Corrie Nielsen InterviewFascinated by form and design from young age as the daughter of a prominent American sculptor, London Fashion Week designer Corrie Nielsen obtained a First Class BA Honours degree in Fashion Design Womenswear from the world’s most famous fashion and art institute, Central Saint Martins. She worked in bespoke tailoring followed by a six- year stint at Vivienne Westwood before launching her eponymous label.

Drawing inspiration from historical periods and combining her fascination of architectural forms and designs, she is lauded by the fashion press as a modern couturier with a truly unique aesthetic vision.

An Interview with a CanuckInterview With `Jon-Law

Let's start simple.  Tell us a little bit about yourself and your Lit life.
My territory is novels and short stories, yes. I wrote poems but they're quite amateur. I've had three stories published: The Week in A Cappella Zoo (also in print), Looking Down On Me in Silver Thought and before that in Soundzine, and Good Men Do Nothing online at Joyful! Online (defunct). I once self-publishedan early draft of a novel just to share it with friends and family in a physical incarnation.
What was your favorite part of the publishing process?
My favourite part of publishing for short stories is the acceptance letter. I have no qualms with rejection, it's part of the process and every writer needs goo
dASAW 2012 Interview: $codenamepanther:iconstaffappreciation:
dASAW Interview Series: $codenamepanther
Welcome to the second Staff Member interview of deviantART Staff Appreciation Week! As part of my role in dASAW, I had the pleasure of interviewing the fabulous, $codenamepanther. Enjoy! :dalove:
:megaphone: 1. How did you discover deviantART, and what made you stay?
I discovered deviantART back in the day when $Heidi introduced it to me. Essentially, I have known about it since it started, but I didn't join until about 3 years ago. I think the passion of the community and the amazing work I see on a daily basis has made me stay.
:megaphone: 2. Tell us the story behind your username and/or prior dA accounts.
This one is actually asked a ton. I don't have a prior account. This is my main account at this time. I have others that are used for testing things, but they are not really that exciting. $codenamepanther was kind of made up out of now

Flove Contest + 9 Entries + Prizes + CLOSEDTHIS CONTEST IS CLOSED.  JUDGING WILL COMMENCE SHORTLY.
Of the Emote Variety...
That's right, I'm holding an Emote contest!  The theme is gonna be super-lame, though:
CREATE WHAT YOU THINK FLOVE SHOULD LOOK LIKE!
Keep in mind, Flove = Fucking + Love.  Examples:
I fucking love this book, it's so good!
─becomes─
I flove this book, it's so good!
You're freaking hilarious, I fucking love you, bro.
─becomes─
You're freaking hilarious, I flove you, bro.
Why is "Flove" so handy?
You can use "flove" in any situation, at any time, anywhere.  Wanna get away with swearing at school when you REALLY love something?  "I FLOVE IT, MAN!"  No one can yell at you because you're not ACTUALLY using the swear, but it's most definitely implied. ;)  (Yes, I know, lame example/reasoning is lame. :

Weeelll, I had one in mind that I dealt with, but I had a kind of bad experience with them over a commission, so I wouldn't suggest them now XD Although there is one lots of icons I love more than any other non-pixel icons, I'll have to find out who the artist is because they are amazing <3
