> ~PoeticParadise http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/6924380/ http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/6924380/ Tue, 01 Nov 2005 09:24:32 PST

Group Collaboration is when we pick 4 topics for a poem and you can write one stanza for one of the poems. Each poem will have 4 stanzas. We will take the first 4 stanzas we get for one topic and put them togethor to make one poem. We will submit it so everyone can see. This is a first come first serve basis. If you are chosen to be in one of the poems it is likely that you will not be in the next round of "Group Callaboration" because we want everyone to have a chance to do this.

Topics:

1. After The Sun Set

2. Holding On

3. Change

4. Hiding

You can only write one stanza for the poem, note PoeticParadise with the stanza and a link to its place on your deviant page. You should title the topic of the note with the topic you picked to write the stanza for.

Ex:
Title: Change
(body)
(link to stanza)

You must submit your stanza in your scraps or at least anywere on your page. Where you write your description for the submission you must write that it is for the "Group Collaboration" for poeticParadise. We also ask that you provide a link to this journal. (Just copy and paste the pages URL.)

If all goes well with this we might do it once a week! We are PoeticParadise so I think we should show our poeticness!!

If you have any questions please ask in a comment, or note the club. We will be happy to give you any answers you need!

------

UPDATE

We are NOT getting that many entries for "Group Collaboration" if you want to do this please send in your stanzas now. We will close "Group Collaboration" if we do not get any entries in.

General Info:

Hello!

This is the page where you can learn about how to join Poetic Paradise. I would normally ask that for you to join, you be a writer... But then my admin and I thought 'What if others would like to critique, but aren't writers themselves?'. I've decided that you don't have to be a dedicated writer to join the club.

I ask that for you to join you send the club a note, and place a DevWatch on the club so that you stay informed of all updates, and any other special events listed in journals. The club will also have deviations, so please make sure that when you place your DevWatch you specify such.

In your note please state why you would like to join the club, and a few suggestions such as things you would like to see happen in the club. Or events, contests, or other such things. I am a very open-minded person, and love diversity.

Title your note : Membership Request.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. *^.^*

I will try to get back to all membership requests within 24 hours.

I'm so sorry, but Poetic Paradise is being closed by me, the owner, unless someone else would like to take over the responsibility.

Firstly because I haven't been as dedicated as I should be, and I'd rather end it than screw it all up.

Secondly because I need to really pay attention in school right now, a lot of registration is going on, finals for the nine weeks just gone.

Thirdly, I just don't know how to run the place... Which kind of makes me wonder why I started it in the first place.

If you are interested in taking over ownership then please note me at ~ crazynloveless (Chloë)

Once again, I'm REALLY sorry!!

Love To You All,
Chloë Bianca ]]> ~PoeticParadise http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/4567978/ http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/4567978/ Thu, 10 Mar 2005 17:13:52 PST [link] Join Poetic Paradise [link] Member/Admin. List [link] Announcements [link] Contest Information

Hello!

Welcome to Poetic Paradise... You have somehow stumbled across a poetry club in the makings. *^.^*

Poetic Paradise is a club for poets and other writers alike. We are a community where you can share your writings, recieve critique, and friendly comments. If you're lookkng to share pieces, read others works, or just make a friend you've come to the right place!

Please view the Contest Information link to find out about winners, and other special circumstances!

Poetic Paradise has joined up with * PoetryPlease to form one chat for poets to come together and talk at. The chat's name is: #poetryplease.

Instead of doing the Favorite Of The Week deviation I will be taking one deviation from each member every week to post here. Each person will recieve a seperate deviation, the poem you choose to post can either be already on DeviantART or one that is not. I hope to be recieving plenty of notes with poems/songs in them to post!!

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to note the staff members or the club itself:

There is no clear winner for this contest, as each person only recieved one vote. I'm going to extend the voting time by one week, so it will end on the 17th. I'm sorry for making the contestants wait even longer, but... I'm sure you want to know who wins!

---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ------

Yes this is new, I wasn't sure when to start a contest, or how.. But here I am all the same attempting to start one up. If you're interested in being on my "Contest Staff" (Who will be given access to the userpage to update all contest information, ideas, voting information, etc.) please note me!

<sub>Theme: Stereotypes. Use your imagination, I didn't specify further because I'm not limiting you further.

1) All entries should be a form of poetry, NOT prose. (No style specified)
2) Entries under 30 lines long. (I really hope this is enough, I know some write long pieces!)
3) Please stay on topic. (A given! Haha.)
4) You need to be a member to submit!</sub>

SUBMITTING

<sub>End of submissions: February 28th

1) Link me to one of your deviations in a note.
If it isn't in a note.. I WILL NOT accept it.
2) Title your note "Contest Entry" or something along those lines.
**To link one of your deviations copy the URL and paste it**</sub> ]]> ~PoeticParadise http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/4325029/ http://PoeticParadise.deviantart.com/journal/4325029/ Wed, 09 Nov 2005 18:35:14 PST Joining info [link] Member/Admin list [link] Poems [link] Affiliates [link] Poet of the Month Winner for July [link] Poet of the Month information [link]

It will be titled "Round Robin Collaboration".


I need help with this group. I am busy now with school and I don't have as much time on my hands to run it as I did in the summer. So please if anyone can lend some time to help out the group and run it alittle please note the group.

Ok I have gotten many letters wnating to help with the group. I really do need to talk to the people who want to help with it and not just go by note. So if you are REALLY interested and you really want to help out with things and get the group running more please IM me. My aim name is on the man page and if you dont have aim my msn is vet2bbeth@hotmail.com and if you dont have ANY of those two I have yahoo and the name for that is SpiritoDev.
