Contest Update
Just a few days left to go! Get your entries in NOW!
A recent discovery of the very innovative idea from Alex Valentine on Four Line Long Poems has prompted a mini-revolution here on deviantART as 3wyl and I plotted and schemed to create something not dissimilar to SixWordStories. Thus, FourLinePoems was born! It's a group that's completely open to everyone and anyone who would like to join and the exciting news is that, with its launch, we are announcing the first Four Line Poem Competition!
Dates
Contest Open: 15th December 2012, Midnight PST.
Contest Close: 15th January 2013, Midnight PST.
Winners Announcement: After 1st February
Rules & Examples
Four Line Poems are exactly that - just four lines long!
One entry per person.
Entries must be newly submitted to deviantART, in Literature Format: FAQ #79: How do I submit art?
Entries must contain only four words. Only one contraction, such as "Don't", is allowed.
The Author's Description on the deviation must include: FourLinePoems' Competition (Or you can copy and paste: :devfourlinepoems:' Competition)
There are many examples of how a Four Line Poem works, but, simply, it is four words presented clearly and succinctly that tell a story or make a statement.
For example:
Nine Play
Nine Ball
Nine Like
Help Pele
Traditionally, each word is just four letters long and you can stick to that pattern if you wish, but it's not a requirement.
Prizing
6 Months Premium Membership to DeviantART & 500 & Front Page Feature at FourLinePoems each for the Top Three Winners.
3 Months Premium Membership to DeviantART & 250 each for Ten Honourable Mentions.

Sometimes when you're not looking...
The best things pop up in your newsfeed. And oh my gosh I've been getting to know my newsfeed again today. Things actually appear in there. I'm ashamed to say that when I was a CV a lot of the time it became a click and delete activity, because there was so much. I lost touch with people, I lost touch with a lot of what I wanted to do and what I was interested in. So with this in mind, I found Farand (https://www.deviantart.com/farand)'s latest journal really poignant as he shared this quote...
"The important point for us is to realise that we are basically good. Our only problem is that sometimes we don't actually acknowledge that goodness. We don't see it, so we blame
Nom Nom 89#
This time around, the Tasty Nom has been suggested by cookielover17 (https://www.deviantart.com/cookielover17) who suggested that I put together a feature of Childhood Nostalgia images. It's hard to do because we've all likely had so many different memories across the world, but here are just a few I found when I searched! What are your favourite childhood treats and recipes?

This is where I leave you
I just love dramatic titles. I'm not leaving you though, but yes today is the day that things change after such a long time.
I started my Volunteer career on DeviantArt in July 2010. So that means I've been floating around your inboxes, DDing, writing articles and doing lots of photography related shenanigans for over half a decade. Of course, I started out long before that but offically and all that, it's been over five years.
Half a decade. A Demi-Decade. Five years. I have to say that it has flown by. From the day that I first pestered moonbeam13 (https://www.deviantart.com/moonbeam13) into letting me oversee a gallery that technically wasn't vacant (Abstract and Surreal
