Winners of my past copmp, as well as the promised journal features, can be viewed below my short blurb. Basically I won't be on DA for a long time, possibly only to upload a giftart I've been trying to work on. It's hard to do any art now as I am completely uninspired due to recent but severe events. Issues include being fired and partner problems but I won't be expanding upon either of those.
Now then, onto the winners.

Captain-sam says about herself: "I am fond of animals and have quite an objective view, therefore I am fond of constructive critique. My only desire is to draw my emotions, interests and the things I love. I hope to impress you one day!"

And kotta-kinezumi with the entry







WaitingI'm waiting for you,
in a place so silent, so still...
Yet so alive.
I'm here alone,
but I hear the leaves falling
and see them dance in the wind
I'm feeling empty,
wondering if you'll ever come
or if I will watch the trees shed their covers
Will you stop my heat from turning cold
and melt away the hurt I'm feeling today?
Do you remember I am here waiting?
I hear the leaves snapping beneath your feet
and your voice telling me that your here
that you're never going to leave me
You tell me not to doubt,
that you will stay with me through winter
and walk with me in spring
