 |  | Show Off Your Best at the Bee Hive  [ASR] A Place to find Activities at the Bee Hive! Now CLOSED until the next activity!  |
| (4.5)| Hallo StephBee ! I will be reviewing your forum "Show Off Your Best at the Bee Hive " for "Game of Thrones"  Content: Created on April 11th, 2006, this forum was designed to allow writers the opportunity to showcase their best writings in any given genre prompt for the month. Pluses:Ah, good times! I remember this one, Steph, and I might have submitted or two things? Can't remember. Still, this brings back so many memories! Perhaps this was the precursor to "The Bard's Hall Contest" or were both running at the same time? Either way, my thoughts! The forum shows off its features in two newsletters, which is always a great way to get more visibility and show off how well run it was. The header image is definitely a throwback to the good ol' days of graphic designs and that familiar yellow background that was the staple of the old site layout. Love the ribbon as it encourages writers to present their best work. We didn't have a lot of the WritingML extras and codes/links etc we have now, so we had to do our best to beautify our forums as best as possible, didn't we? Nothing too flashy here with your set-up though. You go straight into the rules and what the contest is about. Every month is a new genre with a max of 4,000 words to be submitted (that's a mini-novel there, Missy!  . Members had a month to get their items ready and the rules/guidelines are clearly stated. There are links interspersed that connect you to the fund bank, should you wish to donate anything, as well as a link to the judging guidelines (very helpful}, and a list of the previous winners. A bit sad to see most of the last set of winners items are all now invalid, but then again this was last opened 11 years ago!  And, of course, you gave your reason for why it had to be shut down. Life can get in the way sometimes, and tough choices have to be made.   You've always been such an integral part of Writing.com, and this is just one of the reasons why. Your encouragement of your fellow writers in any way possible is very much appreciated. Keep it going, my fellow Dragon!
