Group Info

Stories were being told before writing even existed. Here's ours.


Rightly or wrongly, it's hard to be a writer on deviantART. It's hard to get noticed. It's hard to get feedback.


Back in the day, of course, writing was easy. Chaucer made up words as he went. Shakespeare didn't have to worry about whether anyone had seen his drunken facebook update. Dickens wasn't suffocated by a World of Warcraft addiction. Kipling didn't have to try to export Word Documents as HTML.


We, the internet generation, are trying to find our legs as Writers - and it's tough.


This group is on a mission to change that. When we first started, we wanted to create a place where writers could share work, exchange ideas, and collaborate on exciting new projects.


After months of building up a membership, we're ready to turn a set of members into a community.


Keep an eye out on our blog and features to see how we're trying to unite writers together, and see what you can do to make your mark.

     Before I get into the details about our rule changes, let me start off by introducing myself! As some of you may be aware, this group is moving forward with a new founder (and admin team!)...:paranoid: That person would be me! I'm Medoriko, the new founder for this group <3 I have been a member of this group for quite some time, and it is an honor to have been chosen to lead things going forward. I look forward to getting to know you lovely folks, the ones I don't already know :giggle: Now, with that said, onto the core of these rule changes. Don't worry, there's not much! Rule Changes as of August 30th, 2019: :bulletpurple: We will now

    WritersInk is a group striving to improve deviantART's literature experience - for readers AND writers. We think the way to achieve this is by building a community of positive feedback, open contribution, and love. A community based on regular features which rewards those who contribute most. We know how hard it is to be a writer, and we want to help. Back in the day, of course, it was easy. Chaucer made up words as he went. Shakespeare didn't have to worry about whether anyone had seen his drunken facebook update. Dickens wasn't suffocated by a World of Warcraft addiction. We, the internet generation, are trying to find our legs as writers

    I'm back to DA after a long absence, and submissions are now being voted on again! Make sure to read the group rules to submit in the proper folder and avoid your deviation being declined!
    www.facebook.com/groups/341314…

    We are looking for animators and writers
    *sigh* out of all the groups on DA, this one was the one to introduce me to the lit community and get me excited to read/share poetry. Really is a shame that it's wasting away.
    No hate intended btw. Just genuinely sad about my favorite corner of DA.
    We still active?
    Yes... kinda. I was cleaning folders yesterday since I noticed lots of misplaced deviations.  ^^'
    Cool...I asked because I still have several deviations that are waiting for approval from...a while ago. 
    Submissions only expire after a month, so don't worry about that. And in case they'll expire we can still request back, but it shouldn't happen.
