If you were invited here, it means that I want you to collaborate in its creation. One of the first files that I will be uploading is the WriteClub manifesto itself. So many people who read it had their own ideas of what should and should not be in it, so I thought it would be a good idea to see what it would be like if everyone could have their say. That is, after all, the Write Club spirit.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-left: 2em;">My intention is not that this should turn into 'writing by committee', although one may be inclined to think so. Instead of a wikipedia-style homogeneity, I'd much rather see members trying to differentiate themselves more in their writing, so that this could end up looking like the personal journal of a Multiple Personality Disorder patient. Individuality is also part of the Write Club spirit. We don't need to identify ourselves or make this a dialog; it should be clear what the viewpoint is.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-left: 2em;">Think of it as an inner dialog for someone who has the viewpoints of several different people altogether.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-left: 2em;">There is a Dreams section for members to post dreams that they've had. Other members are encouraged to add notes explaining what certain parts of dreams are referencing. This is just one example of the possible uses for this service.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-left: 2em;">I hope that this project develops into WriteClub 2, which I have been planning for some time.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="margin-left: 2em;">If you're interested in becoming a part of this small community you can e-mail me at HousesOfApollo@gmail.com <a class="wiki" title="email:HousesOfApollo@gmail.com"></a>. The only real requirements are an open mind, a serious commitment to creativity, and respect for the work of others. A willingness to create entirely new ideas for yourself instead of merely adopting a philosophy would also be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <div id="subPageDiv" style="border: 1px solid tan; padding: 2px 10px 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 250);"> <h4>Subpages</h4> <ul> <li> <p><a href="/pages/1863840" title="WriteClub Official Notebook" class="wiki">WriteClub Official Notebook</a></p> <ul> <li> <p><a href="/pages/1864590" title="Brainstorms" class="wiki">Brainstorms</a></p> <ul> <li> <p><a href="/pages/1864634" title="Chainsaw Jugglers" class="wiki">Chainsaw Jugglers</a></p> </li> <li> <p><a href="/pages/1869866" title="Future Tense" class="wiki">Future Tense</a></p> </li> <li> <p><a href="/pages/1899528" title="Loneliness Vrs.
