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.

Gold by LucienRising, literature
Literature
Gold
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.
Figured It Out by Redsterfish, literature
Literature
Figured It Out
Dog is watching us... repeat three times
Telling about Transportation
and about strong vines
Another religious technically situation
Semi senile dementing conversation
Rainaldo in the Ting Ting
Hacking around his nest
Still there is something funny around
Scholar night of the proms
in a sour land
the stand
and the movement of bam bam sons
Being on the job
scratching the unwanted ghosts out
Out and about
Tomorrow the mob
Or having fun with alcohol
the proper cultivated serious legalized liquid
Other designer drugs in the lab made of squid
and fish - powder, for they stole
All telephone numbers
frog spawn and mumblers
Miles Davis the bunny with a blow horn
putting all the love in, to be reborn
Running over glowing embers
spending all the money for dope
Skin deep chocolate no soap
and that nitpicky members
Of the club not caring for relations
any cut to be liked
lard to have stroked
Who else wanna be a dog
Itty bitty not much sense
words sounds to dispense
rhythm is a
