I thought these might interest some of the arty farty types on here

www.conceptcupboard.com is a site where companies put up briefs for graphic design and marketing projects, you pitch your designs and ideas and the best one gets paid.

www.civicboom.com is something similar but for written content. As far as I can tell you don't get paid and there aren't any big clients, but it's a way of getting your work out there.

What's a little sin to see us through?

 
Nice idea, Annie.

I'm on a project group at work to create a kit for people wanting to set up creative writing workshops, and as part of that we're having a look at online resources. If anyone's interested I'll post some on here when it's finished.
Whiskey, painkillers and speed will carry me there.....

Heres a few good ones for writers:

www.WeBook.com, i was a very active member on there until they changed direction..it's gone from a bustling community to something similar to VR these days.

www.inkpop.com, More for younger writers but it's a very active place.

www.authonomy.com, a really good site if you can get through all of the self publicity some of the members constantly do, and if you get to the top of the pile cold even land a book deal with harper collins.
Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway


 
 
Steve-Dave: Better the devil you know, though. How many of the sensible people would ever vote for Romney?
Walt Flanagan: They're going to be non-votes, not votes for Barack.
Steve-Dave: I doubt it. I'd say that with some of the stuff Romney will come out, people could vote Barack just to prevent Romney getting in.
Walt Flanagan: Well, he's so clearly a terrible human being.
Walt Flanagan: He's going to gaff his way out of the White House, even as the President is hated from all the sides of the spectrum that aren't starry eyed.
Walt Flanagan: The GOP has gone too far towards the Stupid Bigot side of things, it may take years to get back.
Walt Flanagan: I just think people who say that Obama would have to f*ck a white woman on television to not get elected are missing the danger.
Steve-Dave: Oh I think Romney will still give Obama a run for his money. Romney flip-flops a lot. Could appeal to a wide enough base overall to run it close
oatibix: Something's happened here.
Steve-Dave: This is what happens when you leave Colin.
Steve-Dave: And I don't mean "This is what happens when you leave, Colin", I mean this is what happens when you leave Colin. I left Colin and became all sensible and sh*t
Steve-Dave: I'm an equivocating motherf*cker
Rayanne Graff: Yeah, you're sh*t. i'm not sure about sensible, though.
Jimmy: Holy sh*t everything's Barry.
Steve-Dave: Everything's better!
Puffalump: Barrier
Steve-Dave: The Barryest it's ever been
Jimmy: I can't wait for more "Important Barry and changes"
Steve-Dave: Well there will be some Barry and changes coming soon, because we need more donations. It no longer just takes £10 a year to help Barry survive
Steve-Dave: It takes like... £13
