hi -- this is very much out of the blue but years ago (back when you were still writing harry potter fic lol) I came across your work and got a lot out of it, especially because I'm from a very conservative area so it was the first "queer" literature I'd ever come across. recently, I was thinking back to the person I was then and how lucky I was to have mostly been interacting with well-meaning, positive people, and I wanted to thank you for being so incredibly kind to me when I was so young (in retrospect, definitely too young to be reading your work!!!) when you really didn't have to be. I do think you're genuinely being part of what's made me into a reasonably well-functioning individual who's comfortable in themself and their queerness today. there's honestly no guarantee you remember me at all, and I wouldn't fault you for forgetting me lol, but I did want to thank you nonetheless. I wish you all the best in your pursuits and look forward to reading all your writing that I've missed soon!
