I'm a big proponent of requiring multiple styles in a competition. I
think versatility is a good thing for bards. I'm also in favor of
requiring original compositions in competitions - because I'm evil like
that. :)
However, our current performance judging sheets do not really judge the
composition of a piece, so I encourage anyone who writes songs, poems,
stories, etc., to enter them into static A&S and get them critiqued in
that venue. And you can get really involved with documentation for a
composition entry in static A&S.
