silwritersguildLiveJournal
The SWG's LiveJournal is no longer being considered an official social media platform for purposes of sharing announcements about the SWG. The LJ community is not closing, and we welcome LJ users to continue posting Silmarillion-related fanworks, discussions, and announcements there. However, LJ users should not rely on the silwritersguild LJ community for news about the SWG. There is more about our LiveJournal here.
Site Etiquette and Terms of Service
We have updated our Site Etiquette and Terms of Service to reflect that the only use of our site and social media should be for not-for-profit purposes. Here is the addition:
The entire Site Etiquette and ToS can be found here.
As always, if you have any questions, you can contact the moderators or comment on this post, and one of us will get back to you.

Site Etiquette and Terms of Service
We have updated our Site Etiquette and Terms of Service to reflect that the only use of our site and social media should be for not-for-profit purposes. Here is the addition:
For legal reasons, the SWG must remain strictly not-for-profit. Do not use the SWG or its social media to request or offer commissions for money. If a fanwork was commissioned, do not mention that commission. Links in your profile, the fanworks you share, or on posts to SWG social media should not point to sites where you will make a profit, such as Kofi, Patreon, GoFundMe, Venmo, and similar sites. Violations of the above will be immediately taken down.
