Deviation Actions
EDIT:
Yes, sign-ups for Literature Roadtrip 2.0 are now closed. There are so many of you, and I am so happy because of this. (Though this does mean it will be more difficult to choose for the first three days! Ah!) But I look forward to travelling around deviantART and discovering some amazing literature. I will be spending the next few days narrowing down everything. A timetable will be posted on January 9th. And everyone will receive their list of deviants around the same time, as well as some more information, through notes/messages.
Get excited fellow deviants!
----------
Back in June 2013 I created the first ever 'Literature Roadtrip'. I have had a number of requests to do another one, and have finally found the time to host it. However, this time round, 'Literature Roadtrip' will be a little different - it has evolved. But the focus is still on bringing exposure to a large number of deviants. I will be favouriting, commenting on and critiquing various deviant's works, as well as featuring them in my personal journal. Additionally, I will be suggesting pieces for DLDs and DDs.
Excitingly, the week before the 'Literature Roadtrip' (which will begin on January 10th 2014) I wish to interview a number of deviants.
I would greatly appreciate if you could share this journal entry, so more people know about this exciting opportunity.
----------
How 'Literature Roadtrip 2.0' Will Work This Time:
The week before the 'Literature Roadtrip' (January 3rd to January 9th) I will be interviewing a number of deviants about the literature community, their writing process, etc.
The actual 'Literature Roadtrip' will last for five days - from January 10th to January 14th.
- Friday, January 10th: Three [3] deviants will receive a minimum of five comments on their work, an unlimited number of favourites and a special feature on my personal journal.
- Saturday, January 11th: Three [3] deviants will receive a minimum of five comments on their work, an unlimited number of favourites and a special feature on my personal journal.
- Sunday, January 12th: Three [3] deviants will receive a minimum of five comments on their work, an unlimited number of favourites and a special feature on my personal journal.
- Monday, January 13th: Deviants who were not chosen for the first three days of the roadtrip will receive a comment on their work and three of their pieces featured in my personal journal.
- Tuesday, January 14th: A journal feature for suggested deviants.
Lastly, on January 15th 2014, there will be a journal entry to round up the roadtrip. There will also be a special surprise revealed for all you lovely deviants!
----------
What Else Will Participants Receive?
As well as receiving comments, favourites and features, participants will also receive:
- A Long-Time Buddy - whenever you want to chat, I am only a note away. Especially during this time. Want to discuss a story idea? Having some writing trouble? Send me a note and we can discuss it.
- A list of other deviants to check out during the 'Literature Roadtrip', so you can comment and favourite their work too.
- After the roadtrip, if you want me to critique or comment on more of your work I will be happy to negotiate something.
----------
How To Sign-Up:
Comment below, and tell me why you would like me to include you in this roadtrip. Also include at least three deviants you think I should be checking out.
Only nine deviants will be chosen for the first three days, but everyone else will still be part of the 'Literature Roadtrip' on January 13th.

Please Sign Up Before January 7th 2014.
