Make Art/Creative its own directory

Hey all!
We’re excited to announce that we’ve rolled out the new Creative directory today!
As we mentioned before, the Creative directory features creators in our artistic categories including Art, Beauty & Body Art, Food & Drink, Makers & Crafting, and Software & Game Development. This will make it easier for both viewers that want to discover creators in these categories and creators looking to find and connect with others who stream creative content.
We expect these directories to continue to grow over time, so please keep the ideas coming. And if you believe an existing category is missing from this list, please let us know.
Thank you for all your feedback and as always we look forward to more of it. We’re looking forward to seeing you, your communities, and your creativity in the new directory!

Writing & Books is missing and would be a great addition to the categories. The author network on Twitch is growing and growning - they need a place to go.

Please books & writing as a category. This is urgently needed as the author bubble continues to grow.

Writing & Books please!
So many authors stream while writing or to talk about their books. In Germany alone we have a community of 100+ streaming authors.

Writing & Books would be great! There are so many writers streaming and it would be great to have an own category to connect with and find more people!

Writing & Books
More and more authors are active on Twitch, we already have over 100 streaming authors in our German community who stream regularly and we are getting more and more. Having a separate category for books and writing would be great!

Writing and Books please!
Alone in our German author network we have 100+ authors and Thousands of views of writers are lost in "art" and other categories.

I miss the category writing. There are several authors who stream specifically when they are writing, often chatting only during short breaks.

I clearly miss the category Writing.

As previously said, I, too, would wish for a writing category. (And perhaps also a different category for reading? Because I have a hard time looking for co-reading streams and I simply can't believe I'm the only one who would need a stream similar to co-working for reading.)
Also, are there categories for topics surrounding disability? Whenever I search for streams like that, I only find gaming (and mostly completely inaccessible games where even the preview already gives me nausea), and no streams that actually educate about disability or give disabled people a platform to connect.)

Bitte Bücher & Schreiben als Kategorie. Das wird dringend benötigt, da die Autor*innenbubble immer weiter wächst.

As previously suggested: please make books & writing their own categories!
Writers and books have been part of twitch before but due to COVID there has been a bigger move towards twitch to connect with readers and other writers through streaming or reading or talking about books.
But we are lost and sometimes get trolls or outright for streaming in other categories such as Just Chatting or Art - since what we are doing is not exactly visual art. -

Writing & Books!
Thousands of views of writers are lost in "art" and other categories. Sometimes we get hate for streaming in a catagory but without one... we are invisible.
We have over 100 authors alone in our German author network, there are many more. Please.

Fiber Arts is a tag but what about a Fiber Arts category under the Creative Directory? There are a lot of us out here crocheting, knitting, needle-felting, embroidering, cross-stitching, needle-punching, sewing, quilting, weaving, beading, tatting, naalbinding, spinning...
We definitely already have a pretty established community of viewers and I think that having a whole category dedicated to fiber arts would just make it easier for people to find all of us.
Thank you for listening to our voices and for asking for suggestions. I am excited for this change.

a cosplay crafting category would be neat

Having 3D modeling (for things like blender, Vroid, etc.) as a category would be really cool, I think! I see a lot of people doing that in Art or even Just Chatting, so having a space for them to be found easier would be pog!

physical crafting, like glassblowing, blacksmithing and woodworking. programming split into previously streamed programming languages. game design/ level design: and scriptwriting/authors, game asset artists. also keep up the hard work! you've made many dreams happen.
