Gms Vs. Authors. Fight!
So, I've been thinking lately about BZPower's writing scene. Many people say that their writings are ignored and that authors on BZP don't get the attention they deserve. As examples of BZP's great writers they say GaliGee, Bonesii, Spirit, and xccj. I, however, feel like they leave perhaps the most vibrant part of writing out of the equation.
RPGs.
Let's face it. More people play RPGs than regularly write and read epics. They are a large and integral part of the community. But why are people such as Koname, Celeste, Robo, and Dr. Bionicle left out of the spectrum of great BZP authors? In fact, I think the only GM that is widely respected among the Library Denizens is Beliwa.
So, my question to you is this. Are GMs authors, just of a different writing style? Does the name Kumata Nuva deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as Takuta-Nui? Are RPGs truly a form of writing? And which, authors or GMs, are the true "best writers" on BZPower?
