deviant journal posting

Yesterday I posted an event in the Deviant Art "journal space" area. I was a bit disappointed to discover that as the author you are not capable of linking items to outside sources. So that is not so beneficial or user friendly to get people to use. They would have to actually cut and paste the URL to get to whatever we are talking about. which is easy, but people move on if they cannot quickly click on a link and be there. Do any of you know of any way other way to add links?
