Yes, our writers do need more support.. I know what it's like to have your work ignored.. I wrote an entire fiction short story, only to have it thrown to the side by people.. =/
Keep it up, everyone. Don't let anyone get you down; with perseverance comes rewards.<3
The unknown is something I take pleasure in delving into. It invites questions; questions invite answers; answers lead to knowledge. This knowledge is enough for us to love one another, so together, let's dive into the unknown..The ultimate test of love.

Never believe little of oneself.. For, with little belief, one can only do so much. If one believes he/she is capable of much more than he/she really is, then one may just break the barriers set for them and reach heights thought unreachable.
