genuinely hope my book becomes big. not because I want fame, not because I want money, but because I want my book to be someone's comfort place, a world where they can get back to and feel loved, and understood. to have characters they can relate to. to know that the author poured bits of her soul into this book. to know that this author cares about every single minority and majority.

despite my book being fucked up in many senses, I want it to feel like a warm blanket full of love. I want someone years in the future when I'm dead to sit somewhere and read my book. to annotate the pages, to dog ear them. to treat my book with love. because that's how valuable this book is to me. how valuable I want it to be to someone. I want my characters to be someone's favorite person. someone's favorite person. a character they can relate to. a character they can turn back to when they're in need of comfort. I want the reader to know that my book, my characters and this fantasy I've built in my head are always and forever a safe space for anyone who need it. comfort, joy, passion, love, sadness, anger is all what reading should be about. I want my readers to feel all these emotions toward the world, the characters and the story itself. this project maybe the most valuable thing to me. the most important thing I've ever contributed to this world. I want my book to make a difference to someone, no matter who they are. no matter their sexuality, religion, race, gender, I want someone to read my book and feel things, many things. I want this book to change people, to move people, to make people know that they can truly make a difference.
