Can you use the word writing as a plural?

The gerund (verbal noun), writing does have a use for the plural form 'writings'. The term 'Writings' or 'The Writings' (note the capitalization) is a modern term for Hagiographa, the third of the three divisions of the Hebrew Scriptures, composed of Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Song of Solomon, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther, Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, and Chronicles.

I could find only one dictionary (oxforddictionaries.com) that also gave the definition as a Word for books, stories, or other written works.
