Deviation Actions
I have removed many of my deviations. I used to think that removing deviations was a sin, something that not even Fella would forgive. Then I realized that I really need to clean up. Think about it this way: each stage of my life becomes another book. I published a book a few years ago, and now I will publish another. Another stage has been completed; I have one month of college left. I'm looking for a job, but - regardless - I will continue with a Master's Degree with English Certification. Yes, another stage certainly has been completed, and I say, "Praise the calculable march of time, ever progressing toward change!"
However, with change comes a sometimes indiscernible end, and sometimes that change is not indiscernible. Right now, I know that the old Mattiello account will become part of my most recent book. I could decide to leave a cliff hanger and bring it back up in the next book, but I am completely different now. I am not the old Mattiello. Yet, I am still Mattiello. I have decided that this account will continue as part of my business: Mattiello's Creations, which ultimately combines all of the experience and skills I have gained in the past decade of writing, researching, critiquing, teaching, marketing, editing, etc.
Take a look at the website. You'll notice that I have begun a new Magazine - an ezine really - which accepts work based upon technique, composition, and originality alone. Segregation by by the ever-impractical genre classes are not allowed. I've also set up a Facebook Page for the company as well. By the way, this is a legitimate company. Mattiello's Creations is a Sole Proprietorship small business registered with the IRS. Yes, I have an EIN.
Enough of that. The point is that I will be around to both help and promote the arts. There will be more updates later. Of course, if you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to comment below or send me a note.
Thanks,
M

Quick Update
I've been more than crazy busy. I teach eight classes at a placement facility and am finishing up my Secondary Ed Cert as an Intern. So much more to that, but there really isn't any point in actually boring any of you fine people.
Important Stuff
I've finally finished one of my children's book. You'll see that it's more of a early chapter book than anything else, but it is meant to have pictures. I'm hoping that an agent will eventually like the story enough to take it on, so enjoy it for now. If you have any kids, test this on them an let me know your thoughts! I'm sure it won't scar them all that much. :D And if you a
Info and... [UPDATE]
UPDATE: I recently removed some of my poetry to send 'em out for pub. (Unfortunately, none were picked. :shakefish: Which reminds me - anyone have any magazine/zine submission suggestions?) I will now be putting them back up again. Unless I have an overwhelming call to keep a piece in my dA gallery, I will likely be doing this a lot. After all, a guy has gotta continue to get his stuff published, right? So, you can either feel free to be annoyed with me or :glomp: me to death. :D
UPDATE OVER
Hmmmm, what to say? Should I tell you all now or let the anticipation fester and turn into seething frustration that boils over tired hearts?

Devious Journal Entry
Guess what! Because a certain someone was more than kind enough to donate a subscription to me for flyin' friggin' 3 months, I can now you my journal skin again! Isn't ~TheseKrimzonFlames (https://www.deviantart.com/thesekrimzonflames) awesome?!
Speaking of the devil/demon (pun totally intended), he brought up an interesting point via compliment that got me thinking. It's true that I love to write poetry and short stories, along with dabbling in some of the visual arts, but a lot of people seem to find my tutorials useful.
My most recent, Flashbulb Poetry: How to Write , is completely conceptual in essence but practical in technique and...well...practice. :lol:
Please, do take a l
NaPoWriMo Challenge
I've sent this challenge to my friends Facebook, Twitter, and DeviantArt.
My NaPoWriMo challenge: I didn't event think about this 'til now, but I think we can all catch up. (It's a week late, but the posts will be so small it shouldn't be too much of a bother.)
During the month of April, let's celebrate the art of poetry through your clever writing. Every day, post a small piece newly created poetry on your twitter account. With characters at a minimum, this can be moderately challenging since your words will still have to have the desired impact you wish. Even if you don't write much poetry, this is the challenge you need; writing poetry w
