in the most complimentary way possible i feel like ive been cursed by a wizard that lives in your game’s code or something. i used to write creatively all the time as a kid but i stopped completely when i was like ~9. i had not written anything but academic essays since until stupid Chase grabbed me by the throat for some reason?? I dont even like men???? i’m just so compelled by him for whatever reason. Just sitting here astounded. Only a little mad. thanks for apparently somehow singlehandedly reviving my motivation to write for fun after nearly 20 years LMAO
😭 I was so overwhelmed by the loveliness of this message that I almost didn't even know how to respond! I'm speechless! I am so, so happy that something in my writing and story could inspire you to write again, I completely understand how that feels and I am so unspeakably honored that Shepherds was something that could spark that inspiration and fun for you! Thank you so much for taking the time to share this, it means everything and makes me so happy to be a writer! 🥺 I am going to keep envision my story as a little tower with a wizard living inside of it, invisibly cursing random passerby when they come to visit! 😂 Thank you so much again!!! 💖💖💖
