What kind of weekly/monthly threads would you want to see on !writing? (beehaw.org)

For example, /r/writing has weekly critique and check-in threads, and /r/writingprompts does a theme-based writing contest every Thursday.

I'm no mod, by the way - I'm just interested to know what others would like to get from a writing community like ours, and I think it would be cool if we could start something which could bring this community together regularly.

A weekly or even fortnightly writing group thread would be HUGELY good. Not only on an individual level, but also on a community level.

I'll echo the idea of "bad writing" being the goal. It's easy for everyone to get caught up in the big issue of "Is this good enough?" Vs "Am I having fun?"

I might actually make this my own weekly thing. Give me a bit and I'll make my own post on this.
