There are a few works in my gallery that have gotten next to no views nor comments. I have been wondering about that a fair bit, as everyone seems to avoid them. That's why I would like to ask you: what makes you skip them if you view the gallery?

I just went through my favorites for whipping together a good feature list, but it seems my favorites policy played against me. I like commenting and fav'ing deviations that are somewhat lost in the mainstream - but I very nearly never fave the really popular ones.

Which means all the awesome pieces I came accross are not in there Now that DA enables us to categorize favorites, I think I will reorganize them and add a "popular" category so that I can at least keep track of those works as well...

Anyhow, I went through what I had so far for a small featurette until I have it all sorted.

While I like the festivities that come with a new year, nothing really changes, does it? We are all still the same, except maybe for some good resolutions that most of us will not stick to. I guess it is okay to try though

I realized it is important to have projects for the future, even if they seem overwhelming - like building a home for your family or a daring financial venture like starting your own company. It gives me something to ponder, to turn around in my head.

Yes, I think this year will be good. It will be a lot of work, but an adventure nonetheless. We only have one life to live, so let's try to achieve something for ourselves and those around us.

I have not written in quite a while, and even if I am a bit rusty, I am glad to see I still have enough wild ideas. The current result is the short story "Crystalline Trouble" that you can read here on DA.

It is loosely based on the MMOG EVE Online, and focuses on an aspect of the game that there is next to no information on, namely the relation between pilots and their crews.

I would love to hear what you think - I would like to see this as a work in progress, and continue improving / evolving it. There are two parts so far, judging from the planned events I will add another three to that at least. Part three is currently in the works.
