If you're among the truly fierce "wing-lovers," for which the recently coined and highly appropriate Greek-rooted word is pteraphiles ... then do try my own long-standing, soon to be revived and reworked, Yahoo! Group of that name.

Winged-human(oid) art is shared through the Group's mailing list, accessible through either e-mail or the Web for those who join with a Yahoo! ID.

File archives are available, including many winged works featuring comics characters, and a full 12-page classic graphic short story, "He That Hath Wings."

Two dA clubs, each with huge galleries of winged art, that I've found recently are "The Wings Club" and "Wings of Fantasy."

Thanks to all those who've visited, responded, watched!

I'd always appreciate a note or comment about one of your own winged creations, visual or literary. If you alert me of such winged art, I guarantee a comment in response. And I'll most likely fave it, as well!

I work slowly and, probably, too deliberately (and with diversions into art and political commentary elsewhere) ... so thanks for the notes of support.

I'm trying to add installments of a story following up on "A Gift on Awakening," that story being meant as a prequel. Two have long existed, two more are in the works, but all need some dramatic correlations.

And as that sparring partner of Life permits, I still hope to post them here soon.
