Here's the deal. There are many things that I have dreamed about for this site- most of which we cannot do with our current member count. I just thought I'd put it out there all of the things that I want to eventually do for SQ. You can think of it as a resolution list, but for a long period of time. Eventually, I hope we accomplish all of them! The things at the bottom of the list are the biggest goals that need the most work. Some of these are fantasies- but who knows, we might some day do it!

• Be active again. XD You knew it was coming, come on.
• Start WikiStories up
• Grow like cancer. That was coming too. Now ending the predictability.
• Grow enough that we need a moderating team
• Publish members in a book(well, technically I am published in a book but it was with other people. XD)
• Buy ad removal and sell ad space to Project Wonderful (go Google it. <3)
• Design more items for the shop, and make people AWARE that there IS a shop.
• Be in a news story
• Start our podcast
• Publish our own book (a Freedom Writers thing, y'know?)

More I'll probably add later.



I don't know if you guys realize this, but we are the oldest writing forum in EXISTENCE, one of the biggest (post-wise, not memberwise). We CAN do this! Think about how far we've come. I doubt any of you know about this, but in 2004 SilverQuill was called OwlNet, and was run via a Freewebs site with a total of one piece posted on it. It was then converted to a JConserv board (the system no longer exists, unfortunately) then eventually renamed SilverQuill.

Did you know, also, that Pandora's Closet, the biggest graphics site around (http://forums.pandoras-closet.net/index.php) with a whopping 10,574 members is YOUNGER than us? Granted, I did start the site when I was ten, but still. ^^










*this was back when we did awards every season btw.*


Do you oldies remember THIS PIECE OF AWESOME???
































I used to have many, many more old pics, but they all have run off...:(



If you're wondering what brought on this bout of nostalgia, I was cleaning out my Photobucket. >.<

We can do it!

I've been trying to be more active lately, and I'm starting a writing society-type-thing at school, so that may help recruit new members.

Try getting acornrack.com affiliates. They have oodles of roleplaying forums and a lot of people there are (obviously) writers.

Can do! I just need to work on a write-up for affiliate applications. ^^
