Eighteen and over at signup, confirmed. Strangers do not write with children in this study. Non-negotiable.
No revising another's chapter, ever. The past is the past. Forward is the only direction on the page.
Miss your window and the book politely continues without you. No pressure, no penalty, no explanation demanded.
You see only stories you personally helped write. No public feed. No stranger reading your unfinished work.
The grimoire lies open.
Something is guarding it.

The wizard was not dead, just bored, and boredom in a wizard is a distinct meteorological event. Villages noticed the weather first. Nobody noticed the wizard.
