PenLightenment Intro
Welcome to PenLightenment — A Wonderful Writing Community! 💖 PenLightenment, is your question? PL, as we abbreviate the name, is an Amino community dedicated to writers! If you're a story writer, novelist, poet, or even just a reader who loves to waste their time and emotions by reading pieces that are brought to you by the members of the community, I can guarantee you: your place is definitely here! In our community, you're allowed to let your imagination run wild and write pieces about anything that comes to your mind; but be aware of the fact that we do not allow mature content: the farthest you can get is the "sensual territory" (in other words: anything that you would allow in a PG-13 movie). But otherwise, the only limit in your writing is your creativity! But what about age restrictions? How should you use trigger warnings? No worries, we've got a solution for that too. With our colour-coding system, you can easily label your pieces according to the sesitivity of your writing. It's not obligatory though — but highly recommended. Besides being able to freely share your writing with us, we have some other amazing activities for you, such as challenges & events that are hosted by the staff of the community, or the clubs. Of course, these are all related to writing; if they weren't, then why would we be a writing community? As I mentioned it earlier, we have clubs too within the community. For example: the Horror Writer's Association, the Aesthetic Writing Association, the LGBT Support Squad, the Showcasing Committee, the Fanfiction Squad, the World-Building Association, the Deep Topics' Association, the Welcoming Committee, and many more! These clubs will come with many interesting posts, challenges, events, public activities, but what is the most amazing out of all is that you can join them — but let me whisper to you, only if you are lucky enough to find the applications open. ;) And of course, as the key element of any Amino community, among all these fantastic activities, you can also find a lot of nice people whom you can befriend while staying in the community. Don't be shy, no one bites truly. The staff will ensure that you won't get hurt. Speaking of staff, let me introduce us. The moderation team is made of sixteen amazing people, all being unique in their own ways. But of course, we have so much in common too. Here's a quote from one of our lovely curators, Looni. She once said, "About admin: They protecc. They attacc. But most importantly, they snacc." Alright, maybe not all the time. But we are always open for questions and concerns, so you can freely contact us, respecting the time zones, this way not only there won't be anyone bothered at night time, but you will most likely get a faster answer too. We will do our best to answer your question or find a solution for the problem you bring to us. But hopefully, there won't be many situations that will need our help. The fewer incidents, the bigger peace. 🎀 Are you interested in taking a look to us and help the community grow? Here you can join us: http://aminoapps.com/c/PenLightenment . Aaand you can also bring friends! ;) We will welcome you all to our writing hideout with open arms, and a long message from our Welcoming Committee. We wish you a nice stay in the PL Amino! Hope to see you around! 💜 - your curator, Kristina
