Past Carnivals:
The purpose behind CC is to compile links to various creative writing works from all genres. For those of you who are not familiar with Blog Carnivals . . .
A Blog Carnival is a particular kind of blog community. There are many kinds of blogs, and they contain articles on many kinds of topics. Blog Carnivals typically collect together links pointing to blog articles on a particular topic. A Blog Carnival is like a magazine. It has a title, a topic, editors, contributors, and an audience. Editions of the carnival typically come out on a regular basis. Each edition is a special blog article that consists of links to all the contributions that have been submitted, often with the editors opinions or remarks.
There is so much stuff in the blog-o-sphere, just finding interesting stuff is hard. If there is a carnival for a topic you are interested in, following that carnival is a great way to learn what bloggers are saying about that topic. If you are blogging on that topic, the carnival is the place to share your work with like-minded bloggers.
In this case, like the title suggests, this carnival is about showcasing your creative work. Writing is a lonely profession and sometimes it’s hard to meet other writers in your genre; that’s where Write Anything comes in. Here’s a place where you can sit down, have a cup of coffee and share your creative talents. It can be informative, funny or inspiring. And it doesn’t even have to be a recent post. Dig through your archives, or write something new, it’s entirely up to you.
The CC will be held every second Saturday of the month here at Write Anything. Depending on popularity, the CC might be hosted at various blogs in the future, we’ll see how it goes.
The CC will be divided up into the following categories:
Fiction
Nonfiction
Poetry
Essay
When you submit your link, please indicate which category your submission falls under.
