Can art and photography submissions be featured, because I heard that they can't for some reason. If this is true, why?

It is true that they cannot be featured.

The reason is, for a very long period of time, Art/Photography dominated the featured works block. There were only 1 or 2 pieces of prose/poetry featured at any given time, and sometimes there were no written pieces featured. Because this is the Young Writers Society, the mods decided that it didn't reflect well to have art/photography featured on the home page, so it was restricted to lit works only.

Oh, okay.

You walk into this room at your own risk, because it leads to the future, not a future that will be but one that might be. This is not a new world, it is simply an extension of what began in the old one. It has patterned itself after every dictator who has ever planted the ripping imprint of a boot on the pages of history since the beginning of time. It has refinements, technological advances, and a more sophisticated approach to the destruction of human freedom. But like every one of the super states that preceded it, it has one iron rule: logic is an enemy and truth is a menace.
