Feather Spiral 1,892 December 8, 2011 #1 Share December 8, 2011 As quoted from my PM to Twi: Quote In my experience, people tell you not to get artistic, not because they actually think they don't need it, but just to avoid getting overloaded with a mass of crap of terrible quality. (I dunno about Canada, but in France, clowns will occasionally come to children's hospitals because children have spirits too.) I don't know if that's the case with any of the children at that hospital, but I know I've always loved poetry. I regret not having gotten more of that during my childhood, and if there's anyone like me in that hospital, I don't want them to feel the same way when they're my age. Done with the emotional shit, moving on to the real thing. Yes, anyone can read and share it since it's made public, but my initial intention was for that particular hospital's patients, and I won't let anyone forget that. Also check the tags, cause it's true. I take writing commissions.

One of the first things that stood out about this place to me was the fact that it didn't suffer from board clutter due to having boards and/or subboards for every topic under the sun. Considering this is solely a pony-focused community, I don't know if I could see a general writing board getting nearly enough use to justify its existence.

Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 December 9, 2011 #3 Share December 9, 2011 (edited) Well the Everfree Forest is the perfect place for general writing...Octavia's Hall should remain as pony content only Edited December 9, 2011 by Lady Rarity Pony LRP's opinions are subject to change without notice.

Feather Spiral 1,892 December 9, 2011 Author #4 Share December 9, 2011 Then we could have a sub-board for creative writing. Or a prefix in the Everfree Forest, as with Debate. Dammit, do I have to do all the thinking... I take writing commissions.

Viscra Maelstrom 3,718 December 9, 2011 #5 Share December 9, 2011 i think that a general "writing" tag for Octavia's hall is just enough to be added. because none of the other tags are specifically limited to just pony content, such as music (which i'm sure several people here have posted content of, that's not pony-related for the most), video, visual art... yet there's only one tag for writing, and that's fan-fiction. okay then, so nevermind the fact about art in general, and just about pony-related content. fan-fiction is still too limited for pony-related writing. what if someone wrote some lyrics about a specific pony? what if someone wrote a poem or prose about Equestria? the only thing they can put that in is in the "other" prefix, which, i'm gonna say is complete and utter BS. even if the fandom is relishing itself in fan-fiction, there's still more to writing about MLP than just fan-fiction. knowing Feld0 a bit back there on that other forum, i have to say i'm honestly surprised that he still haven't made it in his power to add a prefix for writing in Octavia's Hall, despite being prompted about it before, albeit it's only been done so by me and FS, prolly. that's the sole reason i haven't re-distributed my writing here, pony-related or otherwise: because there's no prefix i can put either of them under here.

Feather Spiral 1,892 December 9, 2011 Author #6 Share December 9, 2011 LOL the irony, for a group focused on love and tolerance, we're not exactly tolerant of any sort of writing other than fanfiction. XD Still, Feld0 found a way to give them the poem, so he's willing to get things done. He just needs a reminding nudge, because of IRL matters constantly buggering him, I imagine.

Crispy 5,563 December 9, 2011 #8 Share December 9, 2011 Isn't naming the thread "HAY GUISE I ROTE A THING" enough? Then again, I've never used tags when making a thread, and I barely give them a glance when I open a thread, because the name of the thread informs me of what I'm looking at. Anyway, not a bad little poem, FS. I'm sure some kid will enjoy it.
