deviantArt Spotlight Review

One of the critical ways I deal with writer's block or search for inspiration is by perusing through deviantArt. In this blog post, I review one such piece, Chinese Monestary by Daniel Kvasznicza. Link to blog post:
http://signalsfromthearc.blogspot.ca/2013/02/deviantart-spotlight-inetgrafx.html

Writing a fantasy manuscript with an japanese-esque setting, this piece was an instant draw. That he is Canadian as well, and works as a graphic artist for a company with a slew of recognizeable projects just adds weight to my appreciation for this and Daniel's other work. I'll be damned if I know how to pronounce his last name though.....

The Whole "PC Police" Thing, and Why It's Ridiculous

Another post about bigotry in society:

One of the main things I hate about the phrase “politically correct,” however, is that it’s just plain wrong. The “politically” part of it implies that “PC” means being polite/tactful to the world in order to avoid getting people mad (which, again, patronizing). But if you look at the way the world actually works, particularly in America, the actual politically correct thing is to be a white straight cis-gendered Christian man who doesn’t make any effort to make sure the issues of women, POC, QUILTBAG people, or anyone else are a part of his platform.
