Holy Crap. A/N

Guys... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 15K!!!
Honestly, I've never had this much attention on anything. I have no idea how to respond. I'm literally speechless!

I seriously never put much faith in my writing like that. I never thought I deserved the views and I really still don't. This is always just something I did to pass the time as a way to channel my inner love of writing and to cope with stress and mental illness.

When I started this book I was in Foster care, I was trying to adjust to being an actual teen who didn't have to always look after her kid brother and have no time to herself. I was very thankful that my conservative Christian foster mom allowed me to fall into this rabbit hole of criminal minds. I think she only did because she saw that it gave me a new life. (That's weird probably, but it's what I needed at the time and it got me through a lot of lows.)

I was the most confident in my writing I'd ever been, and this was my most consistent work. Eventually after I graduated high school, I got very busy with life and lost interest sadly. I found a boyfriend, I thought I was in love, found out the hard way it was toxic and still stayed, I stopped writing for a long time. After we broke up I still couldn't write but then I met my husband, got pregnant, and found Supernatural. I was happier, and he really worked me back into writing again and around this time is when this particular book started really taking off. After my daughter was born I got the courage to put my stuff out there again, but now I feel stupid. I lost my magic touch, and my way with words, but I want so badly to be putting my energy back out into the world again.

I'm trying to work on things again and I'm writing down my ideas and dreams as well. I've also been downloading vocabulary apps to just learn again and I'm reading more.

I'm so sorry for the little vent session, but I say all of that to say this: I've been watching these numbers go up in disbelief over the last few months from 2k to 5k, and 9k to 15k and I'm so very thankful that all of you gave my first real baby the love you have and I still feel as if I don't deserve this and probably never will it gives me hope that I really can do this again. I'm planning to start watching Criminal Minds over from the beginning soon. As I get into that again I'm going to be updating this book again as well as as my Supernatural one.

So again, thank you all, so much. You'll never know how much I love and appreciate all of you.
