"FULL" by ChronoC-VII
There is a shadowy quality to this
piece both revealing and distorting.
Self-Discovery presented with a strength
yet leaving faint traces of doubt. Doubt
that is relieved by a forceful end.
Definitely worth the read.

Mystery Girl.Awoken from a dream so sweet, he stands. Confused,
his memory hazy, haunted by a nagging feeling. Something,
someone dear to him, is absent from his side. Urgent,
his dream forgotten, is his quest for her. Frantic,
he fears her lost to him forever. And then,
There!
She rests, under the boughs of a great tree. Relief,
flows through his veins and warms his heart. Shrouded,
is her face, though her smile shines brightly. Lightly,
they touch, their words quiet and heartfelt. Slowly,
the man opens his eyes, realizes from the start. He was,
Dreaming.
Yet still he quests, searches for her, until he can put her gentle hands to his heart and rest in the warmth of her loving smile.
"Mystery Girl." by Corwin-Morrindale
A beautiful poem telling of a beautiful
girl, based off a dream the author had. The
images are lovely and mystical, very much
like a dream. And the poem as a whole
is a nice read.

"Broken Messiahs" by DownwardsSaint
The morbid events of this story
catch you by surprise with the deceptive
ease of the dialog. Well-written and
thought-provoking, this piece will make
you want to read and reread it many
times over.

"The Best Defence" by MetalMagpie
An incredibly written story about three
soldiers in the midst of a losing battle on
a planet far from our own. Even though they
know there is no chance, they fight with
courage and blind bravery. An amazing
sci-fi military story, but one that
any reader will enjoy.

Okay, here goes...
Many comments have been made, many people have hauled off and jumped and are now wondering what is really going on, many tears have been cried (at least by me cuz y'all--y'all are mean. Enough said about that, it doesn't matter. I wish everyone all of the best and more.
I would like to take a few minutes to say two things:
1) Many have come through DLD and been better in this literature community for it. Dedication and hard work helped forward their already progressing talent. Not me, not Will, not Lili or any other running administrator--just dedication and hard work. We have present and former hats, badges and most of all the owners of co
Will's Final Words
Final Words
It is with a hesitant mind and a bloated heart that I write this. DailyLitDeviations (https://www.deviantart.com/dailylitdeviations) was something that was formed out of frustration and anger. I suppose I am not surprised to see it go out that way. A young man named Brandon and I were complaining in a private chat room about how little literature was featured on dA and that we were tired of it. We both wrote several emails to the staff only to be ignored like so many quality artists out there. Eventually we knew that we had to do something or explode from frustration. And so DLD was born. I stayed up for 5 or 7 days straight. My wife hated me and my phone bill went throug
New Information...
It seems that all of you in need of seeing this tradition go on can be satisfied. I would direct you to the account of TheseKrimzonFlames (https://www.deviantart.com/thesekrimzonflames) where you will find links to a new account where his version of DLD will go on in a new and different form.
I am awaiting a journal entry from VertigoArt (https://www.deviantart.com/vertigoart) to post here with his thoughts on our closing of this particular project. It will be posted soonest.
Few know of my own love and time put into this project because few worked night and day alongside me to take care of everything possible from general administration duties to contests, to answering 100s of messages a day and soliciting everywhere p
Everyone, please hold on...
Please be advised that we are in the process of deciding what and how to do with this account by way of moving on--by "we" I mean myself, VertigoArt (https://www.deviantart.com/vertigoart), and various seniors/members that are interested in sticking with something DLD or DLD-like. Everyone's responses are being taken into consideration--even the personal attacks made on me are valued opinions. This account owns a number of points and I am considering doling them out to a group of people who would like to start-up a new group in the same vein. A group of people who are concerned with the work of the literature community and not the kudos that go with serving the community. I ha
