Do we have anywhere to post this sort of stuff?
I've seen it on sister guilds and I was wondering if we have one ourselves.
I can't seem to find it.

I'm proficient in several different magical styles, but I don't tend to write down what I do, ever. Each situation calls for its' own unique approach - I never expect a "one spell fits all" sort of deal.
Spells online tend to be generic, and sort of useless unless you know how to alter them into things more suited to what you need. In which case you are probably already skilled enough to write your own spells,
and don't need to be using someone else's crib notes, so to speak.
I don't know how Sanguina feels about spells and 'Book of Shadows' forums, myself - she's the owner, and she'd have the final say on adding such a thing.
Myself, I'd never use one.

I found the online BOS within the other Forums a good refference as to what I could include within my own BOS.
I'm having a rather hard time figuring out what to put into it, Although Sanguina did offer some advice and I plan on starting one on Samhain Night, at least on the night I'm doing my gathering.
I do Agree with you about the spells online, And not a lot of them are creditable unless you know what you're doing.

I don't see the point in having one, as one should write one's own spells. We can discuss spellwork, and if someone is enquiring about a particular sort of spell for inspiration there's no harm in posting some ideas to help them out, but I don't consider forums or threads dedicated to just sharing spells "appropriate" for this guild so they would be closed and/or deleted.
Feel free to start up a discussion on creating a book of shadows, though. I'm sure people will be happy to give you ideas on how to create or organise yours.

Thank you Sanguina. I never thought of that before O.o

To the one that I serve I have three books. One for my Temple training with my own ideas and experiences added to it, one of the Temple as it is, and my personal path. I will give my all

I keep a couple of BoS's. I keep one as a hard copy, and I also use it as a "travel" book for whenever I'm going someplace and need to bring my BoS, but can't bring my other one.
I also have a pair of computer files, one being a full document with an excess of 30 + pages, the other a folder containing an "exploded" version, where each category of information is separated from the rest to reduce strain on my computer's system when opening it.
I have been looking for a better way to organize the information I have though.
I've also been looking for advice on what all I should keep in it.
