1K HEARTS, 1K BLESSINGS
And one overwhelmed, teary-eyed writer typing this through a blurry screen ಥ‿ಥ
A year ago, this was just a dream. A wild, "too good to be true" kind of dream. The kind Jerry would laugh at and call "dululu." But here we are. One thousand of you. A thousand souls who chose to stop by my little world of words, and stay. To read. To feel. To believe in the stories I tell and the characters I create. To believe in me.
I don't think I have the right words .. ironic, for a writer... but please know this:
I am nothing without you.
Not then, not now, not ever.
You are the reason I show up with my heart cracked wide open, pouring love, grief, laughter, longing — everything — into every sentence. You made this dream feel real. You made me feel seen.
Thank you for every read, every vote, every message, every silent moment you’ve spent with my stories. You may not know it, but you’ve lit a fire in me on days when I had none.
This is our milestone. And I’ll spend the rest of my writing life trying to deserve you.
With all my love, and Grattitude
~Your jerry
