The "Ongoing in Public Forums" view gives you a snapshot of forum activity across all forum categories. No matter what forum you have posted to, the thread will come to the top of "Ongoing in Public Forums".
That said, the fact that I had to hunt for those +Thread buttons at places bugged me too. Here's what I have just done — a quick five minute modification — now available under "Forum Zones" in the submenu. That's now your posting headquarters for all categories, one short click away.
What I have done below is copied a "cat_medium" category format HTML snippet from skin_categories.php, pasted it into the Forums module's overwrite skin, and typed in a couple of lines of HTML to add in the thread link for each individual category.

There is also a link for adding threads in the Forums module index page, as below:

When you click +THREAD from here, you will be able to choose the forum category from a dropdown in the posting view. The Fusion front page itself doesn't have a direct "Add Thread" link. When we next roll in more upgrades to Wiccle.com, I'll make it a point to add a content sharing dashboard for each user into the Fusion index.
I have tagged your suggestion and the contents of this post as an accepted request.
If you have more suggestions on how to improve our accessibility and content sharing features, please keep sharing.
