# 200 in "Fun and Games"
I thought a writer’s corner would be enjoyable, so here I am. But I do not want to limit this thread to creative writing. Please share your art: writing in all forms, photography as art, photos of art (sculpture, paintings, fashion, landscaping etc.), links to audible and/or visual performances, non-PSC contest-submitted digital art…etc, etc, etc. (Please do keep pictorial posts relatively small and/or as links—and compliant with PSC standards!)
One person’s art can often spark many other people’s imaginations. I am hoping this thread will not only provide another outlet for sharing creativity, but will develop into a source for ideas and inspiration. If something somewhere has motivated your art, please include that information, both to give credit, and to possibly inspire other people.

Heaving waves bullied the floating docks, yanking and shoving them against the steadfast pier. Unidentifiable vegetation and splintered timbers ominously haunted the ever-rising tide. The suffocating inferno above glowered ever closer. A devastating explosion of lightning and thunder ripped apart the very firmament! A wrathful torrent, like coffin-seeking nails, hammered the earth. The ravenous storm had finally succumbed to its voracious thirst for blood…
