Verity's Book

And a Happy... Yeah...

Yikes! It's 2018, people!

*greets you from under my three-feet-plus of snow*

I'm turning 18 this year... no, no, no *denies for eternity*

Well, it won't be for another five months *gasps in relief*

Anyway, since everyone else was doing the usual sappy end-of-year posts, I decided to succumb to the trend.

I have amazing peoples on here! Quite a few of them I met only in the past couple months. All of you are wonderful, supportive friends, whom I want so badly to meet in real life. Someday, right? I can dream.

SunnyTreasures Hi, my dear, dear mellon! You're like a comet here on Wattpad, rare but so so bright when you show up. Just your presence makes me smile.

Illeandir You are a wonderful, staunch, loyal person and I just wonder how on earth I found you. Even if your book is slowly tearing me into sad pieces.

GerithorDunedain Your fanfictions are still among the best I've found, and you're an a great, funny, sensible guy full of wisdom whom I'm not ashamed to call my brother in Christ.

Stars_Alight Your writing is brilliant, among the best jewels I've found. Yet still you are a lovely, encouraging, and humble person, and I'm glad every day that I know you.

LuckyPlum I can never, never express how much your support means to me. You're an unfailing and very dear friend, and one I would hug in a heartbeat. You "liked me before it was cool" XD

Dante_Greywolf Another staunch supporter for the past year! Your comments are always a blast to read. You love my writing (even more than I do, I think!) and yet you're never afraid to give the criticism it needs.

LKellam HIIIIII!!! You and I have so many little things in common -- oldests, Latin learners, Tolkien lovers. Thanks for being such an enthusiastic friend!

Ithildaeforever The First still holds as one of the most beautiful things I've ever read, and you are honestly one of the most beautiful, shining people I've ever met. And if not for you following me, I might never have met...

GadSul Idk even what to say, bro. You make me use more modern lingo than I ever could stand under ordinary circumstances. You make me laugh till I have tears in my eyes. You surprise me with deep insight. You teach me Korean words. *shrugs awkwardly* Love ya.

no_kidding You, dear, dear friend, amaze me. You are one of the top ranking people in the Wattpad fantasy world, and yet you have a head of rock-hard sense for all that. You are honest and insightful, and always have appreciation for others' talent. You are furthermore a firm Christian, one I'm proud to know.

Cross-Warrior I never thought, when I followed you about a year ago as a requirement for the Undiscovered Writers contest, that this would happen. Never thought I'd be reading half your books, wanting to read the others I haven't read yet, in your book club, and a judge for the latest TWC contest. And stalking all your comments on review books. XD And I'm just going to say here, you, Cross, are a fantastic person. I can't even fathom handling all you do. Hope that stupid cold clears up soon.

-The-Architect *cough* Greetings, Hierarchitect/Lewis/cool sarcastic science-y person. Looking back, I wonder at my prim little message I sent to you (can't even remember what most of it was anymore). Yet here we are. Not much else to say, except that I am eternally glad that I ever came across you and you're yet another dear friend.

Ellowyne Knew I was forgetting someone! You are one of those people it's like a spark to be around, always something new and interesting to be said. Nothing is dull when you get in on the conversation. Thanks for being the lovely and encouraging older-sister that I don't have.

Silvan_Elleth If not for you, I would still be living a life without Thaladir! *pauses* And Calithilon, too. But in all seriousness, I have loved getting to know you and your works. You can always add a perk to my day.

MonsterCupcake61176 *soft dramatic music plays* *narration starts in a deep, ominous voice* It was inevitable that, in the world of LotR fanfictions, they should all be irrevocably drawn... to... *sudden cough disrupts narration* Anyway. That was all to say, I am proud to know Maddy, who is a sensible, hilarious, and fun person, and her alter ego, who is not so hilarious and fun... well, it depends what you call fun. *stares at Aragorn one-shot* Forget what I said.

nightwraith17 You just came out of the blue. No, I'm pretty sure you came from somewhere. That's right, you were the other commenter on Maddy's book... and then suddenly you were reading my old draft stuff, and then you read The Journey, and now you're in that group of people where I can never tell which of you is my biggest fan. Right. Well, I'm awfully glad you found me. XD

DarkPH0T0N You two are the theological bombs here on Wattpad! I'm delighted to have found both you amazing apologists. Keep standing up for the truth!

District_Tribute You are some of my newest friends, but great ones nonetheless! I'm looking forward to getting more acquainted with you in the future. :D

Thanks for being in my 2017, everybody! You are in my prayers as often as I remember. May God bless your year.

(I probably missed some fifty people who deserved a mention. Please forgive me...)

I did forget someone... *drumroll* CelticWarriorQueen17 !!! *slaps forehead* I was going to tag you, but there were so many people I lost track. Anyway, you are a fantastic person who has given excellent reviews on almost all of my books. Keep writing! I need more Fiangus!
