Yeah, it is really nice to have the opportunity to take certain electives that pertain to what you want to do in your future when it comes to high school. I know my friend is taking a gap year in Italy right now and I think their system is a lot like yours. He only goes to school for a few hours, whereas here we go for seven. So we have to do the basics, but then we have two or three openings for other options as well.

Yeah, I'm about to go into my sophomore year of college. I haven't taken any journalism classes yet since I got here, but I do have a very good friend who is the editor and chief of the newspaper where I go and he's begging me to be an editor. We were in journalism together in high school, so he knows me pretty well. I did it for all four years in high school, so I'm pretty familiar with the journalistic world.

I totally see where you're coming from on that one. I think if you believe enough in your talent and are passionate enough about following through with it, you can do whatever you want. I'm going to major in journalism and minor in creative writing as of right now, so I totally understand your viewpoint.

Hey there! Ahh, that was such a nice message you just sent me. I really want to make sure my readers know how much their support means to me. It drives me absolutely crazy when authors don't respond to any feedback they receive because it's like, "Really? We write Harry Styles fan fiction, not New York Times Bestsellers." I legitimately stalk every vote and comment I receive and just want to be able to say a simple thank you to everyone who encouraged me to push through just one more chapter, which eventually turned into the final one. I might not have otherwise found the inspiration to keep it going as long as I did. 
          
          You are the second person to make a "hope to see your book sometime in the future" comment to me today and it really just makes my heart burst with joy. That's so very kind of you to say and I really appreciate that. I'm so very happy that you enjoyed Hearts Like Ours that much and it's really cool that you're enjoying Broken Things so far as well! I'm excited to be moving on with that one right now, so your enthusiasm means a lot to me. 
          
          Thanks again! Feel free to talk any time, I'm super friendly(:
