Writing Tips

In a dystopian world, where reading and writing are banned, the Rebel Page Masters refuse to abandon the art of storytelling.



The Page Masters protect the last Ancient Libraries that survived the regime. Scattered far and wide across our bleak world, the Page Masters safeguard the stories that hold the power to reignite creativity and unleash the population's caged minds-something that threatens the regime's control.



The time has come for the Page Masters to recruit a new generation of storytellers to join the Secret Society of 抖阴社区rs.
