Hello there everyone! :wave:

So, it's been a whole two and a half months since I've posted a journal on here, which is devastatingly slack on my part. I am sorry for my absence. A combination of end-of-semester exams, illness and family commitments meant that I haven't been on dA much at all, regularly, since last September. But, nevertheless, I am back and ready to get things rolling over here.

First off, welcome new members, welcome back old members and hello to everyone out there in the dA lit world!! :)

Secondly, I have received some comments from members saying that this group has just become a "deviation dump", and other things along those lines, and I'm sorry to say that, honestly, it kind of did seem like that, didn't it? Well, that is going to change from now on.

I have three projects I am wanting to get started this month.

  • 1) The Monthly Writing Challenges - Each month I will post a new prompt, and you will have until the end of that month to write something in response and submit it to the group's gallery. At the end of the month, a winner will be decided by both the judges and a poll for you guys to vote on and that winner will become We-Write-To-Escape's Deviant of the Month and be featured on the home page of the group for a whole month, among other prizes.

    • February's Writing Challenge is to Write a Letter to Your Best Friend. I will post the official journal soon, so look out for it!

      • If you have any suggestions for future prompts, please comment on here with them and I will add them to a list!

  • 2) I want to run another big contest in June/July this year, and am looking for suggestions as to what it should be about!

    • If you have any thoughts, please comment and I will add them to another list! :)

  • 3) You know those In Need of Critiques and Critiqued folders that never get used? Yeah, well, I want to get them running again. I want to get the We-Write-To-Escape Critiquing system up and running again.

    • So I'd love an expression of interest for that. Who here would be interested in submitting their works (premium membership or no) for critiquing?


Well, that's all for now. February's Writing Challenge will be up in a journal really soon. Make sure you check it out for all the details on how to participate!! I swear it'll be worth it!

As always, keep writing!

Your founder,
