Let’s keep the fun going through the end of the year with an entire month of Daily Challenges tags in December suggested by Deviants!

Welcome to CRLiterature! This December, we’re discovering a desert world filled with magic that has forgotten the wonders of winter in our “Legend of Snow” weekly activities. ❄️ Follow the prompts below to build out your own version of this fantasy universe with a little magic and a lot of fun for your chance to win DA points or badges! 🏅   ❄️The Legend of Snow, Part 1: ❄️ The desert is unrelenting as you make your daily march to the only well within hundreds of miles. From more than a mile away, you can already see the snaking lines of people queuing for their daily water allotment, already knowing it is never enough to crush that gnawing sense of dehydration in the pit of your stomach, but it is just enough that you won’t collapse while scavenging for food. As you make your way down the hard scrabble path from the rocky outcrop you’ve called home for 20 years, a small boulder slides from under your feet, sending you toppling forward and onto your hands and knees. As you recover

Blue Eye Samurai on Netflix is a visually striking animated series with a gripping storyline, unique characters, and powerful themes like identity, honour, and vengeance. Set in Edo-era Japan, the eponymous blue-eyed samurai, Mizu, embarks on a relentless quest for vengeance. In a society that values purity and conformity above all else, the mixed-race Mizu is an outcast, experiencing deep-rooted prejudice and abuse at every turn. Demonised by society, Mizu's insatiable need for revenge against those responsible for her origin begins to threaten her very humanity. This week's Fan Art Friday feature pays tribute to Mizu's unforgettable journey - her strength, determination, and vulnerability - with some amazing fan art created by the community. An artist gives all they have to the art, the whole. Your strengths and deficiencies, your loves and shames. Perhaps the people you collected. - The Swordfather If one god forsakes you, another one will help you. - Akemi To a man

It is time to feature more tutorials and undiscovered art! :dummy: As usual, the feature will be divided into two parts. The first part includes tutorials on how to design characters and creatures, and the second part is a selection of artwork I’ve discovered recently with fewer than 50 favourites. Previous features are linked at the bottom of the journal, and I post a new feature each month on my profile, usually around the 15th :la: This month, we'll focus on an art form which can be a bit hidden on DA, namely writing. There are a lot of good stories, fan fiction and poetry out there, though - as well as some excellent tutorials on writing! First, we'll start with... well, story writing. @illuminara and @OokamiKasumi start us off by giving some tips on how to start writing in general, as well as giving some beginner tips. illuminara also has an enlightening guide on how to write your first draft, and then @MomoPoms gives some great advice on how to write good fanfiction
