Into the deepest reach,
The unfettered mind falls…
Trying to leap,
To guide,
To know all.
Into the winding gyre,
Transient feelings are mixed…
Trying to find,
To feel,
To be all.
Into the darkest reaches,
Beyond the light fantastic,
Into the realm of wishes,
Into the deep domain of the heart…
We travel,
And in the journey,
Understand.

Manage and Schedule Journal Drafts in Studio
Journal drafts are joining the party in the Studio! Previously, unfinished drafts of journals could only be found in the Posts tab on your Profile, but with this and a few other quality-of-life improvements, Studio is the one-stop place to manage needs of both your visual and written deviation drafts!
Manage Journal Drafts
In the Drafts section of your Studio, navigate to the "Journals" tab at the top, right next to "Media" and "Literature," and make any edits you need. Journal drafts are still available in their previous home in Profile > Posts > and selecting "Drafts" from the dropdown.
Schedule Journals
As with other types of content, you can now schedule journal drafts through your Studio. Simply go to Drafts > Journals > Click the “...” on the far right of the draft > Select "Schedule," and set your preferred publish time. You can also bulk schedule by checking the boxes to the left of each item and selecting from the "Edit" menu.

Gift exclusives to your supporters!
Introducing a new way to show your appreciation and build stronger connections with your fans with a heARTfelt gift!
Deviants love gifting exclusives to one another, and now creators can gift adoptables and other one-of-a-kind creations directly to supporters.
What is a supporter?
Supporters are deviants who have bought an Exclusive, Premium Download, or Subscription tier, or resold an Exclusive from you. Since these are the fans who truly value your work, they're the perfect recipients for your exclusive gifts!
Which exclusives can be gifted?
Sellers can gift exclusives they've created that have not yet been sold. To be eligible for gifting, the exclusive must be listed at a fixed price and available for resale.
When you list an exclusive for sale, you’ll find “Give as a gift” as an option.
Clicking the button brings up a list of your supporters to choose from, where you can choose the lucky recipient.
After their username is selected, your recipient will receive an

you pierced
the darkness
and parted
the veil of
my shadow;
the gentle
strength of
sunbeams-
the beauty
of pure gold
where others
would have
taken me
into irons
of obsession
you came
to me with
sweet
honeyed
kisses;
a healing
hand and
a heart of
sincere
gold.
