hi, i know i haven't been active these past few days and that's for several reasons: i've been trying to crank out the end of girasol, but most importantly, i've been hugely active on twitter and instagram these past few days because this current situation is a fight that we ALL need to be involved in as much as we can. i'm so sorry for not letting you guys know about this sooner, and i hope you haven't regarded me as callous for not speaking up - i've just forgotten about this platform because there is so much going on right now and i have not had the time to address you guys the way i should.

that being said, here's information on what you can do to help. how to educate, how to sign petitions, how to give money, what to do even if you can't give money. i hope you stay safe these next few days but also, to my whites and non-black pocs, do your part in confronting the racism at home and in your communities beyond just raising awareness on social media. be active rather than performative. i will be releasing a better, more properly worded statement after this last chapter of girasol tonight. i refuse to stop writing because i hope my writing gives you comfort as we continue to fight the injustice in this world.
