Content Warning

UPDATE; We're fine :)


Ahoy Hearties,

I've privatized this blog for the moment because I just received a warning email from blogger saying that they are going to delete all blogs that contain 'adult content'. I am currently in talks with them about what counts as 'adult', seeing as we do not showcase any pornographic or violent for the sake of violence material. To be blunt, though, it's seeming like they're going to delete any and all blogs with any sort of 'adult' content, including swearing. I've privatized this blog so only we can read it at the moment, and removed the adult content warning. Hopefully they'll get back to me and we can open it back up again. But this is just to say: Please save any and all important writings that you have on here in case we do indeed get deleted.

Attention all Heart Rapists

It has come to my attention - my personal attention - that the original post was worded very strongly and far too assertive for both what the club stands for and myself as a member of the group. For this I apologize. I won't go into details but my mind was not set right that night. I was impulsive, decisive and tyrannical and even Garaway can't pull that shit off with good reason. What should have been suggestions came out as orders and again, that's not what the club stands for.

What we do stand for, though, is writing. And writing to the best of our abilities, and sharing something we want others to hear. That's what The Creative Writing Club was about. A bunch of people gathering together to share something special.

Which is why I still stand by my original post that everything posted here should be something you're proud of. Something you want to share, something you're willing to print out and drag all the way to Westmount Library and read in an almost soundproof room we stole from a group that didn't show up at the last minute, fifteen minutes before closing time.

And the group is about feedback. We're friends. We're writers. We're readers. We're editors. All four are inseperable. Take the time to show some love, because everyone knows not only how painful it is to write and display to an empty room, but also how unhelpful it is. Which for a writer, is probably more scarring than any rape could make.

The Creative Writing Club was about sharing.

The Heart Rape Club should be about the same thing. So let's share.

Getting Started

->You can post anything as long or as short as you want for your date, about any subject, any theme.
->Optional assignments will be posted Saturday Mornings for the arriving week.
->When you post your piece, please tag your name, so as it becomes easier to divide our work.
->Adult content is on, so don't shy away from profanities.
->Try not to use the tags for anything else, I think we can all imagine the tagging tool clogging up the sidebar if all of us started using multiple ones.
->Take one day, and stick to it. Do not post on other days.
