Time for Literature
We have been working on building up a beautiful gallery of literary deviations - those of you who are writers are probably well aware that it can be lonely on :dA: because the writing community can sometimes be overshadowed by the visual arts (as evidenced by the demographic of the Daily Deviations, for instance.)
There are a whole multitude of scintillating writers who don't get the limelight they deserve simply because few people know about them - today, we make an effort to pay tribute to your hard work and the wonderful literature that is the result.

pardonM3 specialises in poetry for the most part, though her gallery features some deviations of the photographic nature. Her poetry is full of astounding images offering up a lyrical view into her world. Her way with words is uncommon and beautifully original; every piece will come to life as you read it.
- this last one,
(yours for the taking the breaking the baking
i would have given you anything.), is a collaboration with the next deviant featured, ~
oalicein.

oalicein has a gritty, no-nonsense style which gives rise to poetry full of such blistering honesty it is difficult not to be touched by the emotions and issues raised by his work. Every poem is a satisfying, thought-provoking read which brings into question our established views, every stanza brimming with inspiring and challenging ideas.

ottersandsky deals with many issues and ideas with wonderful humanity - every poem is studded with incandescent images that stay with you long after the reading is over. She has talent in truckloads - one is tempted to think that she has poetry woven into her very being - and has recently been furnished with a well-deserved Daily Deviation in recognition.

Blueskye27 is an amazingly supportive member of the literature community, with a well-versed ability in creating wonder out of situations which might seem mundane to you or I. She is adventurous and keen to try her hand at different poetical forms, and peppers her writing with intense feelings and outstanding devices, exploring life with delicious metaphors and delightful sensuality.

skerd22 has a novel take on everything - his work reads like a breath of fresh air - happy to engage in wordplay, to flip emotion inside-out so as to explore their meaning. He deals with various sentiments with a delicate touch, smoothly introducing different perspectives with a quirky outlook.

cypriphobia is a pillar of the literary community, tirelessly running challenges which ignite the minds of many poets on dA - thanks must be given for the many stunning literary pieces which might never have come into existence if it wasn't for her encouragement. She herself writes superb poetry packed with surprising juxtaposition of words and even as you read, her ideas become real in a completely tangible way.

One senses that ~
airchildstrega's world is as full of wonder as her poetry is full of delightful interpretation. Her unique take on things is idiosyncratic and astonishing; her words are alive with the sentiments she imbues them with and rouse the reader into the consideration of new stances.

emotionaltulip's pieces are alternately imbued with poignant melancholy and whimsical depictions. She deals with emotion in a tragically lovely manner that pulls at your heartstrings (how could it not?) and turns over intense images like stones, all the while searching for answers.

More to come at a later date.
