First off let me say, "Wow!" We have so many new members and the number of submissions has gone up so much. Lets not forget how awesome the art has been too. I have also cleaned up the New This Month folder and added some more art to the Featured folder. If anyone feels the need to comment on who or what is in the featured folder please send me a personal note. I'm always open to feedback from the group Minions.
Next off I want throw a little attention to freyj.deviantart.com/ and some of his work starting with freyj.deviantart.com/art/Final… Remember Minions if any of you are doing something even for another group or participating in a contest were you need votes let me know and I'll send out an A.M.E.N. alert.
Final item is in regards to the annual contest. I'll probably not send out the rules and start date till the 1st of July. I'm having trouble securing a first place prize. Minna was so busy that getting another watercolor from her was out of the question (and I even begged really good, well I thought I did). I also lost the contract I had for one of my jobs. So money for the group is short. I was able to write off cash spent on the group as sponsorship because I was self employed. I will be needing to schedule a surgical procedure soon too (don't worry nothing big). So I hope you all are not too upset if I put off the contest for a month later.

A Redtail's Dream Week
Greetings all Minnions,
From June 18th-24th we will be holding our very first aRTD week alongside the SSSS forum https://ssssforum.com/index.php?topic=961.0 .
We all love SSSS of course, but it's nice to get an excuse to enjoy Minna's older comic, and we hope that a lot of you will have fun taking part. There is a prompt for each day of the week, which you can interpret as you wish, and participants may submit as many or as few as they want to, and in any creative medium they feel comfortable in (art, craft, writing, cosplay, music, interpretive dance, etc. ).
The prompts are:
June 18th - Practice
June 19th - Fire
June 20th - Dream Catcher
Shameless promotion of some friends.
I just found out a few days ago that a good friend (who has also inspired my writing and my willingness to try founding a group) is doing a Kickstarter to get his book published. Kafelnikov here on Deviant Art or Geoffrey Thomas in the real world has written a book titled, The Wayward Astronomer. It can be read here on deviant art starting here, http://kafelnikov.deviantart.com/art/The-Wayward-Astronomer-Ch1-199650110 .
If anyone is interested in supporting his endeavor or helping spread the word then here is the link to the Kickstarter, https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kafelnikov/the-wayward-astronomer-a-dreamkeepers-story
Happy New Year! and stuff
I hope this blog finds you all in good spirits and the year ahead looking bright.
I would like to apologize for my absence from DA. I started a new job so I have a part time day job and a part time night job to deal with. (plus Fallout 4 came out, sorry) I logged on once since December 1st and now and got frustrated with the lag on the site and logged off 15 minutes later. Does anyone else have this issue with DA especially the comments and writing journals? It takes me forever because it'll just stop typing and when it finally catches up most of the letters didn't register. It is very annoying as I'm a hunt and peck typist and won't notic
The winners are...
Drumroll (with Kazoo accompaniment) please.
Third place is SSSS/Pushing Daises Crossover by claireofcydonia. http://claireofcydonia.deviantart.com/art/SSSS-Pushing-Daisies-Crossover-554856697 The bright colors and magnificently executed costumes (plus the fact that I have seen the show) made this a solid entry.
Second place goes to Into The Unknown by etebalfana. http://etebalfana.deviantart.com/art/Into-the-unknown-557209064 The warm autumn tones and traditional skills on display pull the viewer into the scene seamlessly. Also props for keeping the Hannu and Ville flame burning in the perfect storm that is the current SSSS frenzy. (Not

Huh, didn't even know the contest was an annual thing, but definitely no problem having it later. I'm sure I can't be the only student here with more free time later on in the summer Dunno what the surgical procedure is, but I hope it goes well and makes your life easier afterwards ^_^
