my favorite author
thank you
for writing those books
where I was able to escape reality in
thank you
for writing those books
where I could be with characters who didn't hate me
thank you
for writing those books
who were there for me when no one was
thank you
for that day when I met you, and you hugged me, and you signed my copy of your book
thank you
for being the writer I always wanted to be
and I'm sorry, veronica
