Have you ever had a story that you've put a ton of blood, sweat, and tears (hopefully metaphorically) into, and yet nobody seemed to appreciate the effort you've put into it, and even put it in groups that seem to be designed to run your creation into the ground? I know I have. That's why I created this group, where we appreciate those stories that others seem to tear to pieces, despite the effort the author put into it. In this group, we show the compassion that authors need in order to improve themselves and their craft. That is why our symbol is that of the Indigo Lantern Corps, who wield the light of compassion. Like the corps, we too have an oath:

Today, writers are scorned because of those too unversed to know.

Disdained, because of the those too ignorant to believe.

Despised, because of the realists who are too afraid to dream.

Misunderstood, because others are too unsure to try.

But we, as writers, know them to be wrong.

A writer is a person who dreams.

A writer is a person who wishes.

A writer is a person who escapes.

A writer is a person who lives.

A writer is a person who is not afraid.

A writer is a person who strives.

A person who expresses.

A person who believes.

A person who understands.

A person who knows.

I am a writer.

I dream of a world where anything is possible.

I wish for a world where war is just a myth.

I escape into a world where I can predict the future.

I live in a world of joy and mystery.

I am not afraid of the world I create.

I strive in the world where others give up.

I express myself in ways others dare not try.

I believe in things others are too afraid to trust.

I understand things others cannot, in a way that others cannot.

I know, in ways that others deny.

That being said, welcome to The Restored and Befriended League.
