This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The left side has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a subscription.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a subscription.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
...H..HEY! EMILY! Bet you don't remember me. =3 It's Tara, remember, your sister and I were buds back in the day? Wow, I miss you guys. Like, hardcore. How are you? How's Anna? Is she going to college? Get back to me kiddo. =3
But glad to know that you are getting back into the poem business. I don't plan to ever quit, poetry, though there are definately long periods of time -- even months even, when i even forget to write poetry.
Anyways inspiration is entirely subjective, and I'm pretty sure what I'm going to tell you now will be quite different from whatever I told you last year.. hehe.
I have dived deep into visual arts this year, and discovered that it is quite the same inspiration that stimulates me to start a painting or a poem. I just have to decide which artistry is more suitable for what I am trying to express.
I realized that the social environment around me really does inspire me. It depends on what kind of people you hang out with, I suppose. Artists inspire artists, writers inspire writers, and vice versa. Sometimes me and my friend, Lara just go to each other's houses to just draw and write together. There are these collaborative poems that you can do - like each person writes every other line... it could be just completely random. Or sometimes you can collaborate poetry. Me and ~MystWilliams used to do that a lot.. and we'd each write verses and combine it into one narrative poem.
Chuck palahnuik once said something like "when it all comes down to it, twenty years later, you'd wish you didn't spend all those hours writing by yourself. Trust me. Writing can be like a party. Write with other people, collaborate.. exchange ideas...."
I kind of believe in that.
However, there are times when the best writing comes suddenly and most unexpectedly in the middle of the night. When you start pondering about things and all the sudden you remember that one life-changing long lost child hood memory and it makes all the difference, or you suddenly realize a huge philiosophical insight.
Adventure is also a great way to kill writers block. This could be as simple as taking a walk, and just walking through a tangled ravine listening to the beatles on repeat, letting the lyrics gush through your veins and then suddenly sitting down, opening your poetry journal and pouring everything all out. all the woes and desires and stresses and joys of life being emtied out from the single tip of a dancing pen. Or maybe experience the cultures of the world. Take a journal everywhere, when you travel. Travel and experiencial education is always the most memorable.
however, the main thing that get me really inspired to write is nothing less than ..haha crushes or love. Maybe I am too much of a romanticist, but recently something amazing happened, i kind of found a muse, and now I am inspired tenfold.
Or perhaps just extreme states of emotion. Like when you feel really really happy or heart broker, try writing it all out and maybe formatting it into structured poetry later.
But then again.. there is always many volumes of poetry and many books that are inspiring, and provide great examples of great writing.
I'll name you some of the things that inspire me most.
the book "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" - Jonathan Safran Foer (its a life changing book, and i highly reccomend it)
the book "the Prophet" - kahlil Gibran - acollection of poems about philosophy and humanity and many things. It's a must read.
this poetry SLAM [link] that is extremely inspiring.
Chuck Palahnuik is a great writer.
Yeah.. i hope that was helpful.
just keep trying new things. inspiration comes when you least expect it.. in all forms and experimentation is one of the main thigns that make you a better writer.
thats just my two cents.
