PurpelBlur and I "met" shortly after he got his dA account. It was an instant friendship. He and my daughter, AreteEirene and I became fast friends and dA buddies. We have never looked back. As part of Project Educate, I would like to share with the community, an interview with PurpelBlur
You are the Ringmaster, and will forever be known as such: Please tell the community how you got the name and what it means.
When I was first becoming a Gallery Director (later Gallery Moderator) it was decided that I'd not have a specific gallery to look after and there should be a name to define this post. moonbeam13 and I brainstormed on it for a bit but it was lolly who thought of "Ringmaster". I helped the team in any way possible, hosted contests and challenges, and did what I could to promote community.
How long were you the head of Projects? Was there a reason you stayed so long?
I believe it was for about the last year of my term. I stayed because, simply, I truly love and enjoy being a part of this community.
What was the most interesting thing about being a volunteer for Projects? Least?
Most interesting was discovering holidays I have never heard of prior and then learning about them. I can't think of anything least interesting specific to the Projects gallery.
Did you have a lot of dArama as Projects CV?
Not very much. However, people would get relatively upset if a certain holiday was missed, but I did what I could to fix that.
What advice would you give to a deviant who would be interested in becoming Projects CV?
Have fun with it; don't worry about messing up. If a project/event/holiday doesn't exactly jive with your beliefs be willing to, if not embrace it, learn about it and share that knowledge. Be as unbiased as possible. Oh, also, have fun.
What else would you like to add?
I send you all much love and well wishes for the future. Celebrate and cherish each day. Learn. Explore. Love. Smile.
Thanks for the interview. And, of course, !
