@mysticloud14 thank you so much, Hun!!

I really don’t know how to start this and if you are still using Wattpad.
          Well, I was a child when I started reading dripping mascara on Episode, when the classic style was the only style, imagine that! I quickly became a big fan and ended the story. I remember waiting excited for you to update and continue reading, and as I said, I was really young when I started reading DM (about 11-12years-old).
          I eventually and for obvious reasons stopped using Episode as I grew up but never forgot your story. 
          I’m writing this right now because recently I downloaded Episode again after 5 or 6 years and obviously looked for your story everywhere (it was so hard to find! It took me so long) anyway, the thing is I started reading it all over again and istg it’s so well done. As a child I didn’t really payed attention to the narrative nor the details but now I can really tell that it’s one of the best works I’ve ever read, I read quite a lot actually (of course if I’m on Wattpad lmao) and It would be amazing if the whole story was published here, actually I came her hoping to find it ):
          Anyway, I wanted to tell you that your story will forever be one of my fondest memories growing up and will forever treasure it, It’s hard for me to believe that after 6 years I haven’t forgotten DM. 
          Thank you so much for writing such a beautiful and different story, you made fall in love with reading
          Take care <3

          As someone who lost a parent at a young age, I get Shelley way too well :/ We literally have the same fate. Sienna died of cancer, my mother died of cancer. She lost her mother at age 12-14 I think? And I lost my mom at age 13. Surely my mother didn't end up being killed, but anyway.
          I'm way too young. I don't get what it's like to lose your partner, but I do know what it's like to lose half of your heart. That's why everytime I read the first chapter, I end up crying.
          
          Family is important, guys. Do not ever give up on it...

AWWW THIS MESSAGE MELTED MY HEART AND BROKE IT AT THE SAME TIME! I can’t tell you how much it hurt to write the tragedy of #SHARK... like it makes my heart twinge to think of them ♥️ Thank you for being so loved by my story and for being so passionate about it. I can’t express how much it means to me. Mark’s ending is way more thoughtful imo and I’m frankly so proud of it but it kills me all the same because Matthew is so cheated in that ending

hey Gen Ive rencently finished DM yes Im one of your dear mascarette  I decided to contact you because Well ive lost sleep over the ending I'm bugged over the fact that the 8 life was supposed to be a lucky one yet matheew and shelley  experience grief over and over and it ends in illness and sadness so care to tell me how thats a lucky life plz i was hopping your insight would give me some sort of closure.

hi dear! I’m so sorry for the grief my story gave you. It was lucky in the seen that Shelley got what she originally wanted: Matthew, her family, professional fulfillment. But no amount of luck can erase the natural pain that is part of life. without pain, there wouldn’t be ecstasy, right? More importantly, Shelley died luckily — it wasn’t a very painful, prolonged death. She died with dignity at home surrounded by loved ones. As for that last goodbye... I’d say it was pretty darn lucky to have lived a life with SOOOOOO much love that saying goodbye would be such a source of grief. It’s all about perspective, dear. Truthfully the story could have ended at three other places. Chapter 126, when Shelley and Matthew kissed at the beach before Alfred’s birth... or Chapter 130, wedding night. Maybe even Chapter 131,  with Solomon revisiting. But as a reader, with this story being so much about the cycle of life and death, it had to end with death since so much about the epilogue was about life and it’s beauty. Thank you so much for having me write that! it was a lot of fun to reason through this, honestly. Hope the story remains in your heart forevermore and that you don’t resent me too much ♥️
