Hey girlypop! want to sincerely apologize if my story caused any frustration or made it seem like I was disrespecting your work. That was never my intention! and I genuinely don’t want any issues or misunderstandings. I want to be clear, though—I did not copy your work word for word. I was inspired by a general idea ! which is very common in writing, but I made deliberate changes and wrote the story in my own voice and direction.
I have a lot of respect for the time, creativity, and effort writers put into their stories, and I would never intentionally steal or take credit for someone else’s hard work ! If anything I wrote came across differently, I truly apologize for that, because causing harm or disrespect was never my goal !! I hope this clears things up, and I appreciate you giving me the chance to explain my side.
