Author's Note

Originally, when all was said and done, I had totally intended to keep everyone alive. But when I finished, it felt too much like a fairy tale. (I mean, come one. Read my ending without the funeral part, and you'll see what I mean!) It was corny and obnoxious.

Eating disorders and self-harm can kill you. Ash was lucky to get out of the cycle before it killed her, but Lori wasn't. And that's realistic. It isn't cool to have an eating disorder or to cut; it's deadly.

And besides, I hate happy endings.
