Hi my Lovelies
I just want to take a moment to say something really important: thank you. Truly from the bottom of my heart thank you for supporting this story in ways I never expected.
There are a few readers I especially want to highlight because you’ve gone above and beyond in making this journey unforgettable. BillyBroughton, you’ve commented on every single chapter, answered my little questions and consistently been present for this story. Your dedication and encouragement have meant so much.
And then there’s SkyeGreen498652, JanewayOmega, and BlazingblackDragon—these three recently took the time to write long thoughtful messages about what they love about the book and how they’ve connected with the story. That kind of feedback doesnt just make me smile—it reminds me why I write and why sharing this story matters.
I also want to reflect for a moment on the journey. Since February of 2025, I’ve been steadily uploading chapters and expanding the story, even through moments of writer’s block or self-doubt. I have a Google Doc with over 600 pages of chapters, notes and ideas for the story. Your encouragement, your comments and your engagement have helped me keep going and I couldn’t have done it without you.
Even though I’m naming a few readers here I truly appreciate all of you. Every comment, every vote, every little note has been a reminder that this story matters—not just to me but to a whole community of readers who care.
This book isn’t over. There’s still so much more to come, and I can’t wait to continue sharing Hazel, Yasmina, and the rest of the group’s journey with all of you. But today I just wanted to pause and give thanks to a few special people who have made this experience extra meaningful.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you BillyBroughton SkyeGreen498652, JanewayOmega BlazingblackDragon—and to every reader who has supported, encouraged, and believed in this story along the way. You are all part of this journey, and I couldn’t do it without you.
