Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.
No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.
We love art credits when possible.

Everyone is different, and that's ok. It might be worth considering however. I know for me, the negativity will linger until I express it. Having another person around also acts as an emotional regulator. Their emotional reaction to your stories acts to restabilise your own.
Negativity and negative thoughts often grow in the shadows. By pushing straight into them, you can often resolve and disperse them. They exist to make you confront something. Once you've done that, their existence is no longer required, and it's easier to let them go.
A few drinks, or some ice-cream traditionally helps this process.
As I said, everyone is different, so what works for others, might now work for you. It's worth considering however, if it can help free up the good memories.
