Hey so I want to tell you a thing. Four years ago, I was a scared high schooler who really wanted to write fanfic but was too terrified of it being bad to actually do anything. I was also convinced that I would not, ever, become an English major. I'll be a History major, I said. I'll work in a museum. Anyway I found your Ao3 and followed you on here, and your writing is so amazing and gave me so many feelings and I was like - 1/2
[cont] aaah I want to be able to do that. Now I physically can't stop myself from writing fanfic, and it's improved my confidence in my writing a lot. And then I read some of your posts about being an English major and I kind of really wanted to be one but wouldn't let myself, and I was like holy shit thats me...well.. And guess what now I'm an English major about to graduate and basically thank you for being such a cool writer and person!
this is me, responding very late because when you sent me this I was kind of overwhelmed. because...wow, seriously, thank you. I’m seriously flattered that I could...have this much of a positive impact on your life. (I hope it’s positive and you’re enjoying yourself!)
I don’t...have a whole lot other than that to say except...thank you. really, I’m honored, and thanks for telling me. and welcome to the English major club! (and the fanfic writing club!) they’re weird places but there’s good people here.
