Why I made these forums
Sometimes writing with other people can be very challenging and stimulating. It gives you a chance to explore new ideas, things you wouldn't have thought of yourself. Also, if you tend to get bored in the middle of what you are writing (*raises hand and says "That's me!"*), writing with someone else can give you that extra incentive to keep going--plus will usually keep you from getting bored because the other person has ideas you didn't think of.
I set this place up because forums I have gone to don't really have much opportunity to do this sort of thing outside of the usual role plays. And sometimes you just want something a little more involved than a role play.
Also... it is good to get feedback on your writing as you are going along. Sometimes you need constructive criticizm or a nudge in the right direction--other times you just need to hear that you are on the right track. This place is meant to be a place you can get that also.
But really... I was just being selfish when I set this up. I love to write and was hoping to find some people to write with. Doesn't mean that I will poke my nose into every thread that is started here... although it will be very hard NOT to! But I am really hoping to get some good challenging writing going.

Re: Why I made these forums
I guess you wanted to write what you wanted when you wanted,without the possibility of it being deleted.
Freedom to write.
Do you have a spell check on this thing.lol

Re: Why I made these forums
Yeah... that's most of it! I'm not likely to delete anything unless it is so unbelievably pornographic that it makes ME blush.
Don't think this place has a spell checker! (I am so incredibly ignorant though... ) But just about everyone I have ever written with can't spell for ****... so... No biggie.
