LiliWrites currently has a contest going that is pretty cool, so instead of just giving you the prompt, I thought I'd link you over in case anybody wants to enter.
She says: Write a poem or short story that is set in a past period. You could write about the roaring 20s, or the ancient Samurai of Japan, or the horrific events of the World Wars. I don't care what period you choose, but make it come alive on the page (well, screen
).
:thumb410906801:
So here's a list of additional periods as ideas:
*The gay 90's (1890's - they were gay cause people were happy, mmk? If you're in the UK, it's the Naughty Nineties.)
*One of the Chinese Dynasties. Perhaps one of the emperors.
*Ancient Egypt
*Motown
*Age of Enlightenment
*British Raj (India)
*Ottoman Empire
*Early Space Age (late 1960's, early 70's)
*Cavemen
If anyone does this, make sure to also drop it in the group!

Glory Be 2018 - News Updates
Hello everyone :heart:
November walked in with silent feet, and we've began our final count-down of days in 2017.
I can't hardly believe it's already that time again, can you? A whole new year is looming closer, and with that a whole new year of ideas growing and writing awaiting; and though Glory Be has dwindled to a core group remaining, and only once in a while new members taking up the challenge (I salute you all), the group will certainly stay open for you in 2018.
Though, with some small changes (:
Both your captains, dear Shirokibo (https://www.deviantart.com/shirokibo) and I, are going to refrain from the weekly Weekend Inspiration and Visualisation journals, and

Here's wishing you a Happy New Year! :heart:

Contests, Prompts and more (:
Hello everyone,
Curating a short journal for some currents bibs and bobs of inspiration in the forms
of contests and prompts that are alive in dA lit-land as we speak.
The wonderful Chezzy-Am (https://www.deviantart.com/chezzy-am) is hosting a Writer's Arsenal contest, with lots of good prizes.
Over at Understood-Accepted (https://www.deviantart.com/understood-accepted) they are holding a Feelings contest, combining both the written as the visual arts.
July is Flash Fiction Month, so if you feel like flexing those muscles, there's still time to jump in.
And if you're looking for smaller things to tackle, have a look at our Glory-Be-Project (https://www.deviantart.com/glory-be-project) latest prompt
