Seteth ik it's quite a shame. I'm hoping a new subforum that is specifically for writers could clear up problems with people using it for other purposes.
I think a thread for writers/Authors/writing discussion would be really cool!
If we had a forum/subforum for this the writing community would get more recognition on Toyhouse. Afterall, writing is a form of art.
It would be fun to do things such as:
- questionnaires
- finding editors
- getting feedback
- writing prompts
- writing commissions
- writing dumps
- Headcanons
- Roleplays
As well as just sharing ideas and general discussion on writing. The writing side of Toyhouse is very overlooked, and I believe something like this could really help people get involved and recognised.
As a writer myself I'd love for something like this!! It's a pain to find other writers and even somewhere that isn't art. Asside from the liturature section ofc.
Anytime I post about maybe a writing trade or anything involving my writing in a minute or two is flooded out because of art most of the time. Nothing against those who do art ofc, I just see writing only in the worlds subtread or liturature section and that's it.
I feel like it would be a great way for writers to grow here too, as let's face it. Writers here don't get recognition unless they're the ones approaching someone :/
If writing is a part of character creation why do we get such a small space? To me it seems like we have to kinda fight to be seen? But that's just my take, maybe I'm spoilt because of other sites I used for fanfic writing.

Yes please! I love reading people's literatures but it's hard finding people who write on this site and a forum would make it easier. I'd love more discussions on writing instead of just the like, lore & fun facts & mini RP stuff you see on the Character Discussion subforum.

I don't know if this was suggested but I think a search function for Worlds and literature would be great as well. I don't want to have to search through one by one to find something. Being able to add tags to them would help a lot.
