Dear wonderful reader,

This is the first time in my life I've ever finished a project of mine. Like, of my own free will. I love to start and stop, but I could never finish. It took me nearly 9 years to finish this damn story, and I finally did it!

If you didn't know, this story is actually a rewrite of an old fic of mine from 2012. Life occurred and happened to me, and 2 years ago, I finally decided to write this. It is genuinely one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life, and I have all of you to thank.

I'm not exaggerating when I say I put my heart and soul into this. To have received such kindness, consideration, and appreciation from random strangers on the internet has given me the will to continue on my creative endeavors, as well as an even deeper love for art, humanity, technology, fandom, and literally everything in between. I cannot stress enough how much appreciation I have for every single person who has even taken the time to read what I've put out there. Every comment, review, tumblr post, bookmark, favorite, follow, whatever it may be, is so fucking incredible to me and there have been several times where I was moved to tears at your kindness. Maybe I'm just a crybaby deep down, or just a hopeless romantic, but I've felt your kindness, and I can only hope to return the same feelings you have graced me with.

I've imagined writing this letter countless times, but now that I'm up to it, I don't have much to say other than thank you, from the bottom of my heart. This little corner of the internet has done only good for me. I also want to tell you that if you have a story to tell, by all means, and for the sake of being alive and human, let it the fuck out!

Yes, there will be a sequel!

All my love,

marzana
