Every Sunday this article will aim to promote volunteer opportunities, various resources, prompts, challenges, and workshops, as well as highlighting various contests, and spotlighting a specific group every week. This is by no means a complete list of all the literature going-ons, merely a tool to help you get involved and stay informed.
This weeks group spotlight is #TheWritingHaven!

The contest deadline has been extended to June 10th! There will be no further extensions, so get your entries in ASAP!
It's a common complaint...
Particularly for our newer members. "I've set up my profile...now where do I go?"
May's contest aims to answer that question. Your challenge is to create a tutorial aimed at deviantART's new members that shows them as much of the site as possible. Think about when you were new - what areas of the site did you discover only after blundering around? What areas did someone else point out to you? What do you wish you had known as a new member that seems like common knowledge now?

I won't be around for the first part of July at all..
So I've been checking back periodically on this group!
I have said I'd feature the winners, but... it looks like I may not be able to do that before I am leaving,
but instead I will at least promote the group again on my Profile Page's Journal, before I go,
and try to do the features, sometime after I am back.
Good luck with everything!
We are in the process of judging the contest and I hope to announce the winners this week
If you are gone by the time the judging is completed a feature after you return would be sensational
The group is doing really good
Jo
I really like this group a lot, but hadn't seen anything in a while,
so I am really happy to know the group is going well!
Looks like by the time I might do another profile journal will be end of July, so hopefully I will do the feature then!
Tea
And......
Thank you so much Tea
