Wow, I love this... I feel I can relate to so much that you have said here... One day I'd like to be brave enough to share my work with my friends and loved ones. I think this is a very good exercise and will definately be checking out your other pieces...

This... this is me. I'm just saying. And I so want to know your characters one day. Maybe you'll show us who they are?
To answer your question in the end, yes it is. It's funny how with each character I write of my own, a piece of me is there. Just a small bit. It's how I know my characters are mine.
And you're right about the characters. Renee's a writer (obvious, I know) but both she and Frankie have a few of my insecurities. Aisha's my opposite- an extroverted party girl. But there's a piece of me in there too. I guess that's part of why our writing is so personal. They're our babies.

Fanfiction has always been an arena to me - somewhere I go to challenge myself and be seen. Somewhere I can learn and develop my skills with the help of my peers.
But I feel like I'm ready to get 'real'. I feel like my characters are ready to be seen and heard. All I want is to make a living off of something I love. Is that too much to ask of The Universe?

This newsletter was "born" back in March 2007, from a conversation between ~Lareth and =FrozenStarRo, who with the help of their friends *Iardacil and =Sylwiaa , wanted to make something to promote known and unknown photomanipulators alike here on DeviantArt. As of September 2009 =ImaginaryRosse joined the project and will be helping us out with the weekly choices. While things have changed over time, the essence of the newsletter is still the same. As of recent, the talented =Behana has joined us in bringing you this weekly newsletter and we are excited to have her on board. This is a special feature, with a selection of 50 manips from the past year that we loved.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Although `DEVlANT joined our community only a year ago, he's made sure to make his mark in as many ways as possible.

His inquisitive mind and enthusiastic personality is reflected in every part of the community which he reaches out to. Always eager to bring suggestions and feedback to us in a positive way, `DEVlANT shows a maturity way beyond his years. It's with great pleasure that we award very first Deviousness of 2010 t...

I think that a lot of writers could relate to this. We aren't so different, after all.

The voices in Rose's head think you're insane.
You're going to like Bree.

Ah, not too much to ask. As I said- we seem to have moved in different directions when it comes to fanfiction.
