So this isn’t really a question, but I really appreciate the line that you wrote about how people say that you can’t choose family. I love how you counter it by saying that you can’t choose blood, but you can choose who you let into your life, and who you block out. I’ve been going through a tough situation that involves a close family member for five years, and I’m thankful that what you wrote pertains to the questions I’ve been asking myself during these years. Thank you so much for that line.
It can be so tough to grapple with deep and impactful questions like who we allow to take up space in our lives. I wish for you both patience and decisiveness when it comes to your happiness, safety, and well-being, and I hope that your family--whoever it turns out to be--loves, celebrates, and supports you in every way!
Found family is such a powerful trope in books for this reason, and I loved exploring that space in NQ. I'm honored to have been a small part of your exploration. I wish you the best <3
