Welcome to Striking Muse! Welcome to Striking Muse! If your muse strikes you, you've come to the right place to express it! See below for important comm info, as well as getting to know your moderators. With enough members, I hope to maybe one day start some contests and challenges, and maybe some request-a-thons as well. If we grow big enough, well then... they sky can be the limit! For now, however, striking_muse is here as a community for writers, artists, and others to share, grow, learn, and make friends. Other than that, look around, have fun, and remember - always listen to your muse!

Note - When Posting
Large pics and fics need to be behind a cut - when displaying work, post a small description of what it is you're posting. If there are any warnings, please make them known and bold. Anything explicit needs to have a very clear, bold warning, and must be behind a cut, no matter the length.
Don't forget, you're here to help make striking_muse what it is, so if you have interests to add to the userinfo page, let me know. If you have an idea for a contest/challenge/thon, let me know. If you have any ideas, questions, comments, WHATEVER, let me know! We're here as a community.
Also, if you look to the left at the links, you'll see two sections: Member Showcase, and Places of Interest.
Member Showcase links are any links submitted by members that have your work displayed, showcased, or archived. Websites, archives, mass-archive sites like fictionpress.net or skyehawke, blogs, magazines, contests you've won, whatever. If you work is there, your link is here!
Places Of Interest are just that - websites, blogs, etc that are resources or interesting places that have to do with writers or artists. Submit these links as well, if you know one that isn't here.
