FREAKS (mikasa)

A/N: 5 years of FREAKS

well guys!

wow happy 5 years of freaks. whats funny is that i wrote this when i was 15, depressed and lonely in catholic highschool and you all showed me a new zest for my craft. im aware over the years there's been a start and stop dynamic between me and writing, but what many people don't realize about somewhat of success is that after the first round, your second try is hard to come by.

its so insane to see people to this day still read this book which i do feel myself cringe toward the memory of some outdated parts yet i am not ashamed of expressing myself, and this book was my outlet. writing freaks not only enhanced my love for writing but also helped me to come to terms with being a lesbian, this book means more to me than just some fanfiction, freaks was a turning point and a significant point in my transition to becoming who i am, i couldn't ask for anything more than the love i've received for simply being authentic.

i think what has stunted my growth since is that seeing such a big number of eyes on me and wanting to lasso you all down to stick around and love everything i do just the same, but in that process i forgot why i started writing: because its how i communicate to my inner psyche.

over the years ive loved checking in on this book, laughing along with you all, even crying with you guys. so thank you.

i am currently working on a new book "LOUDER NOW" no its not a fanfiction but id like it to be my first original story that i think you all might like and yes it is wlw. im not gone, im right here, and i hope you all will be here with me too to continue to support my hobby, all the love has made and will always make the bumps in my creativity much more worth it.

i hope you all will engage with LOUDER NOW, i've been wanting to write again but nothing has ever stuck so i hope now that all my planning of this story will come full circle.

i love you guys, i miss the good old days and will forever cherish what we built together, i couldn't have done this without you.

xx, leia
